Das ewige Dilemma: Butter vs. Olivenöl

I’m fairly certain (Central)/Eastern Europe should be lard actually

Or bad cholesterol and bad fat vs healthy fat and good LCL.

In Pannonian plain we use neither. It’s either pork lard or vegetable oil

expected france to be all yellow

Where’s the sunflower seed oil?

So… a map showing areas where olives grow and areas where they don’t. Brilliant.

For what purpose? I’ve yet to see a German kitchen without olive oil.

I can guarantee you that Russia doesn’t use a „mix of both“. The main choice would probably be lard, goose or duck lard, then pork fat

What dilemma

*goons to this map*

Rapeseed oil is also very common in Germany

In reality in south of Italy butter + sunflower oil + olive oil are all used, depending on the recipe. Frying is only with sunflower oil and many of our meals require frying 😀
Butter is for risotto and besciamella

The map is not accurate

Ew, who would mix olive oil and butter?

/s

What dilemma? Butter is for frying eggs, while olive oil is for fancy italian dishes. For general cooking either canola or sunflower

I’m only American, but isn’t the correct answer.. it depends on what I am cooking

Like I am not putting olive oil on a baked potato or making chicken parm with butter (well maybe clarified butter, but generally using olive oil)
