My mom use to mix powder milk with whole milk to make 2 gallons of milk from one gallon of whole milk.
I have done that when all the kids were still home, 7 kids. If the milk was made the night before and mixed with usually 2% milk, it was cold in the morning and no one ever knew. Even I would drink it. Same goes for just plain old p. Milk. Make it and refrigerate so it is cold! Makes it better every time.
My mother would do that as well
@@raydeneclark9340 what would be the ratio of the powdered milk with regular milk ?
So did my mom. Im not a milk drinker. She also put vanilla in it. But my kids liked powder milk
Wow never thought about this thank you for sharing
I bought two bags of Great Value Non-Fat Powdered Milk a couple of years ago. I never used them and they passed the Use By date 13 months ago.
After watching this video, I decided to be brave. I opened one of the old bags and made a gallon. Then I stuck it in the fridge for an hour. Then I took it out and added 1/3rd Cup of sugar and 3/4 Tablespoon of Vanilla Extract. Stirred it up and sampled a spoonful.
It is absolutely DELICIOUS!! It tastes exactly like melted vanilla ice cream. So, the next time I make a gallon of it I will only use 1/4 Cup of sugar and the 1/2 Tablespoon of vanilla extract.
Great info. Thank you. I don't drink milk so I do buy powdered milk to cook with. I put a small quantity in a paper lunch sack. Fold top over once. Put in vacuum seal bags and seal up. Keep in storage in my basement. This way I can repackage it into very small quantities that are usable for me. The brown paper bag keeps it a bit darker and keeps my vacuum sealer from sucking up powder. I have been doing this with powdered milk and flour for years. Works very well.
This is a no nonsense lady. She gets right to the point and explains why you do what you do. She has a great sense of humor.
Thank you
Alaska prepper recommended your channel! Can’t wait to scroll through your other videos! Thank you for sharing your knowledge!
Welcome!
She's the best and anyone she talks to or recommends. The only person I trust with my canny questions also.
You will not be disappointed that you clicked on this channel
You can use old socks ,and cut so you have a way to pull over the canning jar or any jar, and put the lid on and pull a sock over ,1.keep from clanging and keep light off jars..I learned this from Heidi at rain country homestead
I used to freeze canned milk in ice cube trays and add a cube to the powdered milk and that helped the taste. My sister freeze dried a can for me so I can add a bit of it to the powdered milk. Vanilla helps and cocoa mix is good. My mother in law mixed whole milk and powdered milk so it was less expensive and it really didn't taste bad when it was cold. She had 5 boys so needed to cut corners as much as possible,
That's a great idea!
Adding powdered coffee creamer helps the flavor a lot.I prefer the Nido powdered milk
Powdered milk mixed and refrigerated overnite was what was served in our household when I grew up in the 60’s. It was a thing, for some reason, even though my parents grew up on farms 😉 But so was instant tea, coffee, koolaid, margarine and lots of other not healthy things!
Use old black socks over jars to keep light out. Also protects from braking. Store out of light like all jared canned goods.
My mother used to make a mixture of Carnation non fat dry milk and whole milk in a pitcher. The other half of the gallon was used for cereal . We would put chocolate or strawberry Quik or
Ovaltine when we drank it. I used it to make tapioca pudding . Takes 2 cups so I make one whole milk and one powdered milk. I am a milk drinker at 69 . About 1/2 gallon a day . Three a week . What ever little bit is left on shopping day I use to make buttermilk.
A spoonful of sugar helps the powdered milk go down! Love your video
I keep powdered milk . it comes in handy for cooking when I unexpectedly run out of milk. I've recently started storing some evaporated milk also
Slip a brown bag over Glass jar for light protection
Store in canning jars
Place a old black sock over jars.works great.
BUT canning jars can't be stacked, right?
Nido is one of the best tasting I have ever had
We have powdered milk, and liquid boxed milk-you can get this from dollar trees. We call this “hurricane milk.” We live in a hurricane prone area, and we stock it year round. We live way out of town, and we use it on occasion for coffee, and the kids don’t mind it for cereal. It’s so good to have.
As a kid I remember my mom disguising instant milk. She would do half instant and half whole milk to make it last longer...yes we were poor but it worked and it kept milk on the table for the five of us kids. Still not a fan of it though but in a pinch I would use instant. Nice to know about the sugar and vanilla. Thanks🥰
Same with Mom half and half so we would drink it
Yes in the old days Powder milk was NASTY TASTING! YUCK . Now days i can't tell the difference from fresh whole milk, from the powder milk YUM 👍
I have 2 kinds of powdered milk, the nonfat instant milk that is Walmart brand, and Nido which is whole milk powder. The nonfat instant milk is more granular and I have found that running it through my Ninja Storm pulverizes it to a more powdery form and it's way easier to reconstitute. I don't buy it to drink but use it in pancake mix, cream of soup mixes, gravy mixes, etc. I have also used the nonfat version several years after the best buy date and there was no issues.
Great tip
Yep, that’s what I do...amazing how many dressings and gravies use powdered milk for a base.
I grew up drinkin powder milk. Mom used to "doctor it" dont kno what she done!!!! So i drink it still!!!!💞💞💞💞🐈🐈🐈🐈
I use it for emergency cooking ingredient. I vac seal in pint jars and I have made " Little pillow cases " with a tie slip the jar in it and put it on the shelf. My panty is cool and it stores well. I use a dark material that right now has cows on it My mother for awhile would buy a gallon of milk - pour 1/2 into another clean empty gallon container, then mix up 1 gallon of powered milk and put 1/2 in with the 1/2 of regular milk. We never knew till she got caught mixing it up. We never noticed a difference. Just saw 2 jugs of milk in the fridge.
If you do it the night before so it's very cold it works well.
We grew up on commodity powdered milk. Memories of lumps of dry milk plopping down into my bowl of cornflakes is enough to make me gag. I store the Nido brand dry milk for cooking but no situation could ever make me drink it.
Friday 5/28/2021 .. When we lived in Japan in the 60's all we had was Powdered Milk, Purchased in the commissary, we as Americans we not allowed to purchase food of any type at the Japanese commodity due to their lack of sanitation and inspection of meats and foods (at the time) so nothing but Powdered milk and powdered eggs for four years, Mom would add a few drops of vanilla and some times real sugar, refrigerate all night and it was great ...
I actually like powdered milk better than regular. I put it in a shake maker cup with the little mixing ball in it and add a few ice cubes and shake it up real good to make it good and cold.
That's a great idea!
I grew up drinking powdered milk. When I would make powdered milk when my kids were young, I would add whole milk. Half a gallon of each to make 1 gallon
That's what I did when my son was a teenager and would drink a gallon of milk every day; more if it was available.
Very much like this lady , very good consise information and no BS gets to the point
I love the info you provide, super helpful and usable info, Thank you!
You are very blessed to have a friend that gives you powdered milk! It’s very expensive even for Great Value at Walmart.
We take powdered milk with us on backpacking trips. Nido is powdered whole milk and tastes quite good. You can get it at Walmart in the Hispanic foods aisle.
My mom gave us kids evaporated milk for formula diluted as babies and with a little Karo syrup I grew up😀
A nutritionist caught me this. Taken a gallon of milk, pour half into a container, using the directions to make powdered milk liquid, pour the 2 quarts into the whole milk, shake well. Make the night before, so the milk will be cold in the morning. hint shake well before using.
Canning jars wrapped in foil or think dark clothe such as old towel or other fabric with zip tie to hold it on the top
Thank you for the info, you’re awesome.
Love you Sutton Daze! So generous with love🌾
I love Thrive brand long term food storage. We stored up with thrive several years back, I love the security it gives and it taste great.
I like to drink dry milk mix a gallon up and add. one can of evaporated milk , taste great to me..
Glass containers have worked for me. I don't like freezing milk, need freezer space for other things. I use old socks to put over jar to keep light out.
Great idea!!
Update ! Thank you so much for all your information it's greatly appreciated ❤️
Thank you for clear & quick explanations without yakking too much about this & that!
I grew up on powdered milk, I actually like it. I order it in 50lb bags from a restaurant supplier (28.5% milk fat) then rebag and vacuum seal into one gallon sizes.The longest
I have ever gone before using it was two years, it was still fine.
What supplier?
I am trying the same thing, their milk is delicious and adorable. I just hope that it will last 5-10 years.
Every time we had to live overseas we only had Powdered Milk not regular .. My mother always added vanilla and served it ice cold .. You make do with what you have
When my mom had my sister, she got WIC. Every so often they'd give her boxes of powdered milk. She'd mix half regular milk and half powdered milk to get us to drink it. I keep it on hand for baking and cooking. She always kept a box on hand for 'What If' or 'you never know'.
...and she does it again!! Solved my "what should I do about using this powdered milk"? problem! Thank you!!
I have never had powered milk so this will be a new experience. But I did join Thrive life! And that’s where I got mine and many other foods!!
Thank you for the tips!!
Love your channel.
You are so welcome!
You answered the question I've been wondering for awhile now.. repackaging canned of bags of Powdered Milk!
Thank you for sharing your talents and knowledge!! I appreciate you!!💖
I like the Nido Brand milk it tastes really good just mixing as recommended... Great video as Always leisa
Thank you 😋
I store Augason Farms Moo Milk. It is very yummie. Since I am the only one who really drinks milk once SHTF the fam is outta luck cause it is ALL MINE.
That stuff is just chemicals. I bought some looked at the ingredients and will barter it. Yuk.
@@texican5619 What chemicals? Nonfat dry milk, vitamin A palmitate, vitamin D3.
Vitamins are chemicals?
@@texican5619 I buy Organic Whole milk and it lists the farm it comes from and says nothing about chemicals in it. Also I mixed milk for 30 years when I had children at home. I don't know the reason why some people mix milk but I when my sister's family was stationed in France in the Army the Army recommended that that the families mix milk because the price of milk was so high in France. Of course It was only Nonfat powdered milk then.
I never have liked powdered milk but I have stored quite a bit. After watching your podcast I'm going to change a couple of them. Thank you.
My mom used to mix whole farm milk with the dry milk when I was a kid. It still had that dry milk flavor but was much better than without. I like the vanilla idea thank you.
I do not drink milk but store powdered milk to make a white sauce or yoghurt. Here in my adopted country you can only buy powdered milk in 'cardboard' tins. I did not realise that and lost quite a lot as it is humid here and even using a dehumidifier it did not last. Today I managed to get 2 for the price of 1 large cans so will vacuum pack it this afternoon.
Great tip on the sweetener and vanilla! I have been doing this for years with unsweetened almond milk, because that's usually more available and on sale.
Thank you. I love milk. As a child drank milk right out of the milk can at my uncle's cow barn. It was delicious. Still warm. Froth on top. Tasted like liguid whipped cream
in the 60's and 70's I used powdered milk for my children to drink. I mixed it in a blender and let it set in fridge overnight and they didn't know it wasn't regular milk
I can’t wait to try the sugar and/or vanilla idea!!! I cannot stand the taste of powdered milk. My mother tried getting me to drink it as a kid too... nope! Thanks for the awesome hack!!!
I store powdered milk for emergencies and use it in cooking. But I will try the vanilla and sugar trick to see if my family will drink it. Thank you for the tips!
Good Tuesday morning my NEWEST FRIEND!🤠 While we don't use powered milk, I do understand it's importance in an emergency situation. As a NEW(ISH) prepper...I really appreciate the 'recipe' that u shared. LUCRETIA
Make whole milk from powdered milk. I pressure can butter some of which is unsalted. Mix your powdered milk and take a portion and warm it. Add unsalted butter to taste and blend til the butter is suspended in the warm milk. Then add the buttered milk back to the rest of your powdered milk mix and cool. Note if too much butter has been used some will condense out as butter flecks. Good way to have whole milk on the shelf. Another option is Nestle Nido, but my experience is with only using for a few years.
I stock powdered milk to make yogurt and paneer (cottage) cheese. Works well for both.
Thank you so much! Powdered milk is not my favorite but if it gets to the point that that's all I have, ill love it!🙂
Thanks for the info.
I am an old time prepper for 30 years now. I have prepped everything including powered milk although we don't drink it ( we use it for my granddaughters bath so has very white skin and breaks out very easy) I have never had any problems with dates or best used by dates. I store in buckets jars bags anything and everything. Alot of new preppers will have you going nuts over storing preps. it's not that serious. Store as you like it will be ok.
Thanks for the powdered milk tips. I don't drink it often, but I enjoy the occasional bowl of cereal or oatmeal. 🤗
Thank you so much that was very helpful
I definitely want to try the sugar and vanilla trick. Thanks, Leisa!
Always keep it on hand for my cooking baking and making homemade yogurt
I add a date remove the pit and blend with powdered milk and water . I like the vanilla extract idea. ✅
I can rarely catch you live so my visit is later & just wanted to say thank you, I’m fairly well versed in prepsteading & enjoy hearing you teach in my similar knowledge & especially learning something new, thank you for your time pretty Lady
You are so welcome!
i use it always for cooking, i don't drink milk except on cereal but i will try the vanilla/sugar. thanks
My grandmother ALWAYS had powdered milk, and I always thought it tasted ok. Now that I'm... older (50!), I am trying to make it a priority to have powdered milk put away in my long term pantry. I can drink it as it is when mixed, but I'm really liking the idea of the sweetener and a little vanilla! I have some smaller packets of powdered milk that I bought in order to make some pancake mix, but I think tonight I'll use a packet to "dr it up" and try it! Thanks so much for the helpful ideas!
All good info Leisa. I use powdered milk for all my cooking and baking needs. I've switched to unsweetened almond milk for drinking. I never buy regular milk anymore! I've learned how to make my own almond milk if I had to.
I’ve never had powdered milk but I have bought some just in case! Haven’t used it yet.❤️
I love Powdered milk. I looking to store food and I like your content. So I’m following you for educational purposes of beating high food prices. Thank you
I don’t mind it so much just from bag n made up but I did mix it with regular milk to stretch it for kiddos 👶 n us. If needed to 😊 I’ve got some stored up so glad I did before all this crazy time. Price has jumped up very high. GODBLESS sweetie
Absolutely correct advice! I won’t drink milk period. Need it for recipies, or for coffee, even ranch dressing mix...a need to have on the shelf! Not bad for hot chocolate either. Or making oatmeal to add calories,etc. keep the info coming Leisa...you are on a roll!
I have a few cases of powdered nonfat milk from the Mormon store. It's all prepackaged in mylar and good for 20 years. I've tried it cold and it really tasted great.
I bought a Pump-n-Seal years ago..amazing product and affordable
What is that?
I was given dark, knit and ducking material. It sat on my shelf forever. I took it down and cut it to fit my jars and wrapped them up and put a rubber band on the neck of the jar, around the material. I can see the lid with contents and date written on it. Thx for video. I have milk on my shelf but don't drink it. I'm going to put sugar and coco right next to it! With directions
I agree in that the Thrive Life milk is great. Besides tasting really good, it's already sealed in cans for the long term. Just one of their many great items for long term storage or everyday use. 👍
Another great video, Yes, have milk on the shelf.
I don't drink milk, but use it in cereals and for baking, cooking etc. But, we have a freeze dryer and I have been storing whole milk for the future. Actually tastes pretty good when water is added back to it.
very relevant& useful info thank you
You're welcome
Fantastic tips on rehydrating powdered milk Leisa!
Thank you!
Thank you so much for the flavor suggestions!
Growing up mom shopped only 1 time a month- we had real milk for about a week then she’d start mixing in powdered milk to regular milk for another week or so and then we were down to powdered milk only😝.
our sugar intake was very limited so sugary cereal sure would’ve helped.
I have some in storage but now I feel better about getting more!
You rock! Thanks for always keeping us informed!!!🤗
You're most welcome
powdered milk can be jazzed up with chocolate shake or drink mix, make your own hot cocoa mix or cook and bake with it. I store powdered milk in prefilled cans and in mylar bags I filled myself
You are so helpful
Started using powdered milk this past year...got tired of wasting milk because it didn't get used in time. It works great in oatmeal and all other cooking/baking.
Thanks for sharing
Thank you for your VDO I just brought 3 kg powder milk.
My mom tried to get us to drink powdered milk when I was little, but it was awful! She put it in a milk container and stored it in the fridge. We were poor so she didn't buy the sweeten cereal..so me being a smart 7 yr old decided to add sugar to the entire gallon!! Haha!! Needless to say I got a red rump for that. I'm 56 now, so you had me laughing when you said to add sugar. 🤣
I am not a milk drinker, but I find a lot of recipes use it. so I keep some on hand in the form of powder. Thanks for the tips on how to keep it shelf stable longer.
You are so welcome!
My husband and I don't mind powdered milk. I do like your idea of adding a touch of sugar and a drop of vanilla to it. Thanks!
Hi Leisa, you know I always have a lot of powdered ,milk and wondered how I would store quite a bit. I appreciate your advice. I do like the Mylar bags and glass jars are good idea with oxygen absorbers I use it for baking and good to have on hand. It nice to see you and love just to listen to your words of wisdom. I’m so happy with neals pottery bowls. See you next time.👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️🌷🌷🌷😎😎😎😘
Glad it was helpful!
The taste of powdered milk never troubled that much, but good to know how to make it better. Somehow I knew your method was going to involve vanilla extract!
Have used half dry half whole. I've used the sugar and vanilla trick for years. I'm stocked with LDS milk, comes in mylar bags.
Sounds great!
great information, thank you very much.
I use a black thick plastic contractor / garbage bags in my bins to store glass jars with dry ingredients and dehydrated vegs.
I don't just drink a glass of milk...BUT it is important. My husband does drink milk. I use it on cereals, cooking, especially biscuits and gravy.
I have thrive stored. It is great to just mix a bit for a recipe. I also purchased NIDO full fat. It is great to make cream cheese.
i love your videos i feel the professionalism thank you S.D. BTW i just bought a Vacuum Sealer and looking for different ways to use the sealer for long term storage. Im thinking on ordering Powder Milk, i could also buy powdered milk in a box from my local grocery store and you already said get it out of the box and get it in Myler bags or Mason Jars. I may go that route.
Stick to mylar. 1gallon bags with pleated bottom.
I have mylar for the milk and flour. Things I keep in quart jars I store in the banker's boxes I buy at Walmart. They hold 12 quarts and you can stack 350 pounds in a stack of boxes. I cover the boxes with pretty contact paper so I can store them in a stack in the bedroom and they still look nice and the boxes keep out the light.
Great idea about the banker's boxes and contact paper!
That’s the best idea. I have lots of the new decorative hat boxes. I would think that would work the same?🙏❤️🙏❤️🙏❤️🙏❤️🙏❤️🙏❤️🙏❤️
@@cathyhumphries5870 I don't see why not as long as whatever you want to store fits.
