I don't think something can actually dissolve oil...

∙ 12y agoQuite a few drug active ingredients are only soluble in olive oil. There is quite a famous example with the invention of ciclosporin (the immunosuppressive). It looked like the drug was going to have to be scrapped, since it wasn't possible to find a substance which it was soluble in in order for it to have a practical use. Then someone had the bright idea of sticking it in olive oil, probably saving thousands of lives in the process.
As far as substances found in the kitchen go, very few of them will be soluble in olive oil (or any oil, for that matter). Chocolate can be melted and combined with oil, however I do not know if this fulfils the definition of "soluble" or not.

They can be combined in an emulsion by vigorous shaking, but it separates after standing for a while.
