Must admit I'm more of a salad/veggie person with burrata so that I can wallow in it's creamy deliciousness. I agree with @Antje77 though in that it could be used to top mince type dishes (bolognese) or meatballs. I'd just rip and top. It would work on top of a meatza as well. It's something I think would complement lamb chops as well although again I'd mix with veggies.Question about burrata. Had never heard of it until I read about it here - think @Antje77 and @maglil55 may have mentioned it. Found some in M&S yesterday. Aside from eating it straight out of the tub - which does sound quite appealing - any ideas for a carnivore in terms of meal ideas? Would it warm into a decent sauce to go with leftover beef, for example?
Looks fab - you should start your own business - I bet the smell of it baking is amazing and warm bread fresh from the oven - winner! Btw I got in touch with slc and they have sent me another ready mix so I will give it another try sometime ...Experimented with my loaf of bread yet again and think I have found what is for me the perfect loaf. Ive reduced ingredients mainly by a third to get at right size and also brought back the eggs and butter into the mix. feel best result to date so promise this will be the final version I share!!!!
Low carb bread using vital wheat gluten and inulin to ‘feed’ the yeast
I used a stand mixer to knead the bread mixture. I used a loaf tin 30cms in length and 11cms I also used a bread slicer to cut the bread into even slices. Bread freezes well once cut into slices.
Carb content of the whole mixture is 20g per loaf – I managed to slice the loaf into 35 reasonable size slices which worked out as 0.6g per slice.
Yeast starter - Start 30 -40 mins before making the bread
Two cups of warm water -One tablespoon of inulin dissolved in the warm water
15g (2 teaspoons) of dried yeast (traditional – not fast acting) sprinkled on the water and cover with cling film or similar
Should quickly form a froth - if warm place may be in 20 mins but cooler places can take up to 40 mins.
While the yeast is proving
Whisk two room temperature eggs with some salt added to taste and measure out half a cup of warm water. Put both to one side
In a mixer bowl add:
100g of milled seeds (I use organic golden linseed)
50g of oat fibre
50g of psyllium husk the fibre variety not the powdered one (NB make sure that it is the Blond variety as some can turn the bread purple!)
160g of vital wheat gluten
50g of butter (ideally softened – brought to room temp)
Mix the dry ingredients and butter together with a dough hook then add the proven yeast mix in a well in middle of the mixture and let it stand for about 5 mins. Then turn mixer on and slowly add the proven yeast starter and finally the beaten eggs mixed with salt (Salt kills yeast so add after yeast mix is beaten in.) if mix still dry add the extra half a cup of warm water – judge as go along. Knead for at least 5 mins until mixed and stretchy. I kneaded for 10 mins in total at different speeds.
Prepare a buttered loaf tin with baking paper at bottom. Add the dough to the tin, and cover with buttered Clingfilm (or reusable silicone sheet) and tea towel. Leave until doubled in size this can take 1 – 2 hours depending on how warm it is.
Meanwhile heat oven to 180 fan.
Bake for 35 mins, and then tip out of tin and put back in for 5 mins to finish off. (Cooking time 40 mins in total)

How many carbs per lolly?Today - Sunday bed 6.8 FBG 6.1.
LIDL have high protein ice cream ice lollies.
https://aliveicecream.com/product/high-protein-vanilla/
Our Lidl only has the vanilla and chocolate lollies but they are really nice. As normal, they give you the 100g nutrition but the lollies are roughly 1/2 that.
B. TAG and 2 slices SLC toast with pate.
L. Nothing.
D. Wasn't going to eat. Hubby & I were both feeling a bit "off" yesterday evening. Nothing specific, I think we just had a bit of residual bug. However, I started to improve and ended up with a pink, 3 bone rack of lamb with mint sauce and one of these cauli/broccoli souffle things. I also had one of these new Lidl lollies - vanilla.
Skipped my usual campari though.
I'm starting to feel more normal again.
About 6.2 in the vanilla one.How many carbs per lolly?
1.8 in a whole pack of the shrimp (but I add extras - cauli rice, mushroom etc), 7.2 in the cauli/broccoli souffle thing. Watch because they also do a potato version of the souffle thing. It's called a creamy cauliflower & broccoli "something".How many carbs are in the shrimp thing and the souffles?
Many thanks for sharing - they all sound delicious - I will give them a try - the lollies are ideal too - and all low carbs - fab x1.8 in a whole pack of the shrimp (but I add extras - cauli rice, mushroom etc), 7.2 in the cauli/broccoli souffle thing. Watch because they also do a potato version of the souffle thing. It's called a creamy cauliflower & broccoli "something".
It would work on top of a meatza as well
