milk conversion

If you like the idea of using powdered milk regularly in your cooking, you'll probably need a conversion chart. I used to write the conversion amounts onto the paper labels of my #10 cans of milk. Unfortunately, I often threw away the can without remembering to transfer all of my math. So, my can would sit, unused, until I sat down and refigured the numbers. Now I keep a conversion chart on my fridge.

Here is a milk-math chart for you (and for me):

1 gallon milk = 2 & 2/3 c. powdered milk + 1 gallon water

1 quart milk = 2/3 c. powdered milk + 1 quart water

2 cups milk = 1/3 c. powdered milk + 2 cups water

1 cup milk = 3 T. powdered milk + 1 cup water

1/2 cup milk = 1 & 1/2 T powdered milk + 1/2 cup water

1/3 cup milk = 1 T powdered milk + 1/3 cup water

You may also want to print out this cute powdered milk conversion chart created by Crystal at Everyday Food Storage. You can hang this on your fridge or tape it to your can of powdered milk.

Note: Check your milk containers to compare conversions. Amounts to use actually vary by brand (and by non-instant vs. instant).
