Drinking milk in moderation can be healthy.
Try two percent milk instead, it sounds like a more close to home substitute.
Whole Milk
Yes it will tast like 1 percent milk
Yes, the flavor may be slightly less rich, but the recipe itself should turn out fine.
You would have like 2 1/2 percent milk. The percent is the amount of fat in the milk. 100 percent would be butter. You can not have more than 100 percent of anything. Whole milk in the U.S. contains a minimum of 3.25% butterfat. So if you combine one part whole milk with one part 1% milk, you will have at least 2.125% butterfat in the mix. [Add 3.25 + 1.00. Divide the answer by 2]
2% or whole milk would work just fine.
The percentage is a reference to the fat content of the milk. Whole milk contains usually between 3.25% and 4.0% fat, where as 2% obviously contains 2% fat. Also, in the US 2% milk generally will have more Vitamin A than whole milk. This is because during the fat reduction process, a lot of vitamin A is lost, so it is artificially added back into the milk.
There are three types of milk based on fat contents.Whole Milk (3% Milk): This type of milk must contain more than 3% of fats.Reduced-fat milk (2% Milk): Contains only 2% of fats.Low-fat milk (1% Milk): have 1% of fats in it.
For 1-2 year olds, they should drink whole milk because it is better for them and healthier for their bodies. Whole milk helps young children's brain develop.
Yes, it depends on what you're making, however because buttermilk is acidic it is generally used in recipes to control the leavening/rising process. A straight substitute of milk is less acidic and will result in overly fluffy pancakes, etc... You can sour regular milk by adding 1 T lemon juice to 1 c milk and let stand for about 5 minutes. You can also substitute plain yogurt. It depends on what you're making but, for baking, buttermilk can generally be subsituted for whole milk.
Mixing milk with 1% butterfat and light cream having 20% butterfat to get to whole milk with 3.4% butterfat. Mix 874g of 1% milk with 126g of light cream to get 1kg of 3.4% whole milk. The cream will settle on top of the milk (cream is lighter than milk) and will have to be mixed in thoroughly. This calculation can be done using a Pearson Square.
For baking purposes, you can substitute 1 cup of whole or 2% milk + about 2 teaspoons of vinegar (cider or white) for every cup of buttermilk called for in the recipe. It works best if the milk is not icy cold. Add the vinegar but don't stir. In a few minutes it will have clotted and is ready to pour in the batter.
