Michael K Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 Besides Coconut or Avacado Oil! My wife hates coconut and avacado... She wants to use Canola, Soybean or Sunflower... I figure lard or tallow would be good, but I have trouble finding any at Trader Joes or Harris Teeter in Virginia. I could get tallow from meat shippers but I haven't done that yet so I have little confidence in that. Any ideas? HELP! Michael Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Tom Denham Posted June 20, 2012 Moderators Share Posted June 20, 2012 Ghee is another cooking oil choice. I buy mine locally, but you can get it online too. Ghee, of course, is cooked clarified butter. I made my own beef tallow last year by cooking down a few pounds of fat my butcher gave me. I liked it okay, but tallow splatters a bit when cooking with it in a skillet. I use ghee instead now. Here is my tallow story... http://www.wholelife...nt-cooking-fat/ By the way, quality matters when it comes to coconut oil. I've tried some cheap oils that I did not like. Currently I buy the Nutiva brand of coconut oil and love it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
