Taste & Role
🍯 Sweet
It serves as a cooling base for chilled desserts, puddings, and beverages, and is sometimes poured hot-temperature-sensitive custards to help them set. Its fat and protein content gives body and richness to drinks and desserts alike.
What it is
Cold milk refers to chilled cow's milk, typically whole milk, used in Chinese home kitchens and desserts. It appears in classics like double-skin milk pudding and ginger milk curd, as well as in chilled drinks. In recipes it simply means milk straight from the refrigerator rather than room-temperature or warmed milk.
