Guest guest Posted August 7, 2009 Report Share Posted August 7, 2009 Hi ,Welcome to the list. Making your own DCCC is really not necessary and, from what I understand, would be pretty difficult. There are a lot of people here that don't have access to it. You can substitute dripped yogurt in any recipe that calls for DCCC. So unless you just really want to make your own, I wouldn't worry about doing that.Let us know if you have any other questions. Best wishes,Kim H.husband, , CD 1999, SCD 2002To: BTVC-SCD Sent: Friday, August 7, 2009 10:16:56 PMSubject: beginner with questions about homemade foods I've been having gut problems for several years--it seemed to start after a surgery to remove 18" of colon because of a polyp. At first I thought it was wheat intolerance, but I've also thought it was every other diagnosis I read about on this board! I've have the blood test for celiac but it was negative. Anyway, I'm ready to try scd and have read the book and made the mental commitment. I've been reading the different boards online and am getting a feel for the allowable foods. Today I picked up a few things at the store, but other things were not available (small town). Dry curd cottage cheese was one. Can't I make that at home? I saw some recipes at http://www.gourmetsleuth.com/makecottagefarmercheese.htm Does anyone have time to take a look and see if they would be legal? I ordered a yogurt maker this evening and should have it by the time I could add yogurt as I'm not sensitive to dairy so I imagine I could add that in before too long. I'll also mention my symptoms are not too bad right now. I'm glad to be here, and find all the information fascinating! in Idaho Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 8, 2009 Report Share Posted August 8, 2009 Hi , Welcome! You can make DCCC by letting your yogurt drip for several days in the fridge. When all the liquid is dripped out then your yogurt becomes quite firm. Once your yogurt is finished fermenting (24 hours) then put it in the fridge to firm up for about 8 hours. Then, line a colander with cheesecloth, place over a bowl to catch the liquid, spoon the yogurt into it and let it drip, in the fridge for several hours, or even days. I don’t think it will be as “dry” as a commercial brand, but it is excellent. Buttermilk is illegal. I don’t know about rennet. Making your yogurt with half & half or whole milk with some cream (make sure there are no illegal ingredients in either the cream or half & half, like carrageenan) will produce a richer, creamier yogurt.

Guest guest Posted August 8, 2009 Report Share Posted August 8, 2009 Hi Carol, Have you made DCCC with goat yogurt? I am curious because I want to make the souffle buns for my ASD kids, but it calls for regular DCCC. If I make my own goat-based DCCC I think I would be able to make the souffle buns for their hamburgers. Cheryl, SCD 3-08 Carol Pompilo wrote: Hi , Welcome!

Guest guest Posted August 8, 2009 Report Share Posted August 8, 2009 Hi Cheryl, No, I have no experience with goat’s milk yogurt – sorry! I’m guessing that if dripped it might work.

Let me correct my correction. Buttermilk without illegal additives is legal to use as a starter for DCCC, the same way commercial yogurt without illegals may be used as a starter for SCD yogurt. — Marilyn New Orleans, Louisiana, USA Undiagnosed IBS since 1976, SCD since 2001 Darn Good SCD Cook No Human Children Shadow & Sunny Longhair Dachshund Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted August 9, 2009 Report Share Posted August 9, 2009 The idea of making things from scratch is hard at first but you get better with practice. Speaking of canned- I have a can of Libby's canned pumpkin that says 100% Pure Pumpkin on it, and only lists pumpkin as an ingredient. I bought it pre-SCD, and I have no intentions of eating it, but I do wonder how they can say 100% pure pumpkin on it if it is not true. I would not trust it enough to eat it without a letter from Libby's, but it does make me curious.

Guest guest Posted August 9, 2009 Report Share Posted August 9, 2009 They told me: " The processing of the Libby's 100% Pure Pumpkin is minimal. Nothing is added to the pumpkin – no salt, no sugar, no artificial flavorings, colorings or preservatives. Some water is removed to concentrate the pumpkin for an even consistency and fresh, rich taste. Labeling regulations require that if any of the eight recognized known allergens are in the product they must be listed in the ingredient statement. We always list the allergen by the common name. Additionally, our factories, that use any of the recognized allergens as an ingredient, take all precautions to avoid cross contact of products that do not contain them. We always add a cautionary statement at the end of our packaging ingredient listing if a product is made on the same line or factory of those products containing a recognized allergen. It is recommended that you always check the label before purchasing a product. " Then I asked something about the cooking process (something like that...it's been a while since I contacted them) and they said: " In regards to your inquiry the pumpkin is compressed to remove some of the water and no chemicals are used during that process. Libby's 100% Pure Pumpkin is also thoroughly cooked during the canning process so it is perfectly safe and acceptable to enjoy it straight from the can. " HOWEVER this was via email. I've used it and didn't have any reaction but I'd been strictly SCD for several years at that point and it's not exactly a regular part of my diet. Anyway I just thought I would share. Oh but....it's really easy to just substitute the pumpkin with butternut squash since that's really easy to cook with and can be found year round in many places, unlike pumpkin pie pumpkins.

Guest guest Posted August 9, 2009 Report Share Posted August 9, 2009 Seems to me the if the pumpkin or anything else has " trade secrets " in it, it's obvious there's something else in there, and most likely something we can't have. We don't grow pumpkins any more but actually, we used to and I used to cook and freeze the pulp just fine. Takes a bit more time than some things but it was really good. As an aside, my sister was over visiting this afternoon and it was the first time I got to tell her in some detail about SCD. I showed her the cookbook and she fell madly in love with it and I let her take it home since I won't be there for awhile anyhow. not legal - they said they couldn't give up trade secrets but that they were gluten-free - sorry eileen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
