Oil For Food Indeed

Wednesday, May 18th, 2005

The News explores the diverse uses of canola oil in its recipe column today. For instance, there’s this recipe for Soup with Chicken Dumplings:

2 tablespoons canola oil

2 tablespoons canola oil

2 tablespoons canola oil

2 tablespoons canola oil

2 tablespoons canola oil

1. Put the first 4 ingredients into a blender and blend them to the consistency of a mousse. Using a scoop or 2 teaspoons, shape batter into little football shapes and drop them into boiling turkey or chicken stock. Cook 4 to 5 minutes and serve.

Also featured in the column: Fried Rice, Savory Vegetable Cakes or Beef Tamales — all requiring no ingredients other than canola oil in two-tablespoon increments. Someone’s in the pocket of the canola oil lobby. (Or possibly this is somehow related to the Web error that Mlive has been experiencing lately where every item on a page has the same title.)
