How to Freeze Milk

How to Freeze Milk

Many of us are fortunate to live in Arizona – and score very inexpensive milk almost weekly.

While other areas of the country pay upwards of $4 – $5 per gallon, we can usually get away with paying $2 or less – which is an unbelievable price.

One way to save money the weeks that milk is not on sale is to freeze gallons – there are a few steps you can take to do this.. you’ll find that not only does the milk thaw out just fine, it’ll save you from paying the non-sales price in a pinch. I have 3 gallons of milk in my chest freezer right now..

Leave room for the milk to expand.  Pour out 1/2 – 1 cup of milk to leave a few inches of space – milk expands.. so you need to give it room to do so.

Date the container.  Take a permanent marker and label your milk container with the date – and, the number of days remaining before it expires (if your milk was purchased on 9/1 & the expiration was 9/14, and you freeze it on 9/5, write “Frozen – 9/5.  Expires 9/14.”

Put the milk in the freezer. It’ll take up to 24 hours to freeze… I usually set mine upright. If you don’t have space for the gallons, break down into smaller containers.

Store it for No More than 6-8 Weeks.  I would not recommend leaving it in there  more than 2 months – it may also inherit the flavors/odors of other items so make sure your other items have a lid or are in a container.

Thaw it in the Fridge. This will take 1-3 days to thaw – you should never leave it on the counter directly – If you need it quicker, use a sink full of cold water – it may take a few hours versus 1-3 days.

Once thawed, use in 5-7 days.  Shake up the gallon a bit if need be.

You can also freeze smaller portions in an ice cube tray, too… pop out and put in a Hefty OneZip.
