What type of Olive Oil is best that doesn't have a strong flavor. Is that extra virgin?

I need it for cooking and salads.What type of Olive Oil is best that doesn't have a strong flavor. Is that extra virgin?
No - extra virgin is the strongest flavor, and it's not recommended to cook with it (it smokes at a lower temp). It would be used for salads and dipping bread into. It's alot more expensive than other olive oils........You can get light olive oil, for the mildest flavor, and for cooking. It's also the cheapest......There's also olive oil Pam to spray pans withWhat type of Olive Oil is best that doesn't have a strong flavor. Is that extra virgin?
yep go with the extra virgin olive oil it has almost a fruity taste to it and it's great with salads I think the first answer and I went to the same site and make sure you store it well in a dark place and like she said you can eat it with bread etc it definitely better then bread and butter you can also add some vinegar to regular olive oil I've done that before and your own herbs just to be creative that's always fun, hope this helped elizabeth
I'd avoid olive oil completely if you don't want a strong flavor. I'd use sunflower oil or vegtable oil.





';Extra virgin'; is a measure of the process it was made with, extra virgin being the most natural and without chemicals. It's not a measure of strength. In fact, since EVOO (*shudder*) is unrefined, it's probably much stronger than the rest.
I buy Bertolli Classico Olive Oil Mild Taste. You can also you refined coconut oil. It is solid in the jar but melt fast when heated. I use this also.
