Looking for non-hydrogenated palm shortening! [General]
2013 Sep 14
I think the brand Earthbalance is non-hydrogenated, it's a blend of different oils and I've seen it at Loblaws.

No, not a baking experiment. For deep frying, actually. I want a non-hydrogenated oil, and I don't want to use canola/veg oils and the like.
I've never checked out earth balance because I don't use margarine. Didn't know they made shortening but I'll take a look for it. I suspect it won't be much cheaper than my current source (ebay or buying from tropicaltraditions.com when I'm in the US. It would take a lot of little bricks to fill my fryer.
Red palm oil won't work. It has a stronger flavour.
Thanks for the suggestions. Pantry Plus in orleans didn't have it, nor bulk barn.
