Does anybody have any suggestions for uses for sour milk?

I've seen some quickbread recipes that call for either sour cream or deliberately soured milk (milk mixed with a little vinegar and then warmed). Can I substitute naturally soured milk for these ingredients?

Thanks for any tips you might offer.

Commercial soured milk has the proper bacteria cultured into it, it's known to be safe. Milk that just went sour is likely OK to cook with BUT you can never be sure what put it over.

Make your own sour milk ( buttermilk) by adding a spoon or two of plain yogurt, kefir, or sour cream.
What's to do with it ? Sour milk pancakes, sour milk biscuits, corn bread, banana cake, fruit bread and much more.

I find that it makes a great drain opener. Just pour it on down the drain and you will be glad you did.

It also makes good pig feed.

You sure can. My grandmother who was a wonderul cook and had to make meals for no less than 10 people at a time when all the kids were home left nothing to waste including sour milk. She made all her bread both quick and yeast with sour milk.

I just keep on using it on my cereal until it's gone. There is so much sugar in even the so-called "unsweetened" cereals, that the milk just makes them tangy. Cereal is almost the only place I use milk, except in cooking/baking. But if I wanted to drink a glass of milk, and it was sour, I'd drink it anyway.

Corn bread and biscuit recipes. I also use it for fried chicken marinade.

Thanks, all! I've tried it in whole wheat quickbread; the result was edible but tasted just a little odd. Maybe the milk was a little too far gone. I'll try it in cornbread next.

Pancakes, that is what I use milk that is "sour" in, but milk never stays in my fridge long enough to be really "rotten", it just tastes off, smells off. So, waffles or pancakes for supper, can't tell at all.

I think there is a difference between milk that you intentionally sour and milk that has gone bad. Not sure, but that was always my train of thought.
