Keep Milk Fresh: Smart Storage Hacks for Every Kitchen 🥛

Milk goes bad fast if you don’t store it right. 🌟The key is to get it into the fridge as soon as possible—don’t let it sit out after shopping. Always keep milk on the main shelves, not the door, since the temperature is more stable there. Lids should be tight to prevent the milk from picking up odors from other foods. 🙅Never pour unused milk back into the bottle; that’s just asking for spoilage. Light exposure can break down nutrients, so keep milk in opaque containers or tucked away from direct light. If you buy in bulk or don’t use milk quickly, freezing is a solid option. Leave some space in the container for expansion, and always thaw in the fridge. Skim milk freezes best, and after thawing, a quick blend helps restore the texture. For shopping, always grab milk last and reach for the cartons at the back—they’re usually fresher. Rotate your stock so the oldest gets used first. UHT and canned milk need refrigeration after opening, and powdered milk should be kept dry and cool. These small steps make a big difference in reducing waste and keeping milk fresh longer. #Food knowledge #MilkStorage #KitchenTips #DairyCare #Food storage #Cooking
