Yes u can if u want
For a salad, just slice the mushrooms and dice the garlic, add oil and vinegar. Salt pepper and herbs would be great. You can also sautee (lightly cook in butter) the sliced mushrooms and garlic. Then add a touch of oil and a splash of vinegar. Again salt and pepper would help.
To cook mushrooms on the stove, start by heating a pan over medium heat with some oil or butter. Add sliced mushrooms and cook them for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are golden brown and tender. Season with salt, pepper, and any other desired herbs or spices. Enjoy your cooked mushrooms as a side dish or add them to other recipes like pasta or omelets.
it helps keep the butter from burning. The oil brings up the smoke point of the butter.

Assuming that you are using edible store bought (safe) mushrooms, it's the butter you should be concerned with. Mushrooms themselves are ultra low in fat and without Sodium. A diet with an excess of Butter can easily elevate your Cholesterol (LDL) level. On the other hand, the Sodium in salted butter could elevate your blood pressure. You can purchase both salted and unsalted butter at the store. Some "light" butters are also available with Canola Oil or Olive Oil. Land of Lakes makes all of these.
Tofu is likely to stick to the pan if cooked without some type of oil or fat. Healthy olive oil or canola oil may be substituted for butter, or one could spray the pan lightly with a non-stick cooking spray.
Ivy's gross brains!!
For the most part, it is the flavor not the lubricating or moistening that the butter or oil does. Finishing a sauce, baked potato, some cakes and frosting. Oil may substitute, but it doesn't turn out the same product.
use butter oil instead of cooking oil when frying a ham.
Not really. They have different properties and cook differently. You can sometimes use olive oil to saute something in place of butter, but if the recipe calls for butter, use butter. Sometimes you can substitute vegetable oil or canola oil, but not olive oil.
The food that you cook might be to oily or greasy to eat. Have a nice day!
You can cook an egg without using oil by boiling it in water or by baking it in the oven.
