I found that it has an odd taste just eaten plain, but I only use it for desserts!. It's really good for making pudding and mousse etc!.

Such as these:

They taste great! Way too sweet for me, but if you just copy the ingredients, there you go, easy recipe for pudding!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Hi, I don't think you have to remove the water!.!.I think it's best to keep it in a seperate container after opening it too maybe!.!.I haven't used it for a while but I did use it in smoothies and it gave a good texture but you can't taste it all you taste is what you throw into smoothie with it!.!.!.IE:banana,pineapple chunks(frozen but you can thaw)!.!.also frozen but can thaw!.!.!.blueberries,strawberries&raspberr!.!.!. ya don't like seeds),frozen mango chunks,plain or your favorite flavored yogurt,milk,OJ !.!.!.etc etc!.!.!.yummy smoothies I say yummy!.!.!. : ] but I have never cooked with it!.!.!.!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

I refrigerate it!. Then when I want something cool to eat, I just spoon some of it into a bowl and pour maple syrup over it & eat like a pudding!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

it is good for smoothies and purees not for solid use as much because it falls apartWww@FoodAQ@Com
