Guest guest Posted December 22, 2003 Report Share Posted December 22, 2003 I've been going through this, too. I think we are working through it. I mix it with equal parts of pear sauce and a bit of honey. I then put just a bit on the spoon and have water ready. At first I just made her take a 2 small bites, but she's now up to 6 good bites. I know it tastes fine and she seems to be getting used to it. It is a totally new taste for , so I think she will start eating it independently once she's over the initial stage of getting used to something new and different. Good luck.

Guest guest Posted December 22, 2003 Report Share Posted December 22, 2003 I sweeten my son's goat yogurt with a pinch of stevia powder. I think Elaine decided stevia was okay for our kids. in Scotland Tips on giving goat yogurt > Hi, > > Can anybody suggests some tips on giving goat yougurt?

However, you must be very careful about the added ingredients to stevia. At least one company adds what they describe as " a natural free-flowing agent " , which turns out to a be one of the illegal sugar alcohols.... -- Marilyn (New Orleans, Louisiana, USA) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted December 24, 2003 Report Share Posted December 24, 2003 Hi Patty, Thanks for your message. Since I am new at this, could you please explain me what you mean by dripping the yogurt. Thanks Trisha > You might also try dripping your yogurt, if you haven't already...... that removes some of the tart " goaty " taste. > > Patti, mom to Katera, SCD 8 months and just started on a new seizure medication. > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 24, 2003 Report Share Posted December 24, 2003 The bacteria are left behind when you drip the yogurt but most of the minerals go down the drain with the liquid that is dripped off. Initially we dripped the yogurt but now we eat it whole. I still drip a batch now and then to substitute for DCCC. Dripped yogurt makes great cheesecake!: ) Maddie > Trisha, > > Line a colander with a tea towell and place the whole thing over a bowl. Pour the yogurt in (but make sure it is all done with it's 24 hrs of fermenting and has chilled in the fridge for 6 to 8 hours first), put the whole contraption back in the fridge for a few hours. I do mine overnight sometimes. A lot of the liquid will drain off and you'll be left with a very thick product..... almost like sour cream..... that is much less tart and has less of the goat-ish taste...... but all of the good bacteria. > > Patti, mom to Katera, SCD 8 months > ----- Original Message ----- > Thanks for your message.
