Take the 2-minute tour ×  From my conversation with some of my
friends, they mention that using canola oil would be suitable
for cooking a almost "Well Done" salmon. Also, it will make the
salmon taste better.  So, I was wondering if would it make a
difference if I use other type of oil or even use butter to cook
my salmon fish and if possible, make it taste better?
share|improve this question How are you cooking the salmon? Are
you pan frying? Are you using a BBQ, and using the oil to make
it so the fish does not stick to the grill? –  mrwienerdog Oct
16 '12 at 2:23 Canola oil is essentially tasteless - why do you
think it'll make it taste better? Also, it doesn't really matter
for the purposes of this question, but "well done" and "rare"
are opposites - "well done" means fully cooked just about to the
point of being overcooked, and rare means just barely
sufficiently cooked. –  Jefromi Oct 16 '12 at 2:41 Jack, from
your other post I guessed at your meaning and removed the word
"rare". Same question as @mrw
