Powdered Milk

Drinkable Powdered Milk

1 gallon water + 3cups of non-instant powdered milk = 1 gallon milk
1 quart water + 3/4c non-instant powdered milk = 1 quart Milk
1 cup water + 3TBSP non-instant powdered milk = 1 cup milk

Mix in the dry milk a little at a time until well blended. Use a whisk to mix which adds air. You can also pour the milk through a fine mesh strainer to get any remaining lumps out.

Options to improve the taste of powdered milk
• Use 1/2 the amount of TABLE CREAM as you would dry milk
• 1/2 tsp vanilla and sugar
• Mix with fresh milk (this is good to help get use to it, gradually mix less fresh with powdered milk)

Brother Taylor’s dill pickles taught by Brother Thomas

First, sanitize all of the jars and lids you are going to use

Boil the following:
• 1 cup pickling salt
• 1 gallon water
• 1 quart white vinegar

Put the following in each quarter jar:
• 1 clove garlic
• 1/4 tsp alum
• dill (not powdered)
• cucumbers

After you have the jars filled and the water boiling, pour the salt/vinegar water into the jars until the water is near the top of the jar. Put the lid on the jar.
After that, have another pot of water boiling, with just water in it. I put the jar in the boiling water and leave it in there for maybe 15 minutes. Then take it out and leave it on the counter. I think that last step, of putting it in boiling water, helps to ensure that it actually does seal. Jars will start to seal a couple of hours later (you'll hear the lids pop as they are sealing).

In 3-6 months they will be ready to eat.
