Instant non-fat dry milk

==About instant non-fat dry milk==
Instant non-fat dry milk is made by removing water from pasteurized skim milk. It contains no added preservatives.
== Storage ==
=== Unopened Milk ===
Store non-fat dry milk off the floor in a cool, dry place.
=== Opened Milk ===
Store opened, non-fat, dry milk in a tightly covered container. When exposed to the air and moisture, then it becomes lumpy and the flavor changes.
Because the milk has been treated with a steam process to create large, porous, free-flowing particles, it mixes readily in water. After mixing with water, cover milk and refrigerate. Handle and treat the same as fresh fluid milk. Use within 3 to 5 days.
 
== Uses&Tips ==
Use reconstituted non-fat dry milk in place of fresh milk in recipes such as breads, cakes, soups, gravies, sauces, mashed potatoes, and custards. It is also suitable to use as a beverage. Try adding a tablespoon of non-fat dry milk to smoothies for a creamy treat with added protein.
