To get you started while I get my regular posts going again try this "recipe." Actually, it's an ingredient substitute to use in your own salad and dressing recipes. The only purpose that oil serves in dressings (besides making your lips feel greasy) is to allow the dressing to stick to your veggies; this thick water will do the same. One tablespoon of this "thick water" has 5 calories, while one tablespoon of oil has 120 calories. See any reason not to make the switch? It's not even complicated:
In a small saucepan combine 1 cup of water with 2 Tablespoons of cornstarch (or 1/2 c water with 1T of cornstarch, depending on how much you need today). Stir over medium heat until thick. Let cool. Ta-da!
Thick water -- one step toward a thinner waist! Hee!
