In our pantry today there is milk.
Of cows, for example, France is the world’s 7th largest producer. Of goats why not France is 5th in the world ranking. We are less strong in sheep or buffalo, and completely useless in yak milk. That said, there are few yaks in France… In any case, for 9,000 years that human beings have been drinking milk, they drink that of available animals. Cow here, Yak elsewhere. I could have told you about donkey’s milk too, but we use it more in cosmetics. The legend says that Cleopatra bathes in donkey’s milk to have a good complexion. .
divine milk
In any case, if you like milk, you are not alone. He was even considered divine. Among the Greeks, the goddess Amalthea, a goat, fed Zeus the king of the gods when he was a child. Among the Vikings, it was the cow Audhumla who fed Ymir the first living being. For their part, some Hindus say that the world was born of milk.
Consume milk
You can of course drink pure milk, whole or semi-skimmed, or even light to digest better, especially when you are an adult. In Brittany, we drink milk butter, in other words lean milk from the churn in which we make the butter. We find milk in many foods, it is from it that cream is born without which the Normans would be in depression, butter and cheese of course. Milk is also found in many desserts such as pancakes, flans, eggs pudding or rice pudding, delicious with a hint of cinnamon.
Healthy milk
Milk is said to be rich in calcium, to prevent osteoporosis and to be a very good source of protein. Anyway, as Rosa Lewis said “you have to put your heart into the kitchen”. You can add milk too.
