my dad found his grandmothers hand written cook book and it has the same style of recipe's , $.02 of this and that and also she called out "sweet milk" which i am not sure of. it sure is cool to look back at the time period as to how things was cooked and what they ate during the time period. nothing went to waste.
Sweet Milk is as it comes from the cow, cream mixed, shaken, in. This being Sweet compared to Cultured Buttermilk or Sour Milk more commonly used in baking. Kids and adults alike, drank sweet milk while some of the older folks drank ice cold buttermilk. Definately an aquired taste but Buttermilk is pretty darn good with spicy foods...JJ
