Farmdale Lactose Free Full Cream Long Life Milk
What it is
This is a full cream milk that has undergone a process to remove lactose, making it suitable for individuals who are lactose intolerant. It is also long-life, meaning it has been UHT (ultra-high temperature) treated and aseptically packaged to remain shelf-stable for an extended period without refrigeration until opened. This ensures freshness and convenience for consumers.
How people cook with it
This milk is a versatile ingredient that can be used in a wide variety of culinary applications, both in cooking and for beverages.
- Pouring over cereal
- Adding to coffee or tea
- Baking cakes and cookies
- Making creamy sauces
Before opening, this milk does not require refrigeration and can be stored at room temperature. Once opened, it should be refrigerated and consumed within a few days, similar to fresh milk. It can be used in any recipe that calls for regular milk, providing the same rich flavor and texture without the lactose. It blends smoothly into hot and cold beverages and bakes well, contributing moisture and richness to baked goods.
How it differs from similar foods
Unlike regular full cream milk, this product has had its lactose content significantly reduced through an enzymatic process. This makes it easier to digest for those sensitive to lactose. Its long-life aspect also differentiates it from fresh milk, offering a longer shelf life before opening.
Who it is for
This milk is ideal for households that include individuals with lactose intolerance or those who prefer to keep a shelf-stable milk option on hand.
How to keep the rest
Store unopened cartons in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Once opened, refrigerate the carton and consume within 3 to 5 days to maintain optimal freshness and quality. Ensure the cap is tightly sealed after each use.
