My whipping cream dilemma
| March 19, 2010 | Filled under Real Food |
When I cook I often use whipping cream. The real whipping cream. Not the whipped cream – the fake kind in a tub with added hydrogenated oils, preservatives, and corn syrup. You would never find that kind of concoction in my kitchen.
I would use whipping cream to make Chocolate mousse or Cake frosting, home made Alfredo Pasta Sauce or Enchiladas. Here is this awesome recipe for Enchiladas without use of Cream of Chemical soup .
If you are worried about high fat content in whipping cream, take a look at this article Taking the Fear Out of Eating Fat .
Here is my dilemma:
I cannot find whipping cream that would be BOTH: Without added carrageenan AND Produced without the use of antibiotics.
Here is what is wrong with carrageenan - it is extracted from red seaweed by using powerful alkali solvents. These solvents would remove the tissues and skin from your hands as readily as would any acid. Carrageenan is a gel. It coats the insides of a stomach, like gooey honey or massage oil. Digestive problems often ensue. (Source: notmilk.com)
What kind of whipping cream do you buy?
I can't find whipping cream without both carrageenan AND antibiotics. Which kind do u buy? http://bit.ly/bgqQ9F
In the past week, I’ve learned to use a special type of whipped product. In this case, it’s best served from a can. I’ve had to open quite a few cans of “whoop-ass” – Filipino-style.
[...] carrageenan ( I wrote about carrageenan here) [...]
i was beginning to feel i may well be the sole individual whom thought about this, at the least currently i understand i’m not outlandish
i’ll be sure to examine a couple of various other posts immediately after i get a little caffeine in me, it’s very difficult to read with out my coffee, I was really late last evening playing facebook poker and after drinking a few brewskies i ended up burning off all my facebook poker chips take care 
LOVE homemade whipping cream! I can get whipping cream at a local whole foods store that is from a local farm. It is just straight cream from the top of the milk. I also sometimes buy the Natural By Nature brand of whipping cream. http://www.natural-by-nature.com/cream.htm
thank you for this tip. I will try to look in Trade Joe’s for it. I could not find anything in Whole Foods. Maybe I will find some other whole food stores in the area. Thanks!
howdy really good little journal ya have there
I am using the same exact web theme on my own blog though for whatever reasons it would seem to stream at a higher speed on your blog despite the fact that your own features alot more content. Have you been using any plug ins or widgets which speed it up? Do you think you could possibly share the plug ins so maybe I could use them in my web site so twilight new moon fans could watch twilight new moon online trailers and clips more quickly I’d always be pleased – thank you in advance
