2 questions- mayo and whipping cream

Re: 2 questions- mayo and whipping cream

cold soup...not so sure i'd like it, what kind do you suggest?? because i cant even make a cream soup now because my whipping cream has dextrose in it.

Gazpacho maybe? Or chilled cucumber mint soup? Or chilled zucchini soup?

In the cucumber soup, I usually add some creme fraiche.

Not a veggie... but you can make avocado soup too. All you need is avocado, broth, lemon juice, sour creme (or creme fraiche), chili peppers (I use canned), chili powder, salt and pepper...

And these are two recipes for gazpacho:

I am in Canada. The cream I buy is cool. Made by Beatrice (an Ontario firm I think)

Re: 2 questions- mayo and whipping cream

Oh no - I would not drink cream with dextrose in it. Believe you me. Nothing gets into by body without that label being carefully studied.

Yes Whipping Cream. The real stuff 35% - I am into cream. It is one of those things that I really enjoy about being on Atkins. I buy it a liter at the time

Re: 2 questions- mayo and whipping cream

Sorry guys, that's the carton I buy, 2 a week. And as I said earlier, the dextrose must be quite low, to not list it as a carb, ie. less than 1 gram. I'm waiting on replies to my emails that I sent out to Parmalat Dairy, (owner of Beatrice), Beatrice, and Neilson. If they don't answer by next Tuesday, I will send another email to each of them If nothing else, I am persistent

Gotta get to work,

Re: 2 questions- mayo and whipping cream

I have two cartons Beatrice whipping cream in my fridge. Neither has dextrose. Maybe they do add it out east but not here in the west. I really don't get it.

Re: 2 questions- mayo and whipping cream

A friend of mine in Ontario just sent me the list of ingredients from her carton of Neilson...

fresh whipping cream 35 % ..500ml

ingredients: cream, milk, skim milk powder*, cellulose gel*, carrageenan, mono and diglycerides*, cellulose gum, polysorbate 80*, sodium citrate*.

*may or may not be present.

As you see ... no dextrose.

So again, what % do you have?

Re: 2 questions- mayo and whipping cream

I don't get this. You really don't have 100% cream with no other ingredients in Canada?
If it has milk as well as cream, it's not like our double cream and surely not like American heavy cream ... it sounds like what they call half and half.

EDIT: OK I found this. I believe you now
Where can I buy "heavy cream"? - Ontario (including Toronto) - Chowhound

Re: 2 questions- mayo and whipping cream

Ah ... language!

Heavy cream ... whipping cream!
