I was so surprised when I read about how UHT milk was dangerous to health in Beslenme Bulteni. Ever since that day the advice from dear Pr Dr Ahmet Aydin :”Prefer raw milk and consume it as kefir and yogurt.” became my motto. But this is not possible for those with casein intolerance.

I have already given hazelnut, coconut and almond milk recipes for those with intolerances. Cashew milk on the other hand is very special to me. It has a much dense and creamy texture than others and is very delicious. It is possible to use it i every kind of drink, dessert, ice cream, pudding and even soups. As it is also low in carbs, I feel free to give it to Bade without extra shots of insulin. I on the other hand, like it in my coffee.
