Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)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, raw veggies, etc.) ... it's hard to describe the mouth-watering hit of balsamic, tropical, nutty-sweet paradise dancing up from the pan. In the steam I swear I saw palm trees and ... Trinidad ... and I broke into one of my favorite songs from times past, "Rum & Coca Cola," by the Andrews Sisters.
What a gift to have unusual, exotic oils like this easily available from Amazon vendors.
For another treat with a simpler flavor but an equally rich after-taste, see my KINDLE offering, Coal & Coca-cola.
To your good taste!
