Hi,
I was about to make this recipe :
Shrimp in garlic bath:
1 cup olive oil
6 cloves garlic, slivered
1 pound shrimp, peeled and deveined
1/2 pound mushrooms
1 cup salsa (hot)
salt and pepper to taste
Over very low heat, caramelize the garlic til nice and soft, nutty and sweet. Add shrimp, mushrooms and salsa. Salt and freshly ground black pepper. Simmer til shrimp is done.
Serve with lime.
But I realized that the olive oil is not said when it is supposed to be added. In which step of the recipe am I to use the olive oil?
Thanks

"pudding" with berriesguindilla said:
1 Tablespoon plain gelatin powder with 1/4 cup cold water
1 C boiling water
1 C Splenda
1/4 cup lemon juice
3 egg whites
PREPARATION:
1. Mix the gelatin with the cold water.
2. Add boiling water and stir to dissolve.
3. Add sweetener and lemon juice. Put in refrigerator to cool, stirring every 10 minutes or so, until it begins to thicken (this could take up to an hour).
4. With mixer on high, beat gelatin mixture until fully frothy, 1-2 minutes. A whisk attachment helps.
5. Add egg whites and beat until stiff (soft peaks are good enough if they hold their shape fairly well). This might be another 2-5 minutes, so keep checking. Leave in bowl or transfer to another bowl or mold. Refrigerate - you can serve it any time, but it will set up well in about 15 minutes.
serve with fresh berries sweetened with alittle Splenda

1 & 1/2 lbs cream cheese (room temp or left out overnight)
4 eggs (room temperature)
1/2 Tablespoon vanilla
1/2 Tablespoon lemon juice
zest of one lemon
1 & 1/3 cups Splenda
1/4 cup sour cream
Crust:
1 cup almond meal
2 Tablespoon melted butter
2 Tablespoon Splenda
Preheat oven to 375 F.
1.Combine ingredients for crust, and press into the bottom of a springform pan. Bake for 8-10 minutes, until fragrant and beginning to brown.
Raise oven heat to 400 F., or lower to 350 F if you're using a water bath (see below).
2. Put cream cheese in mixing bowl, and beat until fluffy. Add other ingredients, scraping the bowl and beaters each time (this is very important), fully incorporating each ingredient. When all ingredients are combine, scrap one more time, beat one more minute, and pour mixture into pan over crust.
Instructions for water bath: Wrap the bottom and sides of the springform pan in foil, put it in a baking pan and pour boiling water around the sides. Bake at 350 for 60-90 minutes, checking often. When the cake is firm to touch but slightly soft in the center, or the center reaches 155 degress F., remove from oven.
Let cool overnight or at least two hours
