I use it in pancake batter/biscuit mix.. works great. I use it in place

of plain yogurt and buttermilk, and regular milk where I'd use sour

milk. I haven't tried heating it as a liquid, though. You might want to

just try some to see if it separates/curdles under the same conditions

as the buttermilk would be subjected.

I use kefir wherever I would use buttermilk, in

pancakes, biscuits, creamy salad dressings, etc. I

don't know about hot soups, but I bet kefir would make

a nice base for a cold fruit soup.

cornbread with kefir today and was just wondering....Thanks!!  Carla

Every last probiotic bacteria gave up its life so you can have cornbread.

Oh, well. Just make sure you don't cook all the kefir you drink.

Hi ,

I'm not sure which site you are referring to, but as Marilyn says, you can soak

flour or grains in kefir before cooking to make the grain more digestible.

Ideally the flour/grain should be soaked in a warm place for 12 - 24 hours. I

have a yummy muffin recipe on my web site that uses this method:

Well, if one cooks with kefir won't it kill all of the goodies we're trying to

get from it? If so, what would be the point of cooking with it?

This recipe looks awesome, Suzanne. The only problem is that the link to " how to

make crispy nuts " doesn't seem to work. How do I find out how to make crispy

nuts? :)

Thank you.

Did NT use butter? I don't recall that and I'm too lazy to look it up

right now. I've learned not to go " low fat " from NT and lists like this

one, but I still just don't care for a lot of high fat foods and prefer

my nuts with just the fats mother nature gave them. My toaster oven

goes down to 150 -- so I can do small batches that way. Otherwise I use

a dehydrator. In the toaster oven, I just use a small cookie sheet and

stir the nuts once or twice. They don't stick.

Sorry this has gone OT, it just sort of evolved that way.
