Milk and butter will emulsify together, but coconut milk and ghee less satisfactorily. Last time I made it, they separated...the result was rather runny. Using lecithin helped them to blend together more effectively.<BR/><BR/>I used granules, but I'm meditating on http://www.crystallinesolutions.com/sunflowerlecithin/htmlLoztnaustenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17629800078798930455noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2944883925817632331.post-48298140247004402682008-05-27T15:48:00.000-04:002008-05-27T15:48:00.000-04:00so for the icing...is the lecithin integral? i rea...so for the icing...is the lecithin integral? i realize what lecithin is used for, i just don't have any & was so looking to ice some mock brownies this week (w/o a store trip). i see on the original recipe it's lecithin-less but i'm thinking that makes it less....icing-friendly? more clumpy?<BR/><BR/>& last, are you using granules or liquid (i assume granules, but no good basis for my assumption other than i've only seen the liquid version in soy)?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2944883925817632331.post-58345197828836740922008-05-11T20:34:00.000-04:002008-05-11T20:34:00.000-04:00That's a very connected way of looking at it, Jess...That's a very connected way of looking at it, Jessica!<BR/><BR/>Thanks for the kind words. :)Loztnaustenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17629800078798930455noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2944883925817632331.post-55901817775341271172008-03-15T18:29:00.000-04:002008-03-15T18:29:00.000-04:00My daughter just had her birthday as well, and a f...My daughter just had her birthday as well, and a friend mentioned to me that my daughter's birthday is mine as well. It is my own anniversary and time of remembrance of the feat I accomplished that day. It feels satisfying to reflect on that day and the years that have gone by, and breathe a breath of gratitude for it all. <BR/><BR/>Your writing is so eloquent! Looking forward to more.<BR/><BR/>Jessica<BR/>www.practicalnourishment.comAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
