Texture note — IDDSI Level 2

Mildly-thick Level 2. Add milk for a thinner Level 1.

Why this works at IDDSI Level 2

Level 2 is mildly-thick, the consistency you can drink from a cup but that takes effort to pull through a straw. It moves slowly enough to give a swollen or numb mouth time to organise a swallow, which is why so many strained soups and blended drinks sit at this level.

At 1 servings this recipe delivers 10g of protein and 220 kcal per serving in about 5 min — worth knowing because protein intake, not calories alone, is what limits soft-tissue healing when chewing is restricted. Move up a stage on your surgeon's or speech-language pathologist's timeline rather than by how you feel on a given day: texture that is too advanced is the most common cause of pain, wound irritation and choking risk in the first weeks.

See it made, or buy it nearby

Texture is hard to judge from written steps alone. Watching someone make it is often the quickest way to see how smooth “smooth” actually needs to be — and on the days cooking is too much, finding somewhere nearby that already makes it is a reasonable substitute.

Medical disclaimer. Jaw Surgery Diet is patient education, not medical advice, and it does not create a doctor–patient relationship. Texture stages here follow the IDDSI framework, but the right stage for you is the one your own surgeon, speech-language pathologist or dietitian has set. If you are unsure whether a texture is safe for you — or if you cough, choke or feel food catching when you swallow — stop and contact your care team.
