) if you have a healthfood/vitamin store near you go look for some liquid lecithin- add about a tablespoon for each oz of trim your running, this will further enhance the mixture. does your slow cooker have a digital tstat? if so set it to 160, if it is older and only has "warm-low-high" settings then use WARM, most crockpots the"low" setting will still reach temps of up to 200 when steeping in excess of 2 hours.
it also keeps longer than most, use dark glass jars to store it in and keep it in the back of a cabinet you dont go into often, the point to both of these suggestions are to keep as much light as possible from ever reaching the mixture, it is best advised not to refrigerate however if you plan on not using the oil for an extended period of time then you can, preferably again in a dark glass bottle and then wrapped in a black bag or tape.
it is always best to decarb yes
well they'll probably thank me since i suggested it first and with more info as to why, but proud of you anyway
No point once you heat it up you lose all the flavor and benefits of the cold pressing. Just wasting money to buy EVOO to cook with imho. It is a great finishing oil or salad oil
Seriously I use a lot of olive oil a year. Have nice stuff for finishing food dishes. But I use reg evoo for scissors to cleaning hash off my hands...
Shrug, I've used it as lube for other things
Just saying you lose the delicate flavors of EVOO once you heat it and saute or whatever in it. I'm guilty of using whatever oil is on hand though cause I don't feel like going to the store. Does oil work better for removing hash than just using rubbing alcohol? I just use a jar for the snips and nitrile gloves.
sandman you just became my best friend for answering that exactly as any chef would <3
I have never heard of anyone using evoo to clean their scissors or hands... you do realize isopropyl is like half the cost though right?
