Dry Sweeteners – Coconut Sugar (1:1 ratio for regular sugar), Maple Syrup Sugar (2x stronger than white sugar).Click (here) to read more about these sweeteners. Each sweetener adds its own flavor profile. Liquid Sweeteners – Maple Syrup, Coconut Nectar, Yacon Syrup, and Honey – work great as long as the coconut whip isn’t to liquidity.Click ( here) for more Diabetic / Low Glycemic Index Sweetener ideas.Markus Sweet – Made from Lohan Guo Monk Fruit and Erythritol, a natural alcohol sugar found in the human body made from non-GMO plant sources.Be sure to powder it first otherwise it can lead to a grainy whipped topping. Erythritol works great when a dry sweetener is needed.Since you use very little, you don’t have to worry about adding too much liquid to the coconut whip and thining it out. NuNaturals Liquid Stevia – I have had good success using nothing else but NuNaturals stevia but I realize that not everybody likes stevia.If the texture is thick and waxy, a liquid sweetener will help to smooth it out. So in this case, you will want to use sugar that has been powdered. If the cream is really soft, adding a liquid sweetener might thin it down even more. Wait to add the sweetener until after you have whipped the coconut milk and know what the consistency is of your cream. You can start reading about guar gum ( here). Below I started a list of canned coconut milk that I have tested and noted whether it worked or not. When I pressed the nozzle, it came out in a liquid state and looked as though it had separated. In my experience, low-fat doesn’t work well… so I am going to blunt and just say, “No” The whipping cream must have a minimum fat content of 28% to produce whipped cream with a dispenser. I tried to use fresh Young Thai Coconut meat, blending it to a cream, but with this unit but it didn’t work. :) Can I use low-fat ingredients? (cream, milk, coconut milk) In reality, it gets used far too quickly so I really can’t speak beyond a few days. Depending on the ingredients used that can be up to 14 days. The “cream” that is stored in the canister will stay fresh for as long as the shelf life of your “cream” was before adding it. Another good thing is that the Chargers never expire so you can keep them handy in the pantry. That one charger will turn 1 pint of “cream” liquid into roughly 4-5 pints of whipped cream! Once the chargers are empty, you can recycle them along with other household metals. I can only speak for the ISI brand, others may differ, but for a 1 pint of ingredients, you need one charger. I have found that not ALL canned full-fat coconut milk works. If you are unsure, you can always put the mixture through a fine-mesh strainer before pouring it into the canister. When adding the ingredients into the whipping cream dispenser, make sure they are lump-free and smooth. Another option is my Raw Cashew Whip Cream recipe. You can use other liquid sweeteners, add extracts such as vanilla, and a drop of your favorite essential oil. Once creamy, I poured it into my ISI Whipped Cream Dispenser, shook it, and I was ready to go. To create the whipped cream in the photo to the right, I combined one can of chilled Full-fat coconut milk and one dropper full of NuNatural liquid stevia in the blender. A whipped cream dispenser needs to be shaken after the cartridge is inserted so that the gas can bind with the fats in the cream. Therefore the whipped cream only becomes a solid or foam when you press the lever. N2O is extremely soluble in fatty compounds it is dissolved in the fatty cream until it leaves the canister. It’s totally food-safe, and it’s what you find in aerosol cans of whipped topping. How does it work?įor the unit to create whipped cream, you will require a charger, which is made of pure N2O (Nitrous Oxide) gas which is odorless and tasteless. You can make whipped cream by hand with a hand mixer but with one of these dispensers you can create five times the volume of the ingredients that go into the canister. The ISI Whipped Cream Dispenser may be late to getting on my list, but it now has earned a permanent place. I have a list of “my most powerful kitchen tools” (blender. I love the simple things in life… and Homemade Whipped Cream is one of those things.
