Now that we are selling whey and buttemilk in the Cricket Creek Farm Store, you may be looking for ideas of what to do with these tasty dairy products. I will share recipes over the coming weeks, but here are a few starter ideas for some of the many uses for whey…
- Use it as a substitute for other liquids in any type of savory baking (bread, pancakes, biscuits, pizza dough)
- Make lacto-fermented veggies and fruits (I love pickled radishes, ramps, cabbage, beets, carrots with ginger…yum!)
- Use for soaking any kind of grains (oats for your morning oatmeal)
- Use it as a liquid for making any kind of dip (bean dip, etc)
- Use it for boiling your noodles or rice (the heat will destroy the probiotics and it will loose some of its strength as a lacto-fermented product but it will still be full of protein and flavor!)
- Use it to make pesto or hummus
enjoy!
