Re: Talk to me about coconut oil

Doesn't it change the texture in foods that are served at room temp?

I'm addicted to quick breads right now, so I'm thinking breads and muffins. And cookies. And even yeast breads. And cake. And wow I'm hungry.

It is absolutely wonderful in biscuits. It should be great in all those things...

It acts more like butter than oil. It just has a lower melting point than butter. It should cook like butter as well.

Oh yeah. A thousand times, yeah. Though, it does weird my husband out the way it goes on, because it starts out lumpy (he called it gritty) then turns magically to slick oil.

Re: Talk to me about coconut oil

OT:

I used the oil as a moisturizer over my whole body after my bath today, including on my face. WOW. It was not greasy, it soaked in beautifully and it made all my skin so soft. Normally I can't use a moisturizer on my legs after I shave because it will get in the follicle and cause pain at every little point and I'll have what looks like a massive heat rash everywhere i put the moisturizer, no matter how "all natural" it is, but the oil didn't do that.
