[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 385173, member: 1991"] Would it help, or hinder, to focus on flavour? Good, healthy, natural flavour (not artificial crud). Herbs, for example. Vanilla. I make curries from the basic spices, leaving out any 'heat'. The result is loaded with flavour but no burn. Anyone anting burn can add their own Tabasco. A home-simmered beef and vegetable curry has chunks of met so tender they fall apart, and even if all she can manage is the gravy, it has a lot of nourishment in it, plus loads of flavour. You can use the gravy maybe to get some steamed rice into her. We also cook poppadums in the microwave oven as an added treat for curry eaters, but they might be a bit scratchy for her throat. I find when I'm dieting hard, I focus on flavour a lot. It makes food a lot more enjoyable. I also find I quickly dislike the feel of any fat in the food I'm eating. Not just lumps, but any grease at any stage, it coats the inside of my mouth and feels yuk. Even drinking full-cream milk is a turn-off when I'm dieting. OK, she's not trying to diet (we hope) but she may have developed similar aversions especially if she already has sensory issues. Anyway, it's just one more idea. You seem to have the best handle on things at the moment, given her weight gain. Marg [/QUOTE]
