Peppermint oil
I have a recipe for mint chocolate chip ice cream that calls for
peppermint oil. Since I hadn't been able to find it, I substituted
McCormick peppermint extract (doubling the quantity used, as per some
substitution guides I came across).
I found that the extract had a harshness to it--I don't know if it was
the brand, or in using an extract (dissolved in alcohol) rather than the
oil.
I'd like to find a good food-quality peppermint oil (as opposed to
aromatherapy oil, which I have found). Any recommendations for brands,
or places to look (NY metro area)? I need it by about mid-week, so mail
order is probably out (I don't know that I want to overnight it).
