Taste & Role

🍯 Sweet

Adds richness, moisture, and tenderness to doughs, batters, custards, and braises. It is the base for dairy-based Chinese desserts and helps mellow and round out savory sauces and marinades.

What it is

Whole milk is cow's milk that retains its full natural fat content, typically around 3.25% butterfat. The organic version comes from cows raised without synthetic hormones or antibiotics. In Chinese kitchens it appears in both everyday cooking and classic desserts like steamed milk custard and fried milk.
