Awesome! Gfcfsf Cream Substitute For Cooking!

[climbmtwhitney]

Hi and Happy New Year!

I have to share.......I found a gluten-free, casein-free AND soy-free cream substitute. It's Mimiccreme. It has no saturated fat or trans fat either. It's made from water, almonds, cashews and rice starch.

Sounds weird, but I tried it and LOVE it. It looks and tastes like cream. I made beef stroganoff yesterday and sub'd the sour cream with it. Turned out awesome. Today I made Nordstrom's Tomato Basil soup sub'd it for the cream. Honestly I could NOT tell the difference between this batch and the ones I used to make. I'm in love!

BTW I don't work for Mimiccreme nor do I know anybody that does. I finally found it at my local health food store after stumbling across it about a month ago online. It runs about $6/quart, but so worth it. You can also order it online, but the shipping was very expensive. The website is www.mimiccreme.com.

They also make a sweetened version for baking.

Anyway, had to share.

Cheers!

I just saw this in the natural food store today! I can have dairy (at least, so far I can), but it's nice to know that there's a reasonable alternative! Hooray for nuts!!!! (It's made from cashew and almond, I think)
