Can you give me some brands or types to watch out for and to avoid? If it was tinned tomatoes or beans, I know what to get. but im out of my depth!
Erm, its personal choice, really. I buy supermarket own brand, cold pressed - cold pressed means the nuts/seeds are squished mechanically, thats all. Extra Virgin is the first squishing
If oil doesn't say "cold pressed", its probably been extracted by chemicals which are never mentioned on the ingredients list, because they're a "treatment", not an ingredient. Sainsbo Olivado Avocado oil, Extra Virgin Cold Pressed, currently £4.50 for 250ml. I've no idea about other brands!
Also people keep metioning Asian suppermarkets we have a Chinese suppermarket but it tends to sell spices and curry paste more than anything else. You wouldnt know of anywhere online to get dried beans and pulses, at a good price. I'm also looking for pop corn!
Pretty sure I've answered that in another one of your threads - check out Healthy Supplies and Somayas Kitchen. You might do well to keep your queries in one thread if you're losing track
Remember that all this stuff is personal choice! I don't know anyone else who uses avocado oil the way I do, for instance. Please make your own decisions on this stuff - it's really easy to waste a *lot* of money if you don't. Since you say you're feeling out of your depth, best slow down and stick to the basics, no avocado oil yet!
). Same message though, in all of it - find out what works for you, and do it that way.
