|  | 20 uses for...
« Thread Started on Jan 6, 2004, 12:55pm » | |
This is a thread where you tell us about something reusable, like old tires, boxes, etc., and what creative things you can do with it.
You aren't limited to 20 things you can do with it, but try to come up with at least that many uses.
20 uses for extra milk from a homestead cow
1. Invisible ink. Kids can write messages with it and hold it over a lightbulb or other heat source to see what is written. My brother and I used to make messages with milk when we'd play "spy." Lemon juice works, too.
2. Clotted cream. Warm over the stove at a low temperature and skim.
3. Whipped cream. Take the cream off the top and whip it.
4. Butter. Churn the cream in a jar by shaking it until it separates. Pour off the buttermilk. Wash the butter and form into pats.
5. Buttermilk. Made from making butter.
6. Feed piglets, calves, goatlings, chicks.
7. Milk paint. I'll post a recipe for y'all.
8. Ice cream.
9. Meringue. Somebody please post the recipe? I've never made it.
10. Yogurt.
11. Cottage cheese.
12. Hard Cheese.
13. Milk soap.
14. Candies.
16. Dry milk.
17. Sour cream.
18. Custard
19. Egg nog
20. Milk bath.
