Nicole, you have sour cream there. Raw cream left to ferment is sour cream. Use it for the beetroot salad recipe. Yes, there’s no rule in our house that says you must eat your dinner before you get dessert. As long as they TRY everything on their plate they can go ahead and just eat dessert, ’cause, usually it is rich with raw cream, eggs (raw of cooked) honey, butter, rapadura - so nutritious. If your kids are going for the cream, there’s a good reason. Trust their tastes.

I am looking forward to trying this. I have a question Joanne - is there anything that can be done with raw cream that has been sitting in the fridge just a little too long- ie 1 week too long (doesnt taste or smell really bad just yet) Can it be made into something, or left out to curdle like raw milk, any better suggestions? - I guess, I should have just let my kids eat it by the spoonful as they wanted (after reading the article on feeding children!).

I have tried your beet kvass recipe from Nourishing Traditions and did not like it at all! It was, however, fertilizer for my organic garden, so it didn’t go to waste.

Is there some other way to get the same health benefits? What about just fresh beet juice with carrot juice?

Thanks.
