Equipment

  • 1 Refrigerator

Ingredients & Supplies

  • 1 Quart Milk

Instructions 

  • Only buy as much as you need for the week.
  • Do not let it sit in the car for long. Use a cooler bag to help keep it fresh.
  • Keep the container closed at all times. If you’re baking, it’s easy to open it and leave it sitting there. But the three steps to remember are open, pour, and close.
  • Do not let it sit out for longer than you need it. Get it back to chilling right away.
  • Store in the fridge near the back on a lower shelf. If you are storing meat on the bottom shelf, then store your milk one shelf above to help prevent cross-contamination.
  • Always toss out spoiled milk or when you’re unsure if it's still good.
  • Enjoy fresh milk in all your recipes, cereals, or on its own.
