Expired Milk Challenge 2010

Lately I have been planning on making cheese. So I went out and purchased the amount of milk I would need to make two batches, a Monterey Jack and a farmhouse cheddar. The Monterey Jack came to fruition (post to come soon), but the farmhouse cheddar did not. Thursday I looked in my fridge and noticed an unopened 4L of 1% that expired that day. Since I knew it would not last long enough for me to drink the whole thing I issued a challenge to myself. Use up the 4L in baking/whatever you can with ingredients you have around the house. The result of that challenge was the following:

  • Three batches of pudding (two vanilla one chocolate with eight pudding pops in the freezer)
  • Two loaves of cinnamon bread
  • Two loaves of nut bread
  • Two loaves of 100% whole wheat
  • One burn that hurts like the dickens



















All in all, the challenge was a success, but my freezer is now full, so I must be more diligent the next time I attempt cheese.

I still think that adopting a kitten would have helped...

Ice cream? (It would avoid the burns...)
