Powdered Milk, Cheese and Recipes

I am sorry about the gaps before the tables, I don't know how to get rid of them. In my preview it looks perfect but when I publish it has big gaps. If anyone know how to fix it. Please let me know.

Powdered Milk & Cheese

Nonfat dry milk/dairy 75 lbs. Per person
Nonfat dry milk (Instant and Non-Instant)
Dry Powdered /Cheese, Bottled Cheese
Rice Milk, Soy Milk or other milk substitutes

Powdered milk may be purchased in both instant and regular forms. There is no nutritional difference between the two forms and the storage life is equivalent. Buy “extra” grade “low heat” powder. It should have been dried using a “low heat spray process.” It should ideally also have been fortified with vitamins A and D.

Dry Milk should be stored in a tightly covered container and stored in a cool, dry and dark location up off the floor. Dry Milk must be rotated even if you package and store it correctly. Dry milk will store well at 40 degrees F. for 12-24 months. Dry milk will store longer when packed in vacuum or nitrogen.

Other dairy products which may be stored include: canned evaporated milk, canned baby formula, powdered baby formula, cream substitutes, cheese spread, brick cheese, powdered cheese, margarine, butter, powdered butter, dried eggs.

Powdered milk can be used in many ways to add extra nutrition to foods:












Ground MeatsUse ½ to ¾ cup instant nonfat milk to each pound of meat
Cooked CerealsBefore cooking mix an equal amount of instant nonfat dry mild with the cereal. Take powdered milk along on camping trips to add to cooked cereal or to use when making macaroni and cheese or pudding.
Mashed vegetables:6-8 T of instant nonfat dry milk may be beaten into each 2 cups of mashed cooked vegetables (such as potatoes, squash, sweet potatoes, or turnips)
Milk Shakes or DrinksAdd 2 T instant nonfat dry milk to each cup of fresh milk

Use Powdered milk in its dry form in making bread, meatballs, meat loves, cookies, etc. It may be used for making cake frosting by replacing part of the powdered sugar with powdered milk. (The non-instant works best for this purpose.)

Some hints for making powdered milk taste better are first of all to let it chill for several hours before drinking. You can mix half and half with whole milk to make your milk go further and lower the fat. You can also try adding 1 ½ tsp of sugar or 1 tsp of Vanilla to enhance the flavor.

Home Make Yogurt

Beat 2 ½ cups non-instant powdered milk (or4 1/3 cup instant) into 2 cups tepid water. Add 4 T. Previously prepared yogurt.

If you have a yogurt maker, follow the manufactures directions. If not, pour into 4 pint bottles and set into a deep pan filled with warm water (100 to 120 degrees). The water should cover the jars up to their necks. Keep warm for at least 3 hours and then check the thickness of the product. It may take longer, especially if your start was not too fresh. If the temperature is to high or to low, this well also make the milk slower in setting. When thick, refrigerate.

Yogurt may be flavored with fresh, canned dried or stained fruit. You may also use jams, honey and vanilla, maple syrup, molasses, Tang, etc. for flavoring. Any flavoring should always be added after the yogurt is set. When adding any flavoring to yogurt, stir lightly. The more yogurt is stirred, the thinner it becomes.
