Make Low Fat Milk at Home
Milk is a good source of protein, calcium, vitamin B as well as high in fat. Milk has so many health benefits so if you’re overweight you don’t have to cut milk from your diet. Instead of using whole milk try using low-fat milk as the fat in whole milk is mostly saturated animal fat. The low-fat milk prepared at home presents all the goodness of the normal milk but is virtually fat-free.
Preparing low-fat milk at home is not a very difficult task. Low-fat milk is prepared by using skimmed milk powder which is easily available from almost all shops and grocery stores or you can use 99% fat-free milk. Switching to fat-free milk won’t compromise the nutritional value in your glass. Below is a simple way in which you can prepare low-fat milk at home without any fuss.
Things needed: 100gm skim milk and 1 liter water (5 cups)
Preparation:
- Pour the milk into a large pan and cook for about 9 minutes.
- When the cooking period is over pour the cooked milk into the same bowl used before and keep it aside for cooling.
- When it is cooled there will be a layer of fat formed on top, skim it off.
- Repeat this procedure at least two or three times to get almost fat free milk
