Getting used to WAP eating (was Re: Kefir and Kombucha tea)

[Guest guest]

Hi ,

I use mostly butter for baking and do use olive oil for stir frys and sauteed veggies. I also use organic coconut oil which is great for either baking or cooking and I just found Spectrum Naturals Organic all vegetable shortening. It's made from organic palm oil and supposed to work like crisco in baking. I had a pie crust recipe that called for half butter and half crisco, and now I can try it! I've had a grain mill for years and just love it. Do read some reviews first as they vary. :-)

Olive oil is supposedly not meant to be heated at high temps.. mainly for salads.. so what could I possibly use? Baked goods, pancakes.. cooking meat.. I've used oil.. I recently purchased ghee.. how would I substitute it in place of canola oil..? I would love to use some type of oil I can stretch to make it go a long way. Any ideas?

BTW I'd love to get a grain mill !!! It is pricey.. but then again. seems so worth it ! I'm hoping that I will be able to buy one within the following year !

I will definitely save, and check out the sites you referred to .. including your blog recipes !!

Hi ! Sheri I will check out Spectrum 's vegetable shortening ! I think I saw

their mayo.. but was disappointed .. because on the front.. (one of their mayos)

says it's made with olive oil.. but in the back.. the ingredients states that

it's a blend of olive oil and canola oil.. I'm trying not to use canola oil

anymore.. I'm guessing that the only way to avoid it.. is to make mayonnaise

myself..

I've used this non-hydrogenated shortening before .. to make biscuits.. it's

sooooooo good.. I haven't purchased it in a while...

http://blisstree.com/eat/jungle-products-organic-shortening/?utm_source=blisstre\

e & utm_medium=web & utm_campaign=b5hubs_migration

but it's made with a mixture of cold pressed sunflower oil and partially refined

palm fruit oil. (processing is hexane and chemical free).. have you tried it

yet? I purchased it at Whole Foods.. Is the spectrum shortening made with

unrefined oil?

Gluten. . . a lot of people are allergic to it or have a sensitivity to it. My family just recently switched to eating gluten-free. It's not that hard, really, and making gluten-free bread isn't all too hard either.Suriyah ________Good Goats ~ Mini Nubian Dairy & Meat Goats in NE Oklahoma,http://www.goodgoats.netBlog - http://goodgoats.blogspot.com Thank you so much Suzanna !!! In the beginning... I've kneaded the dough by hand.. until I finally got my red Kitchenaid Artisan stand mixer (old classic model- I think).. I don't know anything about gluten honestly.. except that they sell some gluten free products in stores lol I set the timer on my stove for 5 minutes (kneading time) and make sure my mixer is at the slowest setting. It's true !! I thought all homemade bread was unstable !! Prone to breaking apart lol I guess I'm wrong !! I'm happy that I'm wrong !! That means there's still hope for my poor loaves !! lol I've never heard of a windowpane test.. I just kept trying to make bread as per the directions in my baking books.. until they finally came out edible lol I just have to be delicate with them ! They feel sturdy when they come out of the stove.. everything looks set.. I turn it over.. tap the bottom.. and it feels hollow.. I set it on a rack to cool down (I learned that keeping it in the pan I baked it in leaves it with a soggy bottom).. I'm just so happy I finally made some decent loaves.. that I guess I settled for it being unstable. I'm clueless ! ~ > > > > You mentioned making bread.. I've made whole wheat bread.. I've started adding sour raw milk and Sugar in the Raw (instead of brown sugar).. my husband likes my bread.. but he doesn't have the energy or patience to eat it.. lol the reason is that homemade bread isn't as elastic as the store bread.. it can break in half when you're not careful how you hold it.. or use it.. this is even after it's over a day old !! Did you find out how to make homemade bread more durable? > > > > ~ > > >

Can you tell me what the symptoms are that you've seen of gluten sensitivity? I

don't know much about that type of allergy.

Spectrum shortening is made with expeller pressed palm oil. expeller pressed

means refined, as far as I know.

I haven't tried it yet, just got it a few days ago, but it's 100% organic palm oil. I'm going to use it the next time I make a pie crust. :-)

I don't use any canola oil anymore and only very rarely sesame oil. Someone else mentioned lard and tallow. Those are great option too.

I'd love to hear how your pie crust turns out with it !! Hopefully the flavor

of the palm oil isn't too overpowering !
