The most useful and delicious dishes are obtained with fresh milk, although the preparation of melted and condensed milk, recipes of which are popular with chefs, allows you to preserve this product without losing its taste qualities. Dairy products, cheese, butter, sour cream are made from milk, porridges, soups, pastries and sweets are prepared.
Types of Milk
The dairy industry produces pasteurized and sterilized milk. It is believed that the pasteurized product is more useful because it preserves beneficial microorganisms.
During pasteurization, the fermentation process simply slows down, therefore, the shelf life of the product is extended to 36-38 hours.
Sterilized milk differs from pasteurized milk in that it is almost completely free of microorganisms. Its shelf life is six months. Sterilized milk is good to use with tea and cocoa. The same dishes are prepared from sterilized milk that can be prepared from pasteurized milk.
