Guest guest Posted February 12, 2007 Report Share Posted February 12, 2007 Hello Diane, As Lisa suggested in her post #10774, coconut oil is great to use in a shake. Brenda in her post #10776 used it in an ice cream recipe. One of my favorite ways to eat coconut oil is as follows: steam your vegs and put them into a serving bowl, put on a Tbsp of coconut oil, a little fresh cut or dried seasoning plus Celtic sea salt to taste, toss and serve immediately. The vegs prepared like this look glossy and are delicious too! I use wax paper to put coconut oil on top of my fresh baked bread and buns, it keeps them nice and soft and adds a delicious flavour. My husband likes to spread it on bread and eat it just like that. That can be a little tricky in the summer because the oil melts at room temperature. You could mix the coconut oil with some olive, or hemp oil and store in the fridge.(adding the oil will soften it and help it to spread on your bread easier) You could also add your favourite seasoning to it> It can be used in a stir-fry because frying coconut oil does not spoil the oil! As another lady mentioned, it can be used as a replacement for oil in most recipes. I've used it in my bread recipe, it's great! Don't be afraid to experiment with it. -Gail Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 14, 2007 Report Share Posted February 14, 2007 I know many of you have mentioned using coconut oil of your skin, and I do as well. But I was wondering if you also use it on your face? Or just the rest of your body?
