raw milk pick up went well.
turns out i know the person who's house the drop off point is. she never mentioned it in all the times we've talked.
first rule of the raw milk club is you don't talk about the raw milk club.
taste?
great. i've heard people say that it tastes like milk should taste. now i get it. it does. it's so fatty that it leaves a layer of sheen in your mouth. it is rich but not sweet, and it tastes like it comes from an animal. and it should. our food is becoming so removed from it's source that we forget from where it came. there's no confusion with raw milk.
so now what do we do with it? we still had some organic whole milk leftover so we finished that. and this morning we tore up some raw milk smoothies for breakfast. this is roughly what we put in them:
2 frozen bananas
(when they start to turn black we throw them in the freezer and then later use them in smoothies, eliminating the need for ice, which just waters the smoothie down)
1 1/2 cups raw milk
a kid-sized generous handful of fresh sprouts
(because the kids love to make the smoothies)
1-2 T raw honey
1-2 T wheat germ
1/4 cup whole milk plain yogurt
blend and chug.
psst-don't tell harper, i put cod liver oil her smoothie.
delicious, enjoyed while sitting on the kitchen counter and floor, because we couldn't make it to the table fast enough. first time i've added sprouts and that was so good.
other possible smoothie additions:
fresh greens
freshly ground flax seed
flax oil
coconut oil
cocoa powder
peanut butter
peaches, plums, nectarines
berries
the list is endless!
loving our beautiful friday morning.
