Carao Recipes and Suggestions

Judy's Carao Recipe

Ingredients 

• hazelnut milk
• cacao nibs ground in a coffee grinder
• slippery elm
• omega 3 oil
• carao
• (option - a bit of Grand Marnier)

Per Person:

• hazelnut or other nutmilk or cow's milk   - 1 cup
• carao syrup 1-2 Tb
• cacao nibs ground in a coffee grinder - 1 Tb
• Slippery elm - 1 T
• omega 3 oil - 1 t
   
  The slippery elm and omega oil are added for their health benefit and are optional.)

Some variations

• add a banana.
• add some coconut
• add Grand Marnier or other liquer
• add cinnamon and nutmeg

If you would like to make this into a pudding you can add a tsp or more of arrowroot.  I found that you have to heat up the arrowroot, to thicken it and then add it to the blender otherwise it won't thicken.   When you heat the arrowroot you add a little water, or the nutmilk would work, I think,  to form a  solution, then when it thickens, add it to the blender with everything elseIt makes a  nice pudding.

Blend.
 
It is excellent tasting, and we have the benefit of the nutrients in the carao, the oil, the carao, and the slippery elm.  I love stacking the superfoods together.
Thanks for the carao, we love it.

Deb's Suggestion to Mask Carao's Strong Taste and Smell

Hi Lloyd,
I just got my first carao today, and though I can tolerate the taste and smell I can see how it might be hard for some. So this got me thinking, and I realized it looks a lot like blackstrap molasses, which also has a strong taste and smell, though I do prefer it to the carao.

Anyway, I tried mixing carao with organic blackstrap molasses, and it took the taste (including the bitterness) and the smell away from the carao!

Just thought this idea might help someone else,  Deb Feb. 16 2008
