On a recent holiday in Morocco I bought some Argan oil from a Berber spice shop, as I had read that it had an interesting origin. Argan oil is made from Aragan nuts found on the Argan tree. The Argan tree is very thorny, so Berbers sent up their goats to eat the nuts. The nuts then pass though the goat and the Berbers collect them and make an araomatic oil from the goat processed nuts. It is amber coloured and smells/tastes nutty, similar to hazelnut oil. Now that I have it I would like to use it. As I have found it being sold in supermarkets in the UK (no mention of goats though) people here in the UK must be using it. I have also seen some US recipes but they all tend to be a bit boring as they tend to use it as a drizzling oil only (is Argan oil the new Truffle oil?). I though of a Robert May medieval grand salad thing might be good with Argan oil. Any further suggestions
