DCCC

[Guest guest]

Hi Misty,

I don't think I've ever seen a recipe for DCCC floating around. People use dripped yogurt in place of DCCC. Is that what you're thinking of?

I don't see how the recipe you posted could be legal. It seems to me, there would be tons of lactose left in it. Sorry I'm not more helpful. Dripped yogurt works very well in place of DCCC.

Best wishes,

Re: DCCC

I know someone posted how to make homemade DCCC but I can't find it. Can someone post the link? I do eventually want to start trying to make my own. I tried googling it and this is the only recipe I could find. Is it correct?...

Dry curd cheese

1 gallon milk, whole or skim

1/2 cup instant nonfat dry milk

1 cup buttermilk

1 tablespoon salt

Pour the milk into a 6-quart, heavy pot and add the dry milk.

Bring the milk to around 86 degrees then add the buttermilk and stir well.

Keep the milk at 86 degrees for 12 hours. When done, cut the formed curd into 1/2-inch pieces. Raise the temperature in the curd pan to 100 to 104 degrees.

Cook for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally to keep the curd from sticking.

Line a colander with clean cheesecloth or muslin cloth.

Scoop out the curd into the colander. Allow to drain for several minutes, then rinse curd in lukewarm water. Allow to drain for several more minutes.

Place drained curd into a bowl. Sprinkle with salt and mix evenly.

Put into a covered container and chill.

Makes about 11/2 pounds.

Thanks for all your help,

Hi, Debbie,

The Lifeway Farmer cheese is not legal.

I looked into making DCCC but found it was not possible, but I don't

remember why.

People who sub dripped yogurt for DCCC say it works very well.

Thanks, Misty. I keep getting confused about DCCC,

and I guess I have yet to see the proper kind.

Is the main requirement that the carb count is 0?

I know that no milk is added after fermentation.

I cannot use the phone hardly at all, so I have not

called Natural Pastures. I really like their product

but it's probably not legal.

Thanks for the scdiet link, but I've already checked

it. It would be helpful if I could find someone near

me who is on the diet. I'm now in touch with someone

across the ocean in Vancouver, but I still have not

found anyone here on the Island.

I just realized that i had never written to Suzann

of the healthinforcenter so I wrote her now and

I'll join the SCD Info list. I also just joined the

Vancouver group, but it is small and doesn't

seem to be functioning much.

The DCCC resources don't have Vancouver Island listed. But, this link might help you in your search:

http://www.scdiet.org/5community/websites.html

The carb count has to be 0 so I'd def say Organic Meadow is out.

This is what I found on the Natural Patures website. Since it's a fresh cheese like mozzarella, it is mostly likely illegal too. The website has a Toll Free number if you want to call and confirm. http://www.naturalpastures.com/awards

Hi Jodi,I don't know why it would be too much. If you're tolerating it and like it, I don't see a problem.Take care,Kim H.husband, , CD 1999SCD 2002 DCCC

I eat about 4-6 ounces of DCCC daily.

I also have about 3/4 cup of Yogurt.

I was wondering if this is too much DCCC?

I buy DCCC from Whole Foods. It is the Friendship Farms brand and it

is the one that is already salted. The way they sell it here in Whole

Foods is that they get these balls of DCCC in a huge vat that are each

wrapped in friendship paper and someone cuts 1 of these it in half

and puts into plastic containers and charge by weight. Sometimes I am

able to find the actual individual packets Friendship makes but the

other supermarkets in my neighborhood doesn't always have it.

Does anyone see a problem with me buying this??

I am supposed to check the legality of all my stuff.

Thanks everyone for baring with me.

I truly appreciate it, seriously.

Dear Jodi,

I am buying DCCC in Wegmans because they have non-salt version of Friendship DCCC. It is so good!! I use it for baking, eating in the morning and etc., I live in the Washington DC area and we have Whole Foods stores here too. Once I asked a manager of WF store to order DCCC without salt and I was told that this cheese will not be ordered because it is not on the list. It does not make sense to me. They sell salty version of cheese and refuse to order more healthy version of the product. If you have close by Wegmans I would recommend to buy from them.

Thank you so much for sharing your info. on DCCC (honestly, it took me a minute to figure out what DCCC stood for). I was just assuming I wouldn't be able to find it anywhere, but we do have a Wegman's about 20 min. from me. I now will be going there tonight.......thank you so much for the info!
