Can you freeze dairy? At Miller’s, we get this question often. The short answer is, yes, you can freeze dairy. I mean, you CAN freeze anything really. But, the question is, SHOULD you?
If you’re a cheese eater, there’s an easy way to save 2.6 hours per year! All you need to do is buy shredded cheese instead of shredding it yourself. Don’t get me wrong. I don’t mind a little elbow grease, especially when cooking. But, my hold up with shredded cheese has always been the options available.
Milk is sadly one of the most common food allergies in the US. It’s estimated that about 2.5% of children under 3 and 1-2% of adults are allergic to milk. Wow! Humans have been consuming milk for 6,000 years. Yet, the surge in milk allergies didn’t start until the past few decades. What’s going on? In my opinion, the problem is not simply “milk”... because all milk is not created equal. I’ve said it before, it’s the HOW not the COW.
Miller’s Bio Farm prides itself in producing the highest quality products possible. And, this is especially true for our decadent nutrient-dense all-natural A2/A2 butter. We get a good amount of feedback about our butter. This is mostly because customers expect something similar to store bought, and our butter is starkly different. It’s even a bit different from other farms’ all natural butters. We’ve done a lot of pondering and experimenting, trying to figure out what makes our butter thicker and more flavorful than most. Here’s what we’ve come to believe.
Everyone’s gut is different. And, I’m not talking about what we can see. Rather, I’m talking about what we can’t see - the hundred trillion microorganisms that make our digestion (and more) happen. For reasons 100% proven but not 100% understood (as is too common in nature), the strains of bacteria in yogurt increase your body’s ability to digest complex carbohydrates!
The farm staff and myself recently sampled over 20 different types of raw goat cheese… and a goat’s milk caramel. Oh my, they are all so yummy. Our favorites are now available in the store! I also went a little deeper and interviewed Amos Miller from Misty Creek Goat Dairy.
Raw milk is one of the most misunderstood foods. Is it safe? Should I pasteurize it? How do I store it? Let’s see if I can help build your confidence, no matter where you are in your raw milk journey.
Cheese is one of those unfortunately vilified foods that causes hesitation for some. Let’s be clear. I am NOT talking about Velveeta or any cheese that has ingredients other than milk, culture, and real salt (and maybe some natural herbs or spices or wood smoke). I have some great news - real old fashioned raw cheese is excellent for your health! You can be proud and healthy eating it daily. There are so many reasons why. So many that I’ll keep each sharp and to the point.
It seems that there’s a lot of confusion and even misinformation out there about A2 milk. I’m hoping to bring some light to the topic. How can you be absolutely certain the milk is 100% A2? It’s NOT the breed of the cow. It’s NOT the fat content. It’s NOT whether it’s raw or homogenized. It’s NOT the nutritional content. It’s NOT what the cow is fed. It’s NOT how a cow lives.
This year, we started getting the same question from a bunch of our awesome customers. It goes something like this, “I’m vegetarian. Can you make A2 cheese with vegetable rennet?” Of course, I relay all feedback to farmer Aaron. So, he started looking into it. We went down a rabbit hole of knowledge on this one. It turns out, there’s good reasons we use beef rennet.
