FloridaLisa Posted January 18, 2011 Share Posted January 18, 2011 Quiche or cream based soup? You could freeze the milk for cooking. It separates so it's not great for drinking but fine in later cooking. Lisa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jplain Posted January 18, 2011 Share Posted January 18, 2011 You could make paneer, yum! Google for instructions. I haven't made it in a long time, but I remember heating the milk, adding an acid, stirring gently to develop curds, and then draining the curds in cheesecloth until you get a semi-firm mass.

Carol in Cal. Posted January 18, 2011 Share Posted January 18, 2011 OH! Cheese! Google 'cheese queen' and you'll find this great website by Ricki somebody (Carroll?) who teaches everyday people how to make great cheese at home. It's not all that time-consuming to make things like farmer's cheese, queso, mozzerrella, or ricotta. She makes it easy. It's a great way to use up a lot of milk and the cheese is amazingly good. Also, if you add the whey to soups that you are diluting instead of water, you up the flavor and nutritional content a great deal. Whey would probably sub into gravies as well, although I have not tried that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jane Elliot Posted January 18, 2011 Share Posted January 18, 2011 Some cheeses are very, very simple to make and don't require a lot of equipment. Our favorites are 30-minute mozzarella and fromage blanc. http://www.cheesemaking.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MomOfOneFunOne Posted January 18, 2011 Share Posted January 18, 2011 potato soup is delicious, uses lots of milk, and is perfect for this time of year. It's also delish the day or two after if you make enough to put in the fridge to keep for lunches or something. Sorry, I've never tried to freeze it. Hot chocolate. Ice cream. I'm pretty sure that will freeze well. ;) If you have the cream, I made butter yesterday and it was whey simple and delicious. he he. and now we have a lot of butter milk for biscuits and corn bread. have cereal, oatmeal, or polenta for breakfast everyday. rice pudding. milk shake I think Cleopatra used to bathe in milk. You might like it. ;) don't bathe with asps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sun Posted January 18, 2011 Share Posted January 18, 2011 pudding! Puddings are primarily milk-based, so they're a good way to use up milk. I use a quart every time I make pudding for a family of 3, which gives us about two good-sized servings each. Cornstarch pudding recipes are particularly easy, but I've also found that the ones that call for egg are pretty easy as well.
