Guest guest Posted September 24, 2004 Report Share Posted September 24, 2004 I am talking about what it looks like before I heat it to cook with it. The India oil is clear as water in liquid form before heating. I don't know if the TT oil is clear as water before heating as I have not had it long enough and the temp around here is below 76 degrees so my oil is solid all the time. I eat my oil both ways. Raw and prepared with food when I cook. I never reuse my oil, if that is what you are asking when you ask " how many reheatings do you do " . I will put some of the TT oil in a glass and set the glass in some warm water so it can become liquid and see if it is clear or not. Later....

It would be either of the two. However, traditional vcno should also be clear as water when in liquid form. But i gather that in the US your oil turns solid, and you probably heat it before taking it. How many reheatings do you do? That could change the color of your oil. > > > Comparision > > > I just bought TT organic VCO for the first time in about 2 years.

Guest guest Posted September 24, 2004 Report Share Posted September 24, 2004 Yep! The TT oil was clear as water when in liquid form. Had an excellent taste too. Smelled and tasted very coconuty. No after taste,IMO. Del " Del Eaton " wrote: > I am talking about what it looks like before I heat it to cook with > it. The India oil is clear as water in liquid form before heating.

Guest guest Posted September 24, 2004 Report Share Posted September 24, 2004 The India oil from WFN that I have been using the longest, stays pure white. I have used it long enough to have in in all kinds of temperatures.

Guest guest Posted September 24, 2004 Report Share Posted September 24, 2004 Production process is probably the difference. Indian oil is probably centrifuged. As to TT's they sell traditional, with low heat, and expeller pressed. It would be either of the two. However, traditional vcno should also be clear as water when in liquid form. But i gather that in the US your oil turns solid, and you probably heat it before taking it. How many reheatings do you do? That could change the color of your oil. Comparision I just bought TT organic VCO for the first time in about 2 years. I have been using the WFN India oil but bought this oil because my HFS had it and I was out of the India oil. Anyway this oil looks grey to me compared to the India oil. The India oil is pure solid white. This oil is not pure soild white. It also has a very strong unpleasant coconut smell. What is the different between these 2 oils? Del Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
