Uses for Sour Milk?

Question

Are there any baking uses for sour milk?

Answer 1

You can use Sour milk in any recipe that calls for buttermilk like cake, pancakes, waffles, biscuits, etc.

Answer 2

If the milk is unpasteurised you can make Crowdie (a soft Scottish Highland cheese similar to cottage cheese, but smoother).
Just gently heat the milk to blood heat and it should separate into curds and whey, then strain through muslin or a fine sieve. Squeeze out as much liquid as possible then mix the curds with some salt. A little cream can be added if wished.
Delicious spread on oatcakes or girdle(griddle) scones.
It doesn't work with pasteurised milk but it can be used to make the scones. The acidity of the milk gives a better rise to the scones.

Ginger Bread Boys (Molasses Cookies)
(“The Cookie Lady”, Hazel Soules)
1 cup sugar ½ teaspoon salt
1 cup molasses 1 cup buttermilk (or sour milk)
1 cup vegetable oil 1 Tablespoon baking soda
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon 6 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon ground ginger
Put sugar, salt, ginger and cinnamon in a large bowl, mix. Add the molasses and stir well. Add the oil and stir. Then stir in 2 or 3 cups flour (whatever you can stir in). Put the soda into the cup of buttermilk and stir; pour into the mixture and mix well. Add the other 3 cups of flour. Sprinkle flour on kneading board and scoop a small amount of dough onto it. Knead more flour into it and then roll out. Preheat oven to 350oF. Cut with cutter dipped in flour and place fairly close together on baking sheets. Bake for 15 minutes or until done. If using a larger cookie cutter, they will take longer to bake. The dough needs to be rolled thick enough to pick up design in cutter. Dough needs to be stiffer (more flour) in order to pick up cookies from kneading board.
