I can't believe what a difference powdered evaporated milk made.
Comments (47)Might be my fault Dan. I was temped to say something about digging up old threads just to be controversial but bit my tongue. ;) But I only threw in the "organic" on pest controls to distinguish them from synthetic pesticides because the milk advocates always come back with "it's better to use milk then to use chems". Also wanted to point out that it was raw milk - not available to most - Dixie was advocating. The bacterial count and types in raw is substantially different from that in pasteurized so pasteurized milk has even less potential value to plants than raw.

Comments (28)sally2- Not ALL powdered milk products "taste wretched". You just haven't experienced the ones that taste good. These are the brands we use and they are difficult to detect from regular milk - straight from the glass. We've done the taste tests with milk-lovers over the years, including my husband, and they never knew they were consuming "powdered milk" in anything it's been used in, including drinking it. Country Cream - an instant non-fat dry milk product http://www.grandmascountryfoods.com/ Morning Moo's - a non-instant, low-lactose, whey-based milk substitute available from Augason Farms (formerly Blue Chip Group) - http://www.augasonfarms.com/ I realize "taste" is subjective, but many people who would NEVER drink buttermilk wouldn't think anything contrary to adding it to chocolate cake or scones. There is more contributing to the flavors in a recipe besides powdered milk. Heat alters the sugars in milk, which will alter the milk flavor. Have you ever tasted raw flour? Nothing pleasant-tasting about that.... ;-) -Grainlady...See MoreGoat milk ? 'evaporated' milk from powdered milk?
Comments (7)If I buy THREE cans of evaporated goat's milk I will have enough for THREE loaves of bread, lol! I don't know if I will even like the bread. My freezer is full of bits and bobs of stuff I never end up using, but I hate to waste food. I guess I could use it for a cream soup. I don't even like cow's milk except in tea and coffee....See MoreRecipe Milk-Free Apple Cinnamon Scones
Comments (8)Just in case no one told you yet today, Grainlady, you are so appreciated! Since I know you’ll understand, ironically, I didn’t continue in the background section a possible soy allergy/intolerance that needs testing (mine:) I’m the one with the nut allergy too. There’s possible fructose intolerance with FODMAP diet exploration going on also:) On the positive side, there’s a high level of appreciation when we find something that works for everyone. Yes, the milk allergy is a game changer and has expanded my horizons. I make Sourdough biscuits for him (revised adding more flour) and am going to experiment trying it with shortening/butter flavoring instead of margarine based on your comments. As an aside, we're a family of runners. This young man will participate in the Boston half-marathon next weekend and can polish off a recipe of biscuits with bowls of minestrone like no other:) Interesting about the Silpat/non-stick foil for the cinnamon chips (read one poster in the comments asking about that but no response) I’m going to try some modifications now that I’ve made a batch per specifications. I’ve never purchased cinnamon chips and can’t make a comparison, but I will say these are very good and baked very well. I'd recommend giving it a whirl since you have a healthy supply of cinnamon! Grainlady said “I have addressed most of the food challenges you do, so I understand how rewarding it is to find something that fits the bill. :-) “ True words! Thanks for your sharing your exceptional insight -- it is truly appreciated, informative and encouraging....See MoreLars
