Zucchini Milk

Zucchini Milk DAIRY EQUIPMENT & IDEAS Dairy Equipment & Ideas 19-5-35 If you've ever been buried under mounds of zucchini from your garden and you've tried baked zucchini, fried zucchini, steamed zucchini, and zucchini casserole, don't despair. Now you can make milk out of it. Just peel the zucchini and cut it into small cubes. Big zucchini work great for this. Take out the seeds if they've become hard. Fill a blender about one third full of cubes and add a small amount of water. Run the blender on "liquify". In a few minutes, you'll end up with a thick, white milk. You can bake almost anything with this milk including biscuits, pancakes, bread pudding, etc. Yeast bread and rolls are particularly moist and delicious. Zucchini milk has no fat or cholesterol and offers a mere 5 calories per ounce but contributes vitamins A and C, iron, calcium, and part of the B complex - niacin, riboflavin, and thiamin. Another plus is that it can be frozen for use in winter. Backwoods Home Magazine, Ashland, Oregon
