Recipes are coded for the
BASIC food intolerance categories
used.
REFER TO THE FOOD SUBSTITUTIONS LIST FOR ALTERNATIVE INGREDIENTS..
and THE FOOD RESOURCE LIST to be sure the products you are using are safe for you.
Most ingredients can usually be substituted.
Following are the codes used for the recipes. It is the same key used for
THE FOOD RESOURCE LIST
and FOOD SUBSTITUTIONS LIST :
NOTE: A BLANK SPACE NEXT TO AN INGREDIENT MEANS IT IS "NEUTRAL."

 

KEY FOR CODES
D =
Dairy
Ms =
Mine Salt
E =
Egg
P =

G =
Grain
Ss =

Important HINTS:

* Western Family Baking Soda is neutral. Other brands may contain potato.

* Ground cloves usually contain fruit. Whole clove is neutral.

* If using bottled vanilla, look to see what solution it is in. If in alcohol, then it will most likely evaluate positive for grain. If in glycerin, then it is either fruit or meat.

*It is suggested to use Celtic salt in all recipes, as it is neutral.

* Yeast is coded "P or S" - Refer to The Food Resource List for the different yeasts and what they analyzed positive for.

* Do not be afraid to use a recipe just because it may contain your food intolerance. All you need to do is to refer to The FOOD SUBSTITUTIONS LIST for alternatives.

Our goal is to help you become familiar with various ingredients so that you are able to easily adapt recipes to fit your needs.

BAKED CUSTARD
(By Sandra Strom CEO Song of Health)

FOOD CATEGORY INGREDIENTS
E
3 eggs or 6 egg yolks
D or
G,Sy
3 cups milk or
Rice-Soy Blend Milk or
substitute with your favorite grain or non-dairy beverage)
H
1/3 cup honey
(varies, depending on base)
1-1/2 tsp. vanilla
 
few grains of salt
F
few grains nutmeg

Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees.
With a fork beat eggs just enough to blend evenly.
Slowly stir in milk, honey, salt and vanilla, being careful not to over-beat. Pour into buttered custard cups. Sprinkle with nutmeg.
Set in a baking pan. Pour hot water into the outside pan about 1 inch. Bake approximately 45 minutes.
Test by inserting a silver knife into the custard near the edge. If it comes out clean, custard will be firm when it cools. Serve in baking cups or turn out, upside down.
Makes 6 small custards.
Hint: The secret to smooth, yummy custard is to stir only until slightly blended. Over-beating will cause the custard to taste more like scrambled eggs!

VARIATIONS:

* To make in one large dish:

Use 4 eggs so that it will be firm enough to turn out on a serving dish without cracking, if desired.

* Substitute maple syrup for part or all of the honey. The custard will "weep" when done, but the flavor will still be wonderful. Just pour the separated sweet liquid over the served custard.

* BLUEBERRY-MAPLE BAKED CUSTARD

 

Add blueberries (F) to eggs with remaining ingredients.

Substitute maple syrup for all or part of the honey.

BLANC MANGE (VANILLA CORNSTARCH PUDDING)
WITH HONEY
(By Sandra Strom, CEO of Song of Health)

FOOD CATEGORY INGREDIENTS
D
2-1/4 cups cold milk
H
1/3 cup honey
G
3 Tbsp. cornstarch
 
1/4 tsp. salt
(varies)
1-1/2 tsp. vanilla

Stir constantly, being careful not to scorch, for approximately 15 minutes until the pudding thickens. Remove from heat and cool slightly.

MOCK CHILI RELLENO CUSTARD
(By Sandra Strom, CEO of Song of Health)

This is a quick and easy dish to prepare during the holiday rush.

 Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

FOOD CATEGORY INGREDIENTS
(Not evaluated)
or
N
1 4-oz. can mild whole green chilies or
1/2 cup fresh roasted chili peppers*
D
½ lb. cheddar or Monterrey jack cheese, grated
E
2 eggs
D
2 cups milk
G
½ cup flour
1/2 tsp. salt

Using a pan large enough to place an 8 inch baking dish in, fill with water to half full.  Place in oven as it preheats, in order to get the water hot.
Grease an 8 inch square baking dish.
Cut peppers into 2 inch pieces.  Place in baking dish.
Cover with the grated cheese.
Beat together the eggs, milk, flour and salt.
Pour over the cheese and peppers.
Carefully place the baking dish into the pan of water and return to oven.  (I pull the rack with the pan of water out enough to place the dish in, then carefully push it back into the oven.)
Bake for 45 minutes, or until custard sets.
Yield: 4 servings
* The fresh chilis are best prepared by fire roasting the skins first. This can be accomplished by carefully placing chili pepper over flame of a gas stove burner. (Electric stove burner on high will work.) Rotate and roast just until skins are darkened.
Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
Oil a baking dish; place chilis in dish, turning in oil to coat.
Roast for about 20 minutes, or until soft.

Rice Custard

 

VIRGINIA APPLE PUDDING
(By Sandra Strom, CEO of Song of Health)

The original recipe was given to me by my mother. I have adapted it for personal use.

FOOD CATEGORY INGREDIENTS
D or
Sy
(check product for other ingredients)
1 cup butter or
margarine
G
1 cup sifted flour
may contain P or
N
2 tsp. baking powder or
3/4 tsp. baking soda (Western Family brand is neutral)
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. cinnamon
H
½-3/4 cup honey, personal taste
D
1 cup milk
F
2 cups cooked or canned apple slices (I use fresh apples)

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
Melt butter in a 2 quart casserole dish.
To make batter:  Combine dry ingredients in a bowl.
Stir in honey and milk, mixing thoroughly but do not overbeat.
Pour into casserole dish.
If apples are canned, drain.  Pile the apple slices in the center of the batter.
Bake 30-40 minutes, until batter covers fruit and the crust browns.
Serves 4 to 6.

 

FRUIT FREE HOMEMADE YOGURT
(By Terri Bade, Song of Health Subscriber)

FRUIT, GRAIN, POTATO FREE!
Terri uses the Yogourmet brand yogurt maker because it will make 1/2 gallon at a time..

FOOD CATEGORY INGREDIENTS
D
1/2 gallon milk (any milk will work, i.e. raw, half and half, etc.)
 
9 capsules Ayush Probiotic 30B (availabe at Windrose Naturopathic Clinic)*

In a large pot heat milk to 180 degrees, using a candy thermometer. (I use one that hooks onto pot edge for ease of use.) Do not allow to boil.
Cool milk to 114 degrees. (I quickly cool it in a sink with a little cold water 2 inches up sides of pot.)
Stir in contents of probiotic capsules.
Pour into warmed yogurt maker and cover.
Warm for 24 hours.

To start new batch:
Save 1/4 cup of current batch to use as starter. This eliminates the need for probiotic capsules.

Suggestions: Have fun experimenting!
* You may be able to use less probiotic capsules. Terri has used as little as 6 capsules and has succeeded with good results also.
* Use half and half with the milk for a creamier, richer yogurt. This tastes delicious with honey; cooked rhubarb and honey; or cooked pumpkin with honey and cinnamon.
* To make cream cheese: Strain finished yogurt using cheese cloth. Add honey to the thickened yogurt.
* Use the yogurt as a substitute for sour cream.

TROUBLESHOOTING:
* Milk boiled - Will not work well. Best not to try using. Start over with other milk.
* Milk cooled too quickly, now lower than 114 degrees: Reheat milk to 114 degrees. Then add probiotic.
* The yogurt is till runny after warming for longer than 24 hours: Skim off some of the whey; place in refrigerator to get cold. The yogurt will become less runny as it cools.

* Contact Windrose Clinic to purchase the probiotic capsules.
