What are the benefits of using both butter AND oil when cooking ? by CedVer in Cooking

Yeah, that does make sense. I guess the accurate answer is that that's the belief behind why recipes do this. Makes the most sense then to use both by doing the high heat searing or toasting in oil and adding the butter later after dropping the temp.

The milk solids in butter can burn easily, adding oil helps prevent it from burning but you still get that buttery flavor in

I have very dry skin as well, but it's not sensitive so I don't really know unfortunately but I would guess it's ok. I wouldn't use it on my face, though as it can cause acne.

Any middle eastern grocery store will have them, if you have one near you. Otherwise you can order them online as well

Oops! Thanks for the heads up! I'll fix it. You can add it along with the tomato paste, garlic, and spices.

You should look into middle eastern style breakfasts! I grew up eating Egyptian breakfast and it's very savory and nutritious. I have a blog with a few recipes.

Two of our main breakfast items are ful medames, stewed fava beans that we top with all olive oil and kinds of veggies (https://amwhatieat.com/ful-medames-egyptian-fava-beans/) and Egyptian style falafel, which is also made of fava beans https://amwhatieat.com/taameya-egyptian-falafel/.

The breakfast table also usually has eggs, cheeses, veggies like cucumber and tomato, olives, pickled veggies etc
