magidPassover groceries that could theoretically be available, but aren't, to the best of my knowledge:
tapioca pearls
almond butter
Greek-style yogurt
capers
coconut milk
almond milk
What else?

Date: 2011-04-21 08:27 pm (UTC)We recently made some almond butter, which Ellen added some chocolate to. My contribution to the "we" was sitting there pulsing the food processor for like 20 minutes, so ping Ellen if you want details.

Date: 2011-04-22 02:27 am (UTC)I've used it during the rest of the year, so kashering it would be a bit of nuisance.

Date: 2011-04-21 05:50 pm (UTC)The Butcherie had almond milk, albeit with an odd ingredient or two included.
Would you consider investing in a blender for Pesach in order to make nut milks? A small food processor in order to make nut butters?
And regular yogurt can at least be thickened by straining out some of the liquid with the use of muslin or cheesecloth.
Moed tov!

Date: 2011-04-21 09:20 pm (UTC)I don't think I'd get a blender for Pesach before getting one for the rest of the year (all I have now is an immersion one). Possibly a mini food processor, if I can find one that's easy to clean.
It's true about yogurt; I'm just lazy :-)
Moed tov!

Date: 2011-04-21 07:53 pm (UTC)Regarding the coconut milk, I believe that there are many products with an ou that are also ou-p but unmarked. However if you call the ou they will tell you whether they are ou-p. I heard a radio show last week with rabbi eli gersten answering some questions about those products. If you are desperate for the product I would call him and leave a message.

Date: 2011-04-21 09:18 pm (UTC)I'm not in desperate need of any of these items; it's more about things I've considered making but realized I couldn't due to not having the right ingredient. I have lots of food around though, so there's no worries about not being able to make *something* :-)
Moed tov.
