Powdered milk, also known as dried milk, is made by evaporating moisture from pasteurized milk, resulting in a shelf-stable product. This versatile ingredient is typically crafted from cow’s milk and comes in whole, skim, and non-fat varieties. It retains many of milk's essential nutrients, including protein, calcium, and vitamins A and D, making it a convenient source of nutrition when fresh milk is unavailable. Popular in cuisines worldwide, powdered milk is used in baking, beverages, and as an emergency food staple. While it offers long-term storage benefits, some varieties may contain added sugars or preservatives, so it’s important to read labels. It provides the same caloric density as fresh milk, but overconsumption can contribute to excess calorie intake. Powdered milk is an excellent pantry item for its versatility and nutrient retention, filling nutritional gaps in diets where fresh dairy access is limited.
