Some ideas on how to cook heavy cream (will thus be abbreviated to HC) so you don't have to drink it straight, because lets be honest that stuff is kinda nasty lol. Also, your body will have a much easier time turning it into fat if you incorporate it into a meal.
- Add to scrambled eggs, about 1 Tbsp per egg. Makes them creamy and fluffy
- Replace the milk in quiche with HC
- "Tiktok cinnamon roll hack" where you pour a little HC over canned cinnamon rolls before baking.
- Creamy soups, such as broccoli cheddar, potato soup, tuscan, etc
- Any curry that calls for coconut milk, swap it for HC
- Recipes that call for a bechamel sauce, such as alfredo sauce, homemade mac & cheese, scalloped potatoes, and so on; you can get away with using half milk / half HC most of the time. If it comes out too thick, you can water it down with more milk.
- "Gainer pudding" use HC instead of milk to make a packet of instant pudding. Using straight HC makes this almost disgustingly thick and rich like frosting, I think a 50/50 milk and HC works best. Credit to "Get BIGR" on YouTube for this
- Replace the milk in Kraft-style mac & cheese w/ HC
- Mashed potatoes. Pour as your heart desires.
- Custard. This includes some homemade puddings.
- Homemade ice cream, but this is a PITA even with a specialized ice cream churner. Or just make the base and drink it, it's the same as melted ice cream. If you have the time & energy to churn, I highly recommend using a recipe with egg yolks in it, it really improves the texture.
- Tbh almost anytime a recipe calls for milk, you can probably replace some of it with HC. If you have a substitution in mind and don't know how to approach it, I'm happy to try and help :)
