The other day, based on what I read at Fias Co Farm, I tried turning my chevre into “sour cream”. It isn’t true sour cream because it isn’t from the cream. However, the taste is so good and the texture so right that we all swear (not really) it is the best sour cream we’ve ever had.
Kefir Poppy Seed Dressing
June 11, 2009 By 4 Comments
It is hard to know whether I should share this dressing or not… because not everybody was crazy about it. As usual, I did like it very much, while everyone else thought it was so-so. See what you can do with it! It came from this recipe, only I used kefir instead of yogurt and green leaf stevia instead of honey. Perhaps I should do it again with honey. I can tell I’m really convincing you to give this a try with all my ho hum comments. 
But I think it has potential – and I really liked it. (Thank you to SueEllen for suggesting it to me!)

The plants are under a greenhouse cover and still flourising as if it [...]

Chocolate Syrup

Goopy, thick, drizzly, sweet, dark… It includes the healthiest forms of all ingredients, but still is an indulgence! Use it as a glaze, or make chocolate milk by mixing it with nut milk. Chocolate Syrup makes 2 cups 1 [...]
