Default Lemon Oil? (Extract)

I am a dreaded newbie in this NG since I 've decided to take over cooking in
this household. I've done a fair amount of reading on the Net and have
learned a great lot in the last few weeks. So far I'm pleased with myself
although I can see it will take time.

One thing had been bothering me......fish. I often hear to use a few drops
of lemon oil. Looking around in our local grocery all I find is Lemon
Extract in the spice section. That's not the same is it?

Perhaps I'm just looking in the wrong section. I could of course buy a few
lemons and use them but from what I can see it's available bottles.

Hm. In my experience, lemon oil (and other flavored oils) is used for
candy making and the like. To add further potential confusion, lemon
oil for candy making is *not* the same thing as lemon essential oil
(which, as a general rule of thumb for the newbie aromatherapist,
should not be taken internally). If you have a shop nearby which
carries specialty baking/candy making supplies, check there.

Lemon oil? When I make fish I squeeze fresh lemon JUICE on it; not an
extract. I've never heard of lemon oil on fish!?!

I keep a variety of oils on hand, including lemon, that I use in cooking,
baking, and pickling. I have a local pharmacist order them. I usually
have orange, lemon, cinnamon, clove, peppermint, almond, and anise.

That reminds me: Does anyone here know what "cucumber essence" is, and how
to obtain it in an edible form? I ran across some interesting drink recipes
which call for it, and when I go looking for it, it only shows up in
cosmetic formulations.

Okay, it's a classic Dustin Hoffman film. Hoffman plays a marathon runner
with a brother in the CIA. He falls into the hands of a former Nazi and
dentist, who tortures him by drilling holes in his teeth, all the while
asking, "Is it safe?"

Naturally, Hoffman has no idea what the dentist is talking about, so the
torture continues.

Where does clove oil fit into it? The dentist applies clove oil to Hoffman's
teeth to ease the pain of the torture -- the better to start it back up
again.

hmmmm... IMHO it's better to use a squeeze of FRESH lemon juice after
the fish has cooked.

When I bake fish, I do like to slice whole lemons thin and lay the
slices over the fish.

I also like to add fresh or dried dill, and a little salt free lemon
pepper....

That sounds horrible! I'm glad I haven't seen it. I accidentally watched
"The Dentist" with Corbin Bernsen. I kept watching ... waiting for it to
get better. But it never did. Horrible, horrible movie. Horrible.

The reason I asked Wayne what he was doing with clove oil is that he has
posted that he used to have toothaches as a child, and the school nurse
would make him sit with clove oil on them.

Sheesh, we live in a cruel world!

<grins> Actually, I've about had it... :-)
Eyes are closing, and my project is to clean up greenhouses #1 and #2
tomorrow and go see what Lowe's has for bedding plants!

Might pre-start my beans in pots too. I really don't dare put stuff in
the ground until April 1, but at least I can give it a head start!

I confess, I was watching a DVD on the computer.

"Flesh Gordon". A hilarious film! Rated "R" by today's standards.
A real classic!

Clove oil is an excellent cure for toothache.

April 1? Where do you live? We can't safely plant stuff here until at
least mid-May.

I make a candied sweet pickle that calls for a few drops each of clove and
cinnamon oils. Whole cloves and cinnamon bark can make the pickling syrup
bitter after a while; the oil does not.

Yes, it is. However, I could never use it for that. An over zealous school
nurse burned my mouth rather badly with way too much clove oil when I was in
highschool. Other than a drop or two in cooking, I can't stand it.

Lemon oil and lemon extract are NOT the same thing.

Unless your local grocer is exceptional, you would probably not find lemon
oil there. Fancy grocers, "gourmet" shops (food/kitchenwares), some more
enlightened natural food shops, and baking specialists would be better bets.

The oil I have is made by Boyajian. (The 1 oz bottle is often packaged
as a set with orange and lime oils.) It is highly concentrated. As an
example, I use 1 teaspoon (scant even) to flavor 3/4 lb of chocolate for
ganache (truffle filling) and it is fairly lemony.

I would substitute it for fresh lemon zest (sometimes even here in
California I don't always have a fresh lemon to hand ... pretty rare
though ;-). I will say that it's likely to disperse better in something
where liquid is central than zest.

If a recipe calls for extract, oil might make it taste more LEMONY,
although I'd be careful about substituing exact amounts because of the
concentration. ("Halve and taste" would be a good rule, I think.)

Lemon oil on fish, huh? I've heard of it on furniture. . . .
I sprinkle lemon _juice_ on fish. I refuse to believe that lemon oil is
what you're after -- the oils are VERY intense and I just can't imagine
the value of it on fish.

Back during the Stone Age, I attended Dental Assisting school. Following
periodontal surgery, patients' gums were covered with pink clove gunk.
That's all I can think of when I smell a strong aroma of cloves. I'd have
to be pretty desperate, and in a tremendous amount of pain, to use that
stuff.

Rumpole is my huge mackeral tabby, and Mildred is my long-haired bobtail.
