Ah I'm getting mastic muddled with mastiha.
Thread revival.

it’s the same, mastic is the anglicised pronunciation. strangely, atmos labs the greek company sells it as mastic, and the australian one is labelled mastiha. i always say mastiha as that’s what the wife calls it.

I'll take you up on the ginger root... I need a good straight ginger. I usually ignore your recommendations because you have such revolting taste, but I'll give you the benefit this time. It better be good or I'll be coming looking for you.

it’s very good, trust me. very clean and pure fresh ginger flavour. tastes like fresh ginger put through a juicer.

I thought mastic was like bathroom sealer or something?

you should add the mastiha. it’s a great flavour. there’s nothing else like it. and they are only cheap.

VTA Pudding Base is a good one, I've been using it at 4%, in a rice pud blend for well over 2 years. The Strawberry Jam is really jammy, I use it at 1%, it goes a long way. The Creme Brulee is another good one, not used it much yet, as I've been lazy on the mixing and new recipes front.
