Guest guest Posted December 26, 2006 Report Share Posted December 26, 2006 Guru I feel that one of the things that may cause you not to like this is the flax seed. Flax can give a taste many people do not like. Try your recipe using agar in stead of the flax. Flax is being used I beleave as the thickener... agar should do the same. I am not sure how much to uses. Go lightly at first. If you uses too much the recipe will be called eggless Nog Geliten. Try droping out the tumeric. I personally love it, but many people have alergetic reactions from it. You might like to try a little mace or allspice or both. And .... Don't forget the RUM .... use at least three different rums ... Mayers maybe, a light rum and a bit of Mt Gay dark rum (great rum from Barbados ... fell for it on my honeymoon decades ago .... before the 'gay' had a significance to me) --------------- This reminds me .... have to beging a different thread for a comment .... see if it flies, or goes over like a lead baloon ....

Guest guest Posted December 26, 2006 Report Share Posted December 26, 2006 Allysia, For this recipe, I just used the gel from the flax. I don't think it had much taste. I have tried it quite a few times with ground flax and it definitely had a taste not like egg nog. That is why I tried it with the gel. I think the part I did not like was a chalky taste. My wife had a recipe making rice milk from scratch. We always use Basmati rice but I never tasted any chalky taste. I asked her if the rice was well cooked and she said it was well cooked. We use lots of turmeric so I don't think that affected the taste much. I am very familiar with the taste. I don't drink alcohol so I'll leave out the rum.
