Dry Curd Cottage Cheese DCCC (SCD)

Friendship Farmer Cheese

An important ingredient for the Specific Carbohydrate Diet (SCD)

If you are on the SCD diet, DO NOT eat plain cottage cheese. It is DIFFERENT from "dry curd cottage cheese".

For more information on the SCD diet, check out a book called "Breaking the Vicious Cycle" by Elaine Gottschall

Just started SCD and your videos have been extremely helpful! Thank you so much! Luckily I found Friendship Farmer's Cheese first time out at Whole Foods!

Hi i got some cccd i think!! its polish and the ingredients are milk and starter culture no added salt. its just called curd cheese?? what do ye think?

[fernpixel]

@stevencr00k I'm not quite sure. Do you have the Breaking the Vicious cycle book? There's a short chapter on DCCC. You can also try searching on google for more info. I only found the two brands mentioned in this video, but there could be others. Check the labels with caution.

Suggestion: I can't find the dry curd anywhere so I started using 1 package Knox gelatin per 1 quart whole milk, then draining the whey through cheesecloth/seive for 6 hours.  It makes a perfect replacement for dry curd cottage cheese and....it's easy to find. :-)

I've heard of that before! I think it was mentioned on one of the forums but I've never tried it myself.

Hi, just wanted to let everybody know that this is actually the same thing as cottage cheese with the whey (liquid) drained out and removed. You can make your own (called Tvorog, it's a Russian curd cheese): pour 1/2 gallon milk plus 2 cups buttermilk into a pot, let sit in a warm place overnight. The next day, heat covered without stirring on the lowest setting on your stove for an hour. The curd will separate from the whey. Let drain in a cheesecloth overnight.

Thanks for this video! I just google the Lifeway Brand of the farmers cheese, and the label says 4g of carbs. Truly legal DCCC for the Specific Carbohydrate Diet should have 0g carbs. So, everyone, make sure to read your labels!
