My family can never seem to estimate how much milk we\u2019ll consume in a week. One week, we run out in two days. The next, the extra jug sits in the fridge until it expires. But good news\u2014I recently explore a simple fix: you can freeze milk!<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

How to Freeze Milk Without Making a Mess<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Begin by discharging about one cup from a full plastic gallon. Milk spreads when it freezes. Without the extra space, your jug could burst and leave a frosty mess in your freezer.<\/p>\n

\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Best Ways to Store It<\/strong><\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Once you\u2019ve made room, you have two options:<\/p>\n

\n
\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
    \n
  • Freeze the whole jug, or<\/li>\n
  • Pour milk into ice cube trays for smaller recipe-ready portions.<\/li>\n
  • Important note: only freeze milk in plastic containers. Glass jars can snap from the extreme cold.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    How Long Does Frozen Milk Last?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

    You can safely keep frozen milk for up to three months.<\/p>\n

    \n
    \n
    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

    To thaw it:<\/strong><\/p>\n

    \n
    \n
    \n
    \n
    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
      \n
    • Store it in the fridge for 24 hours, or<\/li>\n
    • If you\u2019re in a rush, drown the container in cold water. It\u2019ll thaw in about 30 minutes.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      Why You\u2019ll Love This Trick<\/strong><\/h2>\n

      \"\"<\/p>\n

      <\/div>\n

      I had no idea you could freeze milk\u2014but now I do, I\u2019m spaced! This trick saves me from:<\/p>\n

      \n
      \n
      <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
        \n
      • Last-minute grocery runs<\/li>\n
      • Spitting expired milk down the drain<\/li>\n
      • Feeling guilty over wasted food<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

        It\u2019s also super useful in everyday situations:<\/strong><\/h2>\n
          \n
        • Stocking up during a sale? Freeze the extras.<\/li>\n
        • Heading out of town? Freeze what\u2019s left instead of tossing it.<\/li>\n
        • Just need a splash for coffee? Use a frozen cube.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

          Give It a Try!<\/strong>
          \n\"\"<\/h2>\n

          If your family\u2019s milk habits are as erratic as mine, freezing milk might just be your new favorite kitchen hack.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
