What can you make with Goat’s Milk?


I am often asked, What can you make with Goat’s Milk besides soap and lotion? Well, almost anything that you would make with regular cow’s milk can be made with goat’s milk: , yogurt, ice cream, butter, etc. You can also add it in liquid or powdered form to recipes for everything to fudge to soap to skin cream!

After several people asked us this question, I began to search the internet. We scoured the local stores — country stores, farm markets, etc. We picked the brains of keepers. We found lots of , and tons of other stuff. You can make , ricotta , cottage , cultures for , goat’s milk fudge, and more. We’ve even found a few recipes of other keepers online. Most goat dairys will sell , butter, and several varieties of .

You can substitute in any of your favorite recipes that call for milk. If you are interested in making your own , ice cream or yogurt, be sure to see a few of our recipes below or you can do a google search for your own.
Like most milk products, can be frozen. Canned or reconstituted should be frozen in plastic or glass containers allowing enough room at the top for expansion. It is recommended that you thaw your frozen milk in the refrigerator and use it within seven (7) days after being defrosted. To maintain good flavor, do not freeze for more than two months. Butter may be frozen for 6 months. We do not recommend freezing quality . (Don’t freeze cow’s milk either; if you’ve tried it, then you know why they say not to freeze it!)

Here are some favorite recipes, but we are always looking for more delicious ways to serve . Please feel free to send us your ’s favorite recipes!

These dishes are for all lovers and may call for ingredients such as eggs, nuts, or cow butter and , to which some people may be sensitive. Adjust recipes by substituting egg replacers, margarine or as necessary.

Remember, you can substitute in any of your favorite recipes that call for milk!

Simple Soft : This is an easy recipe that only requires 1/2 gallon , the strained juice of 2 medium lemons, a thermometer capable of the 180-200°F range, some “cheesecloth” (many cotton cloths will work for straining), and some coarse salt (kosher or sea salt). (This recipe will not work well with ).

*
Heat milk on medium heat (in a stainless steel pot) to 185°F
*
Remove from heat and stir in the lemon juice
*
Stir for several minutes until milk has curdled
*
Add 1/2 tablespoon of coarse salt (optional)
*
Pour milk through cheesecloth
*
Wrap curds in cheesecloth and hang (using a rubber band works well) in the refrigerator to drain
*
Drain for 4-8 hours, depending on how dry you want the curds
*
Scrape curds off cloth into bowl and stir.

That’s all there is to it! Use on toast, in salads, with pancakes – whatever you wish. Experiment using herbs (added at the end when you stir the ). For larger curds, heat the milk well into the 190′s before curdling. Experiment with curdling and drying time to get the that meets your needs.
Cajeta (Mexican Caramel Candy)
3 quarts
2 tablespoons cornstarch
3 cups sugar
¼ teaspoon baking soda
Dissolve baking soda and cornstarch into 1 cup milk. Stir well to dissolve any lumps. Add rest of milk and add sugar. Bring mixture to boil, stirring constantly while cooking. Cook until the mixture is thick and looks like caramel sauce. Pour into jars, cool, and refrigerate. This makes a great topping for ice cream and makes a delicious apple dip!
Fudge
3 cups sugar
2/3 cup
3/4 cup margarine
6 oz. chocolate chips
7 oz. marshmallow creme
1 tsp. vanilla flavoring
Combine sugar, milk and margarine in heavy quart sauce pan. Stirring constantly, bring to full rolling boil. Reduce heat to medium and continue boiling five minutes. Remove from heat and stir in chocolate chips until melted. Add marshmallow creme and vanilla, beating until well-blended. Pour into greased 9 X 13 pan. Cool at room . You can also add nuts, if you wish. Enjoy!!!

    There are certainly a lot of details like that to take into consideration. That is a great point to bring up. I offer the thoughts above as general inspiration but clearly there are questions like the one you bring up where the most important thing will be working in honest good faith. I don?t know if best practices have emerged around things like that, but I am sure that your job is clearly identified as a fair game.
