Milk 3.2%

Description

Milk 3.2% has a creamy, slightly sweet taste and a smooth, white consistency with a noticeable but not overwhelming fat content, which provides a fuller profile than skimmed varieties. It is good for drinking cold as well as for frothing for coffee. It is a valuable source of high-quality protein, calcium, B vitamins (especially B2 and B12), and phosphorus, supporting bone health, muscle recovery, and a feeling of fullness; however, it contains saturated fats, so it is advisable to consume it in moderation as part of a balanced diet. In the kitchen, milk 3.2% is versatile: for cereals, smoothies, sauces, cream soups, puddings, baking, and homemade cheeses. Store in the refrigerator at a temperature of 0–4°C, tightly closed, use within 3–5 days after opening, and do not freeze to avoid compromising the texture.
