DOUBLE MILK
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 said. Mrs. Fohn-Han
sen is the associate director for
home demonstration work of the
Alaska Extension Service.
June dairy month is a good
time to think of new ways to add
milk to almost any food.
Fluid milk is used in desserts,
soups, creamed vegetables and cas
serole dishes. Dry milk may be
added to the flour used in bis
cuits, cookies, cakes, bread and
other recipes.
Hot summer days call for
“Double Milk,” a suggestion of
the U. S. Department of Agricul
ture’s human nutrition research
branch. Add milk to milk and the
:a "double milk" . . ,„j e
the calcium, vitamins and minerals
for. good health.
Add four tablespoons dry milk
to 1 cup fluid milk, then beat with
a rotary beater, electric mixer or
shake in a tightly closed jar. The
result is one serving of "double
milk." For a change in flavor, add
a tablespoon molasses or one
eighth teaspoon maple flavoring
and one teaspoon sugar. To make
spice double milk, use one-eighth
teaspoon each of cinnamon and
nutmeg and one-half teaspoon su
gar.
