Can expired milk be used to make steamed buns?

Many people like to buy some milk and keep it at home for emergency use, but milk is a substance that expires very easily, so most people do not have time to drink up the milk within its shelf life, resulting in the phenomenon of milk expiration. But it seems a pity to throw away expired milk, so some people wonder if they can add expired milk to steamed buns when making them?

Expired milk cannot be used to make steamed bread. It doesn't mean that you will get sick if you eat it (of course, that's possible), but yogurt and milk that has been aged for a long time contain lactic acid bacteria, which ferment to produce lactic acid, creating a sour taste. This species of bacteria is also used to make kimchi and vinegar. Yeast is used to make fermented pastries, and fermentation produces ethanol, which is alcohol. This strain of bacteria is used to make rice wine, white wine and wine. The result of using lactic acid bacteria to ferment pastries is that the dough becomes very sour

Uses of expired milk:

Mopping laminate flooring

Expired and sour milk should be diluted with clean water, then sprinkled on the laminate floor and wiped with a mop. The floor will be as bright as new. Because the taste of milk will become sour after it expires, and the lactic acid content in the milk increases. Lactic acid is a natural stain remover that can clean wooden floors. In addition, milk contains substances such as protein and fat, which can form a protective film on the wooden floor, which not only makes the wooden floor bright as new, but also protects the surface of the floor and reduces wear and scratches. The oil in the milk also helps the floor maintain its original color, making it less likely to fade, change color or deform.

When mopping the wooden floor, first pour the expired milk into the basin, then add twice the amount of water to dilute it, then wet the rag and wring it dry, then you can mop the floor. If the amount of expired milk is large, you can wipe it with milk once a week.

Polishing leather shoes

To remove dirt from the shoe surface, dip gauze in expired milk and apply it evenly on the shoe surface. After it dries, wipe it with a dry cloth. The shoe surface will be as bright as new. It also has another function of preventing the leather from cracking.

Removing Ink Stains from Clothes

Wash the clothes with clean water, then pour in expired sour milk and rub gently to remove the ink stains on the clothes.

Skin care

Expired milk will produce lactic acid, which can soften cuticles and has a moisturizing effect. Therefore, you can use expired milk to apply to your face, wash your face, and moisturize your skin. If it is facial care, you can use it directly on your face. If you are worried about allergies, you can also do a skin test first. If it is a full body care, you can first apply milk all over the body for 5 to 10 minutes, and then take a bath. It has a good moisturizing effect. But it must be noted that the milk can only be one that has just expired and has not deteriorated.

Watering the Flowers

If the expired milk has a noticeable sour smell, you can use it to water the flowers. You can dig a small hole in the middle of the flower soil and bury the milk in it, so that there will be no unpleasant smell. It should be noted that the milk should not be used too much and it can be used for the second time only after about a month.
