How people cook with it

- Making creamy sauces
This milk can be used in many ways in the kitchen. It is excellent for drinking by the glass, especially when chilled. It works well as a base for smoothies, adding a smooth texture and a touch of richness. In baking, it contributes moisture and helps bind ingredients together in recipes like pancakes, muffins, and cakes. It can also be heated gently to create sauces or used to thin out soups and stews, adding a subtle creaminess without being too heavy.

How to keep the rest
After opening, keep the remaining milk refrigerated at all times. Ensure the carton is tightly sealed to maintain freshness and prevent spoilage. It is best to consume the milk within the recommended timeframe after opening, typically about a week, to enjoy its optimal taste and quality.
