I bought a quart of coconut oil to try and duplicate the recipe for a sauce from a local dive. This wasn't the missing mystery ingredient.
I know it coconut oil makes for great popcorn, and I plan to make some shallot oil for some SE asian recipes.
What else is coconut oil especially good for?
-sw
I mix it with olive oil for stovetop frying and browning, and my wife and I like to add a spoonful of it to our hot oatmeal for breakfast. It's also good mixed with or in place of butter on grilled/toasted sandwiches.
My wife uses it as a skin cream, and I've found that it clears up athlete's foot as well as or better than the expensive OTC remedies like Tinactin (none of which I'd recommend for frying or grilling).

Yeah - I need to get some of the unrefined stuff for the flavor

My next door neighbor sells all sorts of homeopathic medications and coconut oil is one of them. Her's is pretty expensive though.
She says the same thing: There are much better natural alternatives to the engineered stuff from the drug companies. It does make you wonder.
