Now Foods Organic Macadamia Oil Pure, 16-Ounce Reviews
| 28 of 31 people found the following review helpful  Exotic Flavor & High Heat Capacity = Cool Caramelization, By Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Now Foods Organic Macadamia Oil Pure, 16-Ounce (Health and Beauty) My title basically says it all for this Macadamia Nut Oil, which I bought for browning meats, hoping to infuse an unusually rich tang to the same ole fry. I was surprised that the flavor was slightly sweet, whereas I had expected (and received) a rich nutty enhancement to the meat's browning. Once I was aware of the blend of sweet & nutty (like moi?) I was able to adapt my other seasonings to balance or subdue the sweet and enhance the salty nut side.I had been concerned that a high quality nut oil might not have qualities which would withstand the high heats I prefer for searing meat, so I was thrilled to read the label and discover the capacity there to be beyond my expectations, to the good. In my testing, I found that the Macadamia Nut Oil could handle my "pouring on the coal" more easily than my favorite olive oils. And the luxurious aroma which rises up from a hot pan as I pour in this oil, then quickly slide in a piece of steak (or fish, chicken, pork,...

(Maryland USA) - See all my reviews Amazon Verified Purchase I like olive oil however it can sometimes taste really strong in certain recipes. However, Macadamia Oil has a much better, subtle, and buttery taste. This works great for us because we don't have to use much to get a great buttery taste.Plus, the health benefits are great. Our entire family loves this stuff. I've gotten my sisters, Mom, and in-laws to use this. It really does provide a great alternative to olive oil. Also, the Now Foods brand oil is much better than the expensive Dr. P's MacNut brand which I was impartial to until I tasted this one. I trust Now Foods and love that this was much less expensive. 12 of 12 people found the following review helpful  Good Stuff, By Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Now Foods Organic Macadamia Oil Pure, 16-Ounce (Health and Beauty) I bought this oil after reading a description of its benefits in Tim Ferris' 4-Hour Body. I couldn't find it in my local stores, so online seems to be the only way to get it. Tim said it tastes buttery, but I don't get that. It tastes like Macadamia nuts (duh). That said, it does taste better than olive oil for frying eggs and other high-temp frying. I'd like to find it in a larger size, at a cost-per-ounce saving.I intend to buy it again when it's getting close to empty; which, at the rate I'm using it, will be pretty soon. |
