Kitchen Hint of the Day!
October 27, 2020 at 6:00 AM | Posted in Kitchen Hints | Leave a commentTags: baking, Buttermilk, Cooking, Cooking Tips, Cottage Cheese, Food, Grilling, Kitchen Hints, Low Fat, Nonfat Yogurt, recipes, Skim Milk
Switch to low-fat dairy………….
Many dairy products used in cooking and baking are high in fat. You can lower the fat content without compromising taste.
Instead of whole milk or half-and-half, pour 1% or skim milk, evaporated skim milk, or nonfat half-and-half. Instead of sour cream, try low-fat or nonfat plain yogurt, buttermilk, or even low-fat cottage cheese (you may need to blend it first to make it smooth.)
To make a sauce that calls for cream or whole milk, use cornstarch and skim milk.
