Milk-Miracle
Food With
About 100 Nutrients
One hundred in one - that is
milk, the miracle food with
about 100 nutrients. Calcium,
minerals, vitamins, sugars and
protein elements make milk a
food bargain, Mrs. Lydia Fohn
Hansen, associate director for
home demonstration work in the
Alaska Extension Service said
this week.
June dairy month is a good
time to think of new ways to add
milk to your family's diet, she
said. Drinking milk is the easi
est way to get your daily needs,
but Mrs. Homemaker may add
milk to almost any food.
Fluid milk is used in desserts,
soups, creamed vegetables and
casserole dishes. Dry milk may
be added to the flour used in
biscuits, cookies, cakes, bread,
and other recipes.
Hot summer days call for
“double milk”, a suggestion of
the U. S. Department of Agri
culture’s human nutrition re
search branch. Add milk to milk
and the result is “double milk"
—double the calcium, vitamins
and minerals for good health.
Add four tablespoons dry milk
to one cup fluid milk, then beat
with a rotary beater, the Depart
ment suggested.
