Many of us love sweets. But I want the selected products to be not just tasty, but also healthy. Also important is the desire to maintain a slim figure. There is a wonderful way to solve the problem: “Miracle” curds. This delicacy can be purchased in almost every supermarket. Whether it really is an excellent alternative to cakes is discussed in the article.
Consumer Reviews
Girls often like these desserts. Many people are confused by the small volume of the treat. But this factor can be considered as exclusively positive. If you use “Miracle” curds in packages, it is much easier to maintain a slim figure than when making desserts yourself. After opening the curd, it is impossible to eat more than the quantity prescribed by the manufacturer.
You can find several types of these curd products on sale: strawberry, cherry, chocolate, raspberry, pear and others. Thus, it is not difficult to diversify your menu.
Useful components
“Miracle” curds contain quite expected components:
- Milk.
- Cream.
- Sugar.
- Water.
- Jam from the fruits indicated on the package.
- Leaven.
- Skimmed milk powder.
Now every consumer will pay attention to “Miracle” curds, the benefits of which are undeniable. There are few useful components in the delicacy, but in quantitative terms they are significantly superior to other components.
In addition, beautiful packaging looks quite attractive on store shelves. Therefore, consumers do not always pay attention to the composition when purchasing “Miracle” curds. The benefit or harm consumers experience after consumption depends on their personal priorities.
Harmful substances
As if all these components are beneficial for health. At the same time, the presence of stabilizers cannot be ignored:
- Acetylated distarch adipate.
- Gelatin.
- Hydroxypropylated distarch phosphate.
- Pectin.
The package also lists the following components:
- Flavor identical to natural.
- Natural dye (carmine).
- Acidity regulators (citric acid, sodium citrate).
Among modern food products, it is impossible to identify clearly useful or harmful products. Don't indulge yourself with illusions. It is clear that cottage cheese only brings benefits if you buy it from friends. It is also preferable to prepare desserts yourself.
If we are trying to save time, we choose between the benefits of food and the speed of preparation. Therefore, all available arguments should be weighed. When you need to quickly snack on something tasty without overeating, “Miracle” curds are the best option.
Positive properties of dessert
Consumers are always interested in how healthy the food they choose is. In this regard, one cannot have a clear opinion. The fact is that the life goals, metabolic characteristics, and energy consumption of each of us are significantly different. We choose food based on individual preferences. Taste preferences also differ.
It is impossible to purchase a product that is clearly useful. Preservatives, stabilizers and thickeners are added to curd products with a long shelf life. This is done to increase the shelf life and improve the presentation of the product. Curds “Miracle” are no exception.
Taste characteristics
It is tender and melts in your mouth. There is fruit filling at the bottom of the package. You can mix the treat before eating or eat each layer separately from the previous one.
When you want something sweet, but you need to do it without damaging your figure, you should prefer “Miracle” curds. The manufacturer tried to add an amazing delicacy to the lives of dessert lovers. Cream combined with jam, caramel or chocolate is an excellent addition to your diet. It gives extremely positive emotions.
The filler is characterized by naturalness. At the bottom of the package there is a beautiful jam with berry seeds, chocolate or other ingredients. The delicacy has a moderate sugar content and no cloying taste.
In addition, there is an interesting feature. If you mix the curd with the filling before eating, the dessert will be less sweet than if you eat each layer separately.
Nutrition for babies
It is better to limit children from eating such desserts. Babies are very susceptible to the effects of bright, colorful packaging. They ask parents to purchase a treat. That is, packaging that is attractive to a child is often just a marketing ploy. You can indulge in such sweets from time to time, but you should not do this regularly. In addition, the child often thinks that the dessert in a beautiful box is tastier than the one prepared by his mother. This should always be taken into account.
It is necessary that the children's diet consist of foods that do not contain additives. These can be desserts prepared independently. Thus, it is easy to control the quality of the products used. The taste characteristics will fully correspond to individual preferences.
Thus, “Miracle” curds, photos of which are attached to the article, are a wonderful addition to the diet. They help you indulge in sweets while consuming a minimum of calories. In any case, the treat should not be eaten by anyone on a weight loss diet, or by children. The dessert is ideal for anyone who wants to save time on preparing breakfast or an afternoon snack. In this case, it is preferable to choose “Miracle” curds, the benefit of which also lies in the ability to satisfy hunger in the workplace.
In general, I have a big sweet tooth, and during a long working day I can’t do without a snack of something sweet. Cookies, cakes, sweets - I just love them all, but you can burst! Therefore, I often buy myself cottage cheese and desserts; at my discretion, this is a lighter and healthier snack. Since I often go on diets, cottage cheese is the best way to enjoy something sweet and tasty without worrying about the extra calories, and in general, fermented milk products have always been considered very healthy for humans.
"Miracle" curd dessert.
Having tried a lot of curds, I chose the curd dessert “Miracle”.
Miracle curd can be purchased at any store or supermarket, and for those with a sweet tooth, it really is an excellent alternative to cakes and cookies.
And it’s almost impossible to walk along the counter without noticing the bright and well-designed packaging of Miracle curds; they immediately catch your eye.
The choice of Miracle curd flavors is simply amazing; you can eat something new every time. My favorite flavors are Kiwi-Banana and Peach-Pear, but there are also Strawberry, Cherry, Blueberry, Peach-Passion Fruit, Pineapple, Chocolate, Northern Berries, Exotic Fruits. So everyone can find their favorite delicacy.
I like that this curd dessert is very light: for example, in “Miracle” with Kiwi Banana flavor, the energy value is only 123 kcal, and its fat content is 4.2%, which is quite important for me, since I often like to sit on different diets.
Of course, at first, when I bought it, I was confused by its volume, it’s only 115 g. But on the other hand, this is good, you can treat yourself to something tasty and at the same time not overeat, maintaining a slim figure.
Curd miracle is a very tender dessert that melts in your mouth. It consists of two layers: the top layer is a very delicate, light, moderately sweet airy cottage cheese, the bottom layer consists of a fruit filler in which pieces of fruit are felt.
Sometimes I eat cottage cheese in layers, in which case the top layer is tender and moderately sweet, and the bottom layer has a more pronounced taste and sweetness, after which a sweet aftertaste remains in the mouth for a long time. And when I want a softer taste, I mix the curd with the filling, after which the result is a less sweet cottage cheese with pieces of fruit or berries.
Curd dessert "Miracle" will be a wonderful addition to your diet; you can always treat yourself to something sweet without going overboard with the calories.
When buying cottage cheese, always pay attention to the expiration date and production date. Marked on the top lid of the dessert. It is very important. Also remember that the curd is stored for no more than 45 days and at a certain temperature (from +2 to +6 degrees C). I prefer to buy a new dessert every time, and besides, in supermarkets, cottage cheese dessert is very well sorted, so it is always fresh there (I have never come across cottage cheese with an expired production date, and I always check it before buying).
Please note that in addition to useful components such as cottage cheese, cream, yogurt, sugar, the composition of curd dessert also includes various stabilizers and flavorings. Of course, sometimes I buy cottage cheese for my daughter, because it’s much better than any chips and crackers, but still, for a child, it’s better to make desserts yourself, which will not contain various additives, dyes and preservatives. I try to limit my child from eating such desserts. From time to time I spoil my little one with “Miracle” curd desserts, but I try not to do it regularly.
I am convinced that this is the recipe that many people have been looking forward to, right? And now it’s ready - homemade airy miracle curd! Anticipating the question “Is it really the same as a store-bought dessert?”, I will answer without cunning that it is about 90%. Homemade miracle cottage cheese turns out to be very tender, aromatic, moderately sweet and very tasty. Get ready: today I will write a lot and in detail, so be patient if you decide to repeat this dessert at home.
In general, I made the recipe a long time ago, but I still didn’t have the heavy cream to implement it. Having repeatedly studied the composition of the miracle curd, which is listed on the label, I took the basic ingredients as a basis and began to experiment. I prepared the dessert twice, and the first result was closer to the original, while the second turned out to be more like a delicate curd jelly.
A little more lyrics and let's move on to the ingredients, bear with us. You must understand that for this dessert it is important to use the freshest products, since the miracle curd will be ready only after 30-35 hours. It is during this time that some miraculous changes occur in it, thanks to which the curd mass becomes truly airy and porous. Don't rush things: push the dessert into the far corner of the refrigerator and forget about it for a while.
Well, now let’s take a closer look at the products that I used to make homemade miracle cottage cheese. Cottage cheese (we buy the freshest and not sour), I took 2% fat, although, in my opinion, absolutely any will do. Moreover, it does not matter whether it is pasty or dry - you will still need to carefully punch it with a blender in order to achieve a completely homogeneous mass without grains. True, depending on the fat content and consistency of the cottage cheese (more on this in steps), the amount of liquid required, that is, milk, will depend.
Next, the miracle curd contains yogurt - as I understand it, it’s natural. I replaced it with sour cream, which is medium fat (I used 20%), as well as milk (I used 1.7% fat). But for the recipe for this homemade dessert you definitely need fat cream, that is, one that is suitable for whipping - at least 30% (in my case 32%).
We keep the amount of sugar as a sweetener to a minimum - I added literally a heaping tablespoon of it. The fact is that the cream itself is quite sweet, so you don’t need a lot of sugar. Whether to add vanillin or not (it is not included in store-bought miracle curds) is up to you to decide.
And now the key ingredient is gelatin. The texture of the finished dessert directly depends on its quantity, so it was important to calculate the mass so that the miracle curd turns out to be airy. As a result, I came to the conclusion that 1 teaspoon without (!) a slide, that is, under a knife, would be ideal. By the way, read on the label how many different stabilizers are used in the preparation of our favorite miracle. And we will only have gelatin!
And finally, about the filler. Here you have the right to choose the fruit and berry supplement that you personally like best. I used homemade cherry jam (originally cherry-cherry), although I also really love the kiwi-banana combination. You can also experiment with options: blueberry, strawberry-strawberry, peach-pear, peach-passion fruit, pineapple and chocolate. The choice is yours!
Ingredients:
Cooking the dish step by step with photos:
So, to prepare homemade miracle cottage cheese, take cottage cheese, heavy cream, milk, sour cream, sugar, gelatin. If desired, add vanillin. Well, and any filler of your choice. Cottage cheese, sour cream and milk should be at room temperature.
Gelatin, as you know, comes in different forms: simple, instant, and slabs. Each type needs to be handled differently, so always read the instructions on the package. I used instant gelatin, which dissolves in hot liquid. In this case it is milk. I warmed 100 milliliters well (to about 90 degrees) and dissolved a level teaspoon (!) of gelatin in it, stirring constantly. Simple granular gelatin is usually soaked in cold liquid for 30-40 minutes, after which it is heated (in no case bringing to a boil) until completely dissolved.
Let's leave the gelatin alone (let it cool) and move on to the other ingredients. Place 250 grams of cottage cheese in a suitable bowl, add a heaping tablespoon of sugar, a tiny pinch of vanillin and 50 grams of sour cream (this is about 2 tablespoons).
Now we simply cannot do without an immersion blender, with which we can get a completely smooth curd mass. Punch everything until smooth. Then pour milk with gelatin into it (preferably through a sieve, so that crystals of undissolved gelatin are certainly not caught) and punch everything again. Of course, you can rub the cottage cheese through a sieve, but you still won’t get the same effect as with an immersion blender.
The result is a completely thin, homogeneous mass. In the photo, unfortunately, it is quite difficult to accurately show its consistency. Well, let's say, it turns out something like fatty fermented baked milk or low-fat sour cream. Or freshly prepared custard that has not yet had time to cool. Or condensed milk... It is neither liquid nor thick. If the curd mass turns out thick (due to the dryness of the curd), add a little more milk and beat everything again.
All that remains is to whip the heavy cream - I just forgot to take a step-by-step photo, sorry. But I think everyone already knows what whipped cream looks like... Whip 200 milliliters of chilled heavy cream until stiff and carefully fold it into the curd base, trying to maintain airiness and volume. Just remember that literally 5-7 seconds separate you from well-whipped cream to butter, so be careful not to overdo it.
Well, we have come to the finale - we will put the components of the dessert into dishes. These can be bowls, vases, glasses or jars - decide for yourself. Place cold fruit and berry filling on the bottom so that it takes up about a quarter of the volume of the entire dish. We try to do everything carefully so that the finished dessert is pleasing to the eye.
