I don’t mean this answer to sound cavalier, Carla, but I would say only if you have a dairy allergy. I guess it would also depend upon what you use in place of the dairy. Subbing coconut oil for butter, for example, is a much healthier choice because the medium-chain fatty acids in the oil are metabolized rather than turned to fat. Margarine for butter is not the healthiest choice, however, since margarine has been shown to raise “bad” cholesterol and lower “good” cholesterol.

how does different cooking techniques have affect on the taste?

Hi Hannah, great question and one that needs a few articles written to start to answer it. Look at various foods that you love and can be cooked in different ways and think about how they taste differently. For example, you know how a baked potato tastes, but then think about how that compares to French fried potatoes. Another example might be chicken. You can deep fry, saute, roast or poach it and each will taste differently although it is the same ingredient. For more on taste, read my post on How We Taste Food. - RG
