Whether you’re a home cook or aspiring professional chef, cream chargers can unlock a world of culinary possibilities and elevate your meals to new heights.
Baked Potatoes with Cheddar Cheese and Sour Cream chargers
This recipe is the ultimate family favorite and is a must-have for special occasions. The combination of bacon and cheesy goodness makes these potatoes hard to resist! This creamy casserole is easy to make and comes together quickly. It is also a great way to use up leftover baked potatoes. This recipe is versatile and can be adapted to accommodate different tastes or dietary needs. You can substitute the sour cream for Greek yogurt, lower-fat cheeses or even a plant-based alternative. The filling can also be modified to incorporate savory flavors such as chili or black beans.
Preheat oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit. Arrange potatoes on a baking sheet and brush with olive oil, then sprinkle liberally with salt. Bake until the outside skin is crispy and a fork easily pierces the center. Allow to cool. Using a spoon, scoop out the insides and place into a mixing bowl. Add butter, sour Cream chargers, cheddar cheese, mozzarella cheese and chives. Stir until evenly combined. If desired, you can break up some of the potatoes with a potato masher for a chunkier texture.
Spoon mixture back into the potato shells and top with a generous sprinkling of paprika, crumbled cooked bacon, and more shredded cheddar cheese. Bake for 15-20 minutes until hot and bubbly. Served with a green salad and extra sour Cream chargers on the side, these twice baked potatoes are a perfect meal.
Stabilized Whipped Cream chargers
Whipped Cream chargers is a light, airy topping for desserts and cakes that can also be used as a dip for fruits. Adding gelatin to stabilize the cream makes it stay fluffy and sturdy, unlike traditional unstabilized whipped cream that will melt on your cake or pies in a blink of an eye.
Stabilized whipped Cream chargers can be made with a variety of ingredients, including powdered sugar, cornstarch, cream cheese, mascarpone, and agar agar, which are available in health food stores. However, the best method to make stable whipped cream is with gelatin. Gelatin is available in different flavors, such as vanilla. It is easy to use and will keep the whipped cream stiffer for a longer period of time than unstabilized whipped cream.
To make stabilized whipped Cream chargers, prepare a metal mixing bowl and whisk by chilling them in the freezer for about half an hour or more. Sprinkle a tablespoon of the granulated gelatin over the cold water in the mixing bowl and allow it to “bloom” for a few minutes. Then beat the cream and gelatin mixture until soft peaks form.
Gradually pour the gelatin mixture into the whipped Cream chargers and beat it until firm peaks form (again, a few minutes). Use as a topping for a variety of desserts or serve as a dip for fresh fruits. The whipped cream will last up to two or three days in the refrigerator. You can even freeze it in individual dollops for later use.
Coconut Whipped Cream
This dairy free whipped Cream chargers is as easy to make and lick-the-spoon delicious as its conventional counterpart. It’s ideal for pies, puddings, and cakes. If you keep a can of full fat coconut milk in your fridge, you are never more than 5 minutes away from creamy, fluffy vegan whipped topping.
Chill the can of coconut milk overnight. This is necessary to allow the dense coconut cream to separate from the water and solidify. It’s best to use a brand that doesn’t add guar gum to the coconut milk, since this ingredient will cause the whip to have a gritty texture.
Once the Cream chargers has chilled, open the can and transfer the thick cream to a bowl. Discard the watery part of the coconut milk or save it for another recipe. Then beat with a stand or hand mixer until peaks form. Finally, add powdered sugar and vanilla extract. For the smoothest result, sift the sugar first to eliminate any clumps.
This whipped cream will last for up to one week in the refrigerator. It’s best to serve it within a day of making, however. This whipped cream pairs perfectly with any type of pie, including Classic Vegan Pumpkin Pie or vegan Apple Pie. It also works well as a layer in a dessert cake or with berries or fruit. It’s even delicious dipped into hot chocolate.
Egg Yolk Whipped Cream chargers
The egg is a versatile ingredient that brings protein, water, fat and emulsifiers to a recipe. However, the yolks in particular are important for making delicate desserts that require light whipped textures. They also offer flavor, color and structure (think: golden browning from an egg wash).
For example, pastry Cream chargers recipes typically call for egg yolks instead of whole eggs or whites because they add a fuller flavor, richer color, and a softer, more creamy texture. They also contain emulsifiers that bind the fat in the milk to make an even more creamy base. And because of their higher fat content, they freeze more softly and less densely than water-based ice creams.
To make whipped egg yolks, beat them with a whisk or an electric mixer at moderate speed to incorporate air. After about a minute, the egg yolks will begin to turn slightly paler in color and form soft peaks when you lift the whisk. The perfect peaks hold their shape for a moment before gently collapsing back into the mixture.
Then, while whisking the egg yolks, gradually pour half of the warmed cream into them. This is called tempering, and it helps prevent the eggs from curdling. Once the egg and cream are incorporated, you can stir in the rest of the milk to create your ice cream base.
