Mix Sweet Milk and Vinegar to Make a Quick Alternative for Sour Milk
We've all been there - you're in the middle of baking and realize you're missing a key ingredient. In this case, it's sour milk. But don't worry, grandma has a trick up her sleeve that will save the day! To make sour milk when you don't have any on hand, you only need one cup of sweet milk and two tablespoons of vinegar. Mix the two and let it sit for a few minutes before adding it to your batter. The vinegar will react with the milk, creating that tangy flavor you need for your recipe. The best part about this trick is that it's simple and easy to do.

Simply wrap the cracked egg in waxed paper and drop it into your pot of boiling water. The waxed paper will act as a seal, preventing any leaks and ensuring that your egg is cooked to perfection. No more tossing out eggs at the first sign of a crack.
