Can you freeze cottage cheese?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Cottage cheese and other soft cheeses do not freeze well. If used in a recipe (like lasagne filling, cake) they hold up pretty well, but you may find them grainier than you like. Hard cheese freezes very well (make small 1/2 pound packages) but will be much crumblier when thawed out. Another answer:

Because cottage cheese contains some liquid, it can be frozen, but only kind of. The liquid will only form ice crystals in it.

Can you take diet drinks cottage cheese and deep fried KFC chicken in Atkins diet?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

(per Atkins induction instructions) Diet Drinks sparingly and only those sweetened with Splenda...consider each serving as 1g carbohydrate anyway. Those drinks sweetened with aspartme (Nutrasweet) have been shown to reduce the amount of weight lost. Cottage Cheese is fine, as long as it's not the low-fat, non-fat kind, these tend to have increased amounts of carbohydrates. Fried Chicken is RIGHT OUT as Monty Python would say...the carbohydrates present in the battered skin is in no way allowed during induction. Please understand that this is only during the induction period, during OWL and the maintenance levels of the program you can have as many carbs as you want as long as your weight loss doesn't decrease/stall or go the other way. Follow their recommendations and increase your carb intake slowly, i.e. raise it 5 to 10 grams per day for the next week. So induction says 20g or less per day and most of that from veggie carbs the green leafy kind, the following week after induction (after 14 days) raise your carb limit by 5 to 10 for a total of 25 to 30g per day. As long as you continue to lose weight you are good. The next week raise it yet again and so on. The minute you stall or go the other way scale back the carbohydrates. If you are still stalled go back on induction for a couple of days and rinse repeat the cycle again.

Can you use ricotta cheese as a cottage cheese substitute?

Asked by Wiki User

Sometimes, yes. But they do taste different and their texture is different so the resulting dish will be quite different. I'd experiment first and see if you like the result before you serve it to someone else.

Can you use cottage cheese instead of sour cream in a cake?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

My Answer: Well it depends on what you are making. I wouldn't make cottage cheese the main ingredient. It would probably taste bad if you put in an ingredient that wasn't on the list. I would probably prefer cream cheese since it is on the ingredient list. Go out and buy some if you don't have any. Don't subsitute any like other ingredient. Trust me, it will taste very bad. If you subsitute any other ingredient then it wouldn't taste of what you wanted to taste. I am a culinary professional so I know what you need for your answer. If you want to become a professional cook you have to practice to put in the right ingredients. Thank you.
