So happy to see this channel growing, there needs to more of this on youtube.

[@bumblebeeapothecary]

Thank you!

[@Krunchykey]

OK, so I bought your gaps to go meal plan and honestly was so overwhelmed but your meal plan and method has made it so simple! And I didn’t realize that I was already doing a lot of the things that I needed for the gaps diet such as cultured cream and everything else, your resources are so helpful thank you so much for all that you do!

[@olivia-surenwhitaker5223]

I want to personally thank you marissa for having so much content which really helps me as an ADHD girly to translate the books into reality

[@alecschester1824]

Probably very basic but I’d love to see a video on making GAPS cream cheese 😊 I always read that it’s very easy to make but have never found how to do it.

[@mariaroqueta3135]

YES PLEASE! CREAM CHEESE!!!♥️

[@thomasgronek6469]

I’m not familiar with GAPS protocol, but regular cream cheese is made by hanging sour cream in a tight-weave cheesecloth or muslin overnight. It thickens into cream cheese

[@Joemakatozi1776]

Did this on accident. My daughter left the raw cream wrapped in a towel kin the car for 2 days. I'm here to see what happened to it. It tastes amazing.

[@kayliethompson8961]

This is great! Love how you explained all of those different methods. Thank you!

[@tammycraine7493]

I cup raw or pasteurized cream to two tablespoons of kefir. No need to heat before hand!

[@tammycraine7493]

Stir, put a loose lid or fabric over it. The fabric encourages wild yeasts. Preferably use wood to stir. Usually key it sit for 2 to 3 days.

[@roseprovost6993]

She says use 1 cup cream to 2 TBS kefir

[@Troy-Moses]

I bet this makes some amazing ice cream. By the way, you solved my ice cream dilemma by previously advising to add more eggs; so I doubled up on it. Now I do: 1 quart heavy cream, 12 yolks, 1 cup milk (for iciness) -- very close to perfection.

[@bumblebeeapothecary]

Awesome! Thanks for sharing!

[@lorettamargaret2243]

Do you use a ice cream maker?

[@Troy-Moses]

@@lorettamargaret2243 Yes...

[@rhondaw6503]

You have inspired me! I just signed up for a local milk share and ordered a yogurt making setup. Thank you!

[@bumblebeeapothecary]

So glad to hear it! :)

[@handsandfeethomestead9116]

Thank you so much for this video, this is exactly the information i was looking for. Wonderful clear explanation!😃

[@sishrac]

Very informative, thank you!! 🙏

[@OPIXdotWORLD]

yes..i agree...its nice to learn old fashioned ways.

[@Zanner1015]

Awesome video! Thanks for the updated recipe.

[@bumblebeeapothecary]

Thank you!

[@ShikhaBhattarai]

Hi Melisa, I don't respond well to dairy. Can I eat sauerkraut instead of cultured cream throughout the GAPS diet? Thank you!

[@karenthelen7492]

Hi , do I need warm up the cream if I am using Kalona super Natural whipping cream? They pasteurize their products at low temps. So I am unsure if I should warm it before adding the yogurts (which I am going to use the same brand plain yogurt, Kalona super natural). Thank you in advance and I love your videos and all the knowledge that you share with us!

[@Cooking-tg1mj]

great!

[@erinncowart280]

Hello, I’m trying rendering tallow in the crockpot today, it’s been bubbling away for 6 hours and there are still solid chunks in it that are definitely fat, not gristle. How long is the initial rendering supposed to take?

[@guldanaesentur6182]

Hey beautiful, I have a question about eczema, it’s true eczema born with it ? Thank you so much for your answer 🫶🏻

[@ShikhaBhattarai]

Hi Melisa, I just started the GAPS diet today. I am iron deficient. Is it okay for me to take the iron supplement while on the GAPS diet? Is there any you would recommend? Thank you!

[@anamoreno2303]

ohhh everytime i added something new yo my journey you made a video. i buy my cream from the farm that buy eggs and raw milk. the cream is pasteurised but its thicker than normal and live it to culture for 24 hours and its super thick.my little boy loves it with raw honey . my question is once cultured how long does it last in the fridge?

[@Alexandra-oy2xu]

I have a question for you since you are a certified gaps coach! I’ve been on gaps for 6 months and just found out this morning that the venison sausage I’ve been eating fairly regularly (once a week at least) changed its ingredients to add maple sugar and 2% or less rice hull. I’ve unknowingly been eating it for who knows how long, does this mean I should restart my 2 year countdown? Or maybe go back to intro or phase 1 to help my gut a little extra? Let me know your thoughts if you have time and see this! Thanks Marissa! 🙂

[@darlajones1552]

Sally Fallon ( Nourishing Traditions) calls for buttermilk as the culture for Cultured cream. Is that not allowed on GAPS because buttermilk is typically store bought? My family has an A2 dairy farm (cows on pasture 100% with the exception of being milked) so I make my own buttermilk out of the best quality raw milk you can find! Any reason that would not be Gaps approved?

[@angelicaroberts4624]

Hello. How long does this keep for in the fridge?

[@minnesotajen8828]

Can you use store bought kefir?

[@berthaimona6909]

Is there a Western A Price Foundation chapter in NZ? Cheers.

[@anamoreno2303]

how long does it last . Usually use in a week but not sure

Love it!! Could you put the link to get the book please? ❤

[@lena1122]

Thank you so much 🙏

[@anamoreno2303]

i do this with organic cream and kefir on the cultured. Did you say it will spoilt?

[@OfficialModernDayGypsyPodcast]

can i use raw kefir and regular cream to make gaps sour cream? if so how do i do this

[@lunarose6714]

Oops! I have been making yoghurt with a yoghurt maker, but only putting it in for one cycle (8 hours!) - do you think I can use this yoghurt to make cultured cream, which from now on I will keep in the yogurt maker for 24 hours? Or do I need to start from scratch? Thank you x

[@stevefrank733]

I may suggest instead of using your hands to wash and salt the butter, please try the dough hook on the stand mixer. You can wash the butter on slow speed changing the cold water a few times to remove the remaining buttermilk. When the water is clear after final wash, drain water add salt and let it mix thoroughly. You"ll find this is a much easier hands off approach.

[@Nursemosmer]

Hi! Once you make the kefir sour cream, can you then turn that into cultured butter? Do you have a video on this?

[@judesterification]

I have raw heavy cream. It has been in the fridge for 8 days, plus a day shipped with ice packs. Is that ok to take out of fridge and put it on the counter to start fermenting? Its not bad that it was in fridge for days? I should leave it at room temperature for how long? Thank you Do you do consultations

[@Thomas.3698]

Leave it out in a glass jar, lightly covered as demonstrated. For 3 days. Then use it.

[@joecaz]

Can I use pasteurized heavy whipping cream? Or what are other common names to correct store-bought cream? You're a very good teacher!

[@bumblebeeapothecary]

Thank you so much! I never use ultra high temp pasteurized cream, but low temp/vat pasteurized cream from organic grass fed cows is a great option when raw isn't available :)

[@modestbeauty270]

Can you make a video showing step by step on how you culture and ferment Kalona Supernatural cream?

[@traceybarnett1103]

Where can I get the glass bottles with plastic lids please

[@hope4change2012]

I looked up the cook book you mentioned at the end. It’s $150 on Amazon 😮‍💨

[@CreeperDude-cm1wv]

Use her link. It's $65

[@Myladybug70]

I didn’t see the link for the recipe book?

[@kristinebutcher4819]

Hi Marissa, thank you for sharing your recipes! I am using raw goat milk & cannot get the cream like you do with raw cow milk. will I ever be able to make your Cultured Cream & other items that require that cream from raw cow milk?

[@mjwatt17]

Where can I get raw cream? If I'm unable to buy raw do I use half and half, heavy cream. I am Lactose intolerant. Can I safely make this sour cream?

[@amberbrittany7546]

What about raw cream with vat pasteurized kefir ?

[@sirishaNeNi]

Hi Marissa is that possible to do Gaps diet with out eating beef and pork.. .. we eat rest of the meets like goat lamb chicken turkeys and fish shrimp

[@bumblebeeapothecary]

Yes, absolutely!

[@sirishaNeNi]

Thank you 🙏🏻

[@roseprovost6993]

What do we do if we can’t find raw cream or raw milk?

[@cathr08]

How long does it last in the fridge?

[@normacabrera5645]

I’m trying to make a purchase on your website and it takes me to Buffalo gal, are you not selling products anymore?

[@mariaroqueta3135]

Same has happened to me… I too am confused if Marisa is still selling her Bumblebee stuff.

[@isabelaguilar7507]

Hi, if I culture cream with yogurt, do I put it in the yogurt maker for 24-hours? That part of this video confused me because all of the other 3 ways you are putting it on the counter for a few days ...

[@mariebowman2152]

Can I use Raw Kefir for this ?

[@JennySimon206]

And then make cultured butter too?

[@margaretkozikowski8436]

Thank you Marissa! Question for you. I made lip balm twice, first time lucky, second time not so much. It was hard as rock. Can I remelt, and add more beeswax, or what do you recommend?

[@bumblebeeapothecary]

Adding more beeswax would make it harder yet - I would melt and add some liquid oil to soften the finished mixture :)

[@margaretkozikowski8436]

@@bumblebeeapothecary thank you so much! My first batch was perfect, I didn’t even add much beeswax to this one, but the beef fat was so different to work with. Lambs fat is best!🥰

[@t4nimet]

How will it affect the result if the "raw" cream has been flash frozen?

[@bumblebeeapothecary]

From my understanding, it shouldn't change it too much; freezing may kill some friendly microbes and change the texture some, but it should be okay as you're adding life back to it when culturing :)

[@mitzimeyer2928]

Could you use coconut cream and culture that?

[@bumblebeeapothecary]

Yes, you just have to make sure the culture you're using will work with coconut :)

[@CLAYnation.]

This is off topic but I followed your rendering beef tallow by wet method video. My tallow turned out pretty white but it smells sort of like burnt cow hair. Is that normal? I rendered it three times.

[@Thomas.3698]

Give up. Sounds disgusting

[@adeline2323]

Hello, I have a question :when you do the 3rd method (pasteurized cream), after heating it, you say to let it 2 to 3 days on the counter but do you put something in it or you just let the cream alone? Many thanks for your reply

[@bumblebeeapothecary]

After it cools, you add a starter :)

[@private9013]

Can you make yogurt and cultures with organic ultra pasteurized if you have no access to raw milk? I live five hours away from a raw milk source and can't afford to travel like that.

[@richardpearson9337]

Beautiful food from a beautiful lady.

[@bumblebeeapothecary]

Thank you :)

[@hope4change2012]

I wonder if I can do this with breast milk?

[@2225ram]

What about Goats. Milk?

[@Ov3rshot]

Is Sour Cream the same as Cultured Cream?

[@sunmoonstars3879]

Yes she says towards the start that it’s the same as sour cream and creme fraiche

[@debi7105]

Why cant i make my own Kefir Grains?

[@ravenswoodwitch58]

I got lost half way through as it was quite a lot to take in. Great video great though
