Soured milk pancakes, yogurt should be fine just sniff and taste and same with salami but to be safe fry it like bacon and have with eggs.

Fried up with bacon is a great idea thanks!

haha - I actually meant instead of bacon , but as we all know everything tastes better with bacon!

Not at all @Cherryfudge I don't know too much about yoghurt except it's already fermented so I don't trust the used by date. That's all welcome information!

I think I might chuck the sour milk as I can't stand the smell of off milk it makes me gag, literally. I have to get my husband to smell milk if I have any inkling it's on the turn. But I was hoping maybe I could make cheese? 

Cherryfudge

I really don't know about the cheese (I've made soft cheese with short dated milk but not sour milk), so I Googled 'use of sour milk' and there are lots of things you - or maybe your husband - can make with it. 

Let us know if you try it!

P.S. I fancy some fried salami now!

Add salami (after frying off) to pasta sauce?

Yogurt will be fine

Only thing other than pancakes I can thunk of for millk is scones?

I tried cottage cheese, there was about a liter of milk and it made a tiny tiny amount and the leftover still looked like milk but not sour smelling. Think I'll make some pancakes now with it!

That's interesting - I wonder what happened to the smell?! It's nice when you can take something that seemed at the end of its usefulness and turn it into good food again.

Sour milk : make soda bread or soda farls.

Soda bread : 500mls soured milk, 1 teaspoon of bicarbonate of soda. 600 g of flour. (Either self raising, plain or mixed)

Mix it all together, form it into a stickyish dough, add a little flour to the outside and form into a round.  Cut a cross into the top across the whole loaf. 

Bake for 10 mins at 200 and about 20 mins at 180.

Buttermilk does make a better taste in my opinion but sour milk was what my late mother in law used.

You can add in black treacle, into the milk (less milk) or dried fruit is also really nice.


Soda farls are much the same recipe, but instead of baking they get griddle on the hob.

Milk on the turn makes very good scones.

Thanks for those ideas. Any idea if you can taste or smell the sour milk in the bead or scones?
