Whole milk can be consumed directly from the carton, chilled. In cooking, it is often used as a base for creamy sauces, like béchamel or Alfredo. It adds moisture and tenderness to baked goods such as cakes, muffins, and breads. It can also be blended into smoothies for a richer texture or used to make puddings and custards. Its fat content helps emulsify ingredients, leading to smoother results in many preparations.
