Guest guest Posted May 26, 2004 Report Share Posted May 26, 2004 I don't know if I fully understand your question.. unless you read Ann's email answer to you wrong. Yes, you can 'fry' in olive oil in a pan. Just don't overdo it, or you'll have a soggy mess. Ann was pointing out that it *is* allowed to use olive oil because the oil that is absorbed by the meat is *good* oil! So, enjoy!

Guest guest Posted May 26, 2004 Report Share Posted May 26, 2004 -- ROTFLOL....oh good I can sleep at nite knowing I have not broken any of the cardinal rules of fryin vs. sauteeing!! I just coated the fry pan with swipe of olive oil(enough to keep fish from sticking) and then I drizzed maybe a tsp of it over the fish for my daily dose of " good fat " ..I get a kick out of the cookbook cuz it refers to how the Greeks used to have their bread and oil on the table and they just dipped their bread in it and I'm thinking: " oh yuck " that would be reason enough for me to give up bread forever!!

Guest guest Posted May 26, 2004 Report Share Posted May 26, 2004 Don't knock it til you've tried it. Even before SBD I did that. I like just plain extra virgin olive oil and a nice hearty bread.

Guest guest Posted May 26, 2004 Report Share Posted May 26, 2004 Macaroni Grill here in Ca serves a French bread with what they call “Italian butter” They pour olive oil into a plate and grind some cracked pepper into it.

Guest guest Posted May 26, 2004 Report Share Posted May 26, 2004 That is good to know! Donna (wife to Ron and mom of the blessings 11) Re: Sort of dumb question but important none the less! True french bread is sourdough-based, which can be an acceptable starch - the acid slows down the digestion.
