Re: Re: EVOO Recommendations?

[Guest guest]

I love walnut oil. Sometimes I do half walnut and half safflower (all

safflower makes me nauseas). Extra light olive oil is good also.

I've seen hazelnut oil, almond and sesame oil in the stores but

haven't tried them. Not sure if that would be too strong. I like

lots of lemon and cayenne so as long as it's not overwhelming, ummm

Ray olive oil is good imho.

I tried making mayonnaise with EVOO several times, but I didn't like the taste of it. I ended up trying "mild" olive oil- (it wasn't organic or cold pressed, so I'm not sure how you feel about that), and I really liked it. I like EVOO on salads, but in the mayo it was way to strong and made it taste bitter. Maybe you can try and find a mild tasting olive oil?Thanks PJ, Kim and Amber (and others, I'm sure I'm forgetting someone) for your ideas! I would rather avoid the 'light' or 'mild' olive oils, but I might have to try one if I can't figure something else out. I've had a lot of recommendations for Colavita olive oil, and I think theirs is first cold pressed like you said, Kim, so I might try that. I will let you know how it goes =) Peace =)Alyssa 16 yo UC April 2008, dx Sept 2008SCD June 2009 (restarted)Azathioprine 50 mg 1x per dayPrednisone 35 mg 1x per day

Why don't you try some walnut, avocado, coconut and olive oil. I can't find unrefined walnut oil anywhere =( Peace =)Alyssa 16 yo UC April 2008, dx Sept 2008SCD June 2009 (restarted)Azathioprine 50 mg 1x per dayPrednisone 35 mg 1x per day

Ok, I just checked and my walnut oil is refined.  Spectrum.  They have unrefined peanut and other types on this website.  Actually, at the time I couln't find it anywhere online but I accidentally found it at WF. Sesame is good but a little goes a loong way.

Sounds delicious to me.

I didn't know mustard is an

for quite a while with mayo that would thicken one time, and not another,

I finally read that eggless mayo won't work in humid weather, a definite

regular problem here in the northwest! It's much easier now to be

able to use the egg.

Tell me about humidity!

I'd be interested in where you read about eggless mayo failing in humid

weather. I know meringues also aren't keen on damp weather.

Can you readily find legal

horseradish? I just checked my label. It's no good. I definitely want to

try eggless mayo.

My sister found some legal horseradish in Ohio and brought me a couple of

jars. I also use the Penzey's powdered horseradish. <g> We had to

have horseradish around, you know. My husband likes it on his raw

oysters.

Or you can make your own - they have it in the supermarket. Or if you have a garden, you can plant some.Mara At 08:50 PM 4/3/2010, you wrote:Can you readily find legal horseradish?

either!

That's why an Excalibur dehydrator is handy..... it sometimes takes

longer to dry, because of the climate, but it will dry

eventually.
