Do you eat kefir? / myLot

January 21, 2024 2:41am CST

Kefir is a very healthy beverage. It has minerals, vitamins, and probiotic bacteria. My mom bought some kefir without lactose because I am lactose intolerant. Everything without lactose is more expensive. There are several ways to eat kefir. One is to pour it over your cereal. We can bake with it or cook with it. It can be added to soups or mashed potatoes. I read that we can make ice cream with kefir. There are many ways to eat it. Do you eat kefir in one way or another?

Kefir and yogurt are both dairy foods made from fermenting milk. Kefir is higher in nutritional value, has a less thick texture, you can drink it.

Sorry. I'm not familiar with kefir. A healthy beverages we have are coconut water, pineapple juice, orange juice, guyabano juice, among others.

No problem. Maybe it's not available there. We have coconut water here, but it is very expensive and kefir is cheaper.

@dya80dya Before coconut is given free for most people don't know its nutritious or healthy value. Now they know. Coconut water costs a lot now.

I haven't tried kefir. Wonder if it's available here. Yogurt is much more popular.

You can drink kefir if you find it. It seems to be healthier than yogurt. I think that you have other foods available.

Used to make it myself with milk, I do not like the water kefir mix. Used it for a long time as a replacement for yoghurt. I often had too much of it, so then I made kefir cheese, which is basically similar to labneh. Sometimes it over-fermented then I used to make a hard brined cheese similar to feta. It is a good thing to eat. Here we get it in the shops easily.

Here we also can find it easily. Do you make kefir cheese at home? Is it difficult to make it?

I know what it is and I drank a lot of it in Latvia. I don't think it is available here and when I once bought buttermilk it was nothing like what I enjoyed in Latvia.

It is my first time to hear about kefir. I've never used it. I'm glad it has many uses.

Not sure if I can find this in India, though being a lactose intolerant just like you, this sounds amazing... Thanks for sharing, let me give it a try!!!
