Hi Gerry
As I was catching up on past posts I saw one from you regarding dairy free chicken Pate and I also saw your recipe for dairy free Salmon Pate. Anyway..... what is Dairy Free Pure from Waitrose you refer to? Is it dairy free cream like Alpro?
Thanks / BB xx

Hi BB, I'm looking at the carton. It's a spread. It's vegan and dairy free. There are 3 types. The only one I've used in the Pure dairy free organic, which is largely made of sunflower oil. I should have used the word spread on the recipes; I didn't, because it doesn't say that on the packet.

Hmmmmm!!!!!!!! I suppose a soft American margy sort of spread I have from the USA should be ok to use then? what do you think?

What does the US marge taste of? This pure is kind of neutral and not salty.

Alpro is a brand name for soya based products sold in most supermarkets. They make a single cream and I thought this is what you meant .....

My spread is bland(ish) and I use it instead of butter/marg etc

BB, one of the Pure spreads is made with soya. The only pulse I don't like is soy beans, so I didn't try that one. Thanks for info on Alpro.

I found it next to the butter in Morrison's, Bea. Haven't made anything wih it yet, it seems quite nice if bland.
Nice to see you back :-)))
