What's up chefs,

So one of my coworker's kids has been in ROUGH shape the last couple months - couldn't keep anything down. After a ton of labs and testing they FINALLY figured out she has CSID, and they've got her diet narrowed down to foods she can actually stomach.

But, there's sucrose and maltose in like everything, so she's going to be super limited on what she can eat for the rest of her life.

So... I want to send her mom home from work with the best fucking dessert she's ever had, and as many recipes as I can get a hold of, especially comfort food kinds of dishes.

If you've got any that sound like a good match, please share!

Thanks all!

Do you know if she also struggles with lactose?

There's a table on this website that lists certain fruits as "recommended" for a disaccharide-free diet, which includes berries like blackberries, blueberries and loganberries. You could combine those with some freshly whipped double cream (although make sure it hasn't been sweetened): it's a simple but delicious dessert.

Do you know if she also struggles with lactose?

I'm not sure. Initially I thought no, but that website lists it as a no-go. It's a disaccharide made up of glucose and galactose, which should both be fine, so /shrug. I need to research CSID more - never heard of it until earlier today from the mom.

I was initially thinking something like mango sticky rice (fructose, lactose, starch?) could be a good option, but rice is listed as a no-go as well.

I should probably check with the mom before I do too much more.

Yeah most grains/cereals will unfortunately be off the menu.

I hope you find some great dessert ideas, and it's wonderful how you're supporting your coworker.
