Download or read book The Kefir Cookbook written by Julie Smolyansky and published by HarperCollins. This book was released on 2018-03-06 with total page 481 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over 100 globally-inspired sweet and savory recipes made with one of the most probiotic-rich and nutrient-dense superfoods on the planet Derived from the Turkish word “keif” meaning “feeling good,” kefir is a tart, tangy cultured milk, low in sugar and lactose free, and an excellent source of protein, calcium, and B vitamins. Originating from a grain that dates back two thousand years to the Caucasus Mountains of Europe, it is also one of the healthiest natural foods available—scientifically shown to help boost immunity, improve gut health, build bone density, fight allergies, and aid the body’s natural detoxification. In 1986, ten years after they emigrated from Kiev, Michael and Ludmila Smolyansky introduced kefir to America. Today their children, Julie and Edward, lead Lifeway Foods Inc., the Smolyansky family company and the top-selling kefir brand in America. In The Kefir Cookbook, Julie shares her family’s abiding love of kefir through treasured family stories and innovative recipes. From Ludmila’s Borscht, a staple of life behind the Iron Curtain, to Nutella Smoothies, a homage to the Rome that welcomed them as refugees, and Kefir Jerk Chicken, a celebration of friendship experienced with her young daughters, these dishes showcase the versatility of this ancient healing food. While kefir can be drunk straight from the bottle, whipped into smoothies, or used in parfaits and smoothie bowls, Julie reveals in more than 100 recipes—including contributions by Christy Turlington Burns, Seamus Mullen, and Katrina Markoff—how it can also be blended with your favorite comfort foods to add tang, boost creaminess, and elevate their nutritional properties. Deeply personal, The Kefir Cookbook offers unique spins on classic recipes, while introducing contemporary flavors and textures to inspire you in the kitchen every day.

It usually consists of cow, sheep or goat's milk that is fermented with kefir grains - a combination of beneficial bacteria and yeast. This mixture helps the milk to ferment and provides it with its unique taste, texture and nutritional benefits. Kefir is revered for its probiotic content, as it is an abundant source for beneficial bacteria and yeasts. These probiotics help maintain a healthy balance of good bacteria within the gut flora, which can improve digestion and overall immune system health. Additionally, kefir is also high in nutrients, including B vitamins, calcium and phosphorus. Furthermore, the fermentation process boosts the nutritive content of the kefir further, producing probiotic cultures that aid in digestion, absorption and utilization of the nutrients found in the beverage. Overall, kefir contains a wealth of health benefits that include improved digestion, a strong immune system, weight loss, and more. Kefir has even been credited with having anti-inflammatory, antiviral and anti-fungal properties, suggesting it may be helpful in disease prevention as well.
