What Can You Do With “Expired” or Sour Milk? Don’t Toss It Yet!
Before you pour that sour milk down the drain, consider this: it might still have plenty of useful purposes! Sour or expired milk is surprisingly versatile and can come in handy in various household tasks, gardening, and even cooking. Here are some clever ways to use it:
1. In the Kitchen
a. Make Pancakes or Waffles
Sour milk works like buttermilk in recipes, adding a slight tang and fluffiness to your favorite pancake or waffle batter. Simply substitute the milk in your recipe with the sour version.
b. Bake Moist Cakes and Muffins
Use expired milk to make cakes, muffins, or quick breads. Its acidity reacts with baking soda, helping the batter rise while keeping your baked goods soft and delicious.
c. Homemade Cheese
Turn that sour milk into homemade ricotta or paneer cheese. Heat the milk gently, add some lemon juice or vinegar, and watch as it curdles. Strain the curds, and you’ll have fresh, creamy cheese.
d. Tenderize Meat
Soaking meat in sour milk can help tenderize it. The acids in the milk break down proteins, resulting in a juicy and flavorful cut of meat.
