Homestead Dairy - Clabbered Milk

Did you know that raw milk doesn't go bad? No, it doesn't go bad (if you have kept it decently clean)... it just goes different!
Our great grandmothers knew how to use this "different" to their benefit to feed their family (and their animals) probiotic and enzyme-rich foods... now you can too!
In this video, Carolyn shows you how to make your own clabbered milk - and she even eats some, just to prove that it is good!

“It doesn’t go bad; it goes different.” That’s how I’ve been describing what happens to milk! It makes people totally confused, because everyone is used to what happens to pasteurized milk. Love your videos!

[@missmishpot]

Raw milk from a healthy cow is such a blessing. There’s so much science involved and so many amazing things one can make at home, only after getting my own milk cow, that I’ve been totally blown away by how modern society has been brainwashed to think otherwise. Even my husband’s rural family who have had milk cows for generations have so many misconceptions now of how the science of raw milk works. It’s such a huge nutritional and economic loss for people who live in a place where raw milk is deemed illegal. The amount of butter I’ve made just this week has been simply obscene. People really need to be taught better food science and where/how our food is made. Thanks for all you share! I’ve learned so much!

[@elainebmack]

I was raised in Chicago in the state of Illinois which did not allow raw milk to be sold commercially, but when I moved to Maine 5 years ago raw milk was easily available. Now I am able to experiment and make all kinds of wonderful products, my favorites being kefir and kefir cheese, Greek yogurt, and more. It's made a huge difference in my health and well-being. I'm learning so much more from sites like yours. Thank you!

[@vandyke7575]

This explains why my grandmother would say that the milk had 'turned'. She never said it was bad, just that it turned. She was a farm girl. I am learning so much from your videos, your presentations are outstanding and the information you provide is clear and easy to understand. Your videos have inspired me to do this. Thank you so very much. And God bless you and your family.

[@linamouha8402]

In Morocco, where I am from, we call the first bottle "Raïb" and we usually eat it (sweetened with syrup) like another type of yogurt. The second one, we call "Leben" and it is costumary to drink it when eating Couscous. So yeah, for us it's normal to use almost all the different stages of raw milk.

[@longarmsupplies]

Thanks for posting! If only I had been a youtuber when I was at your stage of life. I was selling eggs and cottage cheese and cream at the local farmer's market. One thing I did different that you in this cottage cheese method was that I either heated the clabber or poured boiling water over it to wash off the whey and "firm up" the curds. I learned this from my Ukrainian mother in law. I bet we were killing off the good bacteria :( When I was at your stage, I was just known as a poor farm wife...LOL. Now I would have been trendy!

[@cheaphomesteading]

Veta B agree

[@nutritionalsolutions1872]

After firming up the curds with hot water, pour a bit of fresh milk or cream back into the strained curds. This re-inoculates the cottage cheese with healthy bacteria, and gives a great taste and texture.

[@edgrigsby8610]

People freak out when I tell them we leave our fresh eggs out on the counter. 😂. Nope....no refrigeration needed. ( As long as they're not washed). We wash them just before we use them. Been doing this for years.

[@juliejohnstone5583]

I think leaving eggs in the fridge is an American thing. I never refrigerate eggs. And they can be washed, but in the process you wash off a protective layer so then air can get in and they don't keep quite as long.

Great video! Quick story from Texas...My father was born in 1928 - next to the last child in a family of 10 children. I recall him saying that after he was weaned they started him on Clabber and when he was small he would cry at night if he didn't get, "His Clabber" prior to going to bed.

[@allthingsloveone4584]

CALIFORNIA??🙄

[@angelareed6539]

May I also add....... I have been milking goats and drinking raw milk for over 35 yrs. Prevention is always better ...... As to mastitis prevention, the essential oil peppermint added to a lotion, cream, or balm and massaged into the udder after each milking will assure a soft and mastitis free udder. It is also very important to always strip all milk out. Sometimes this is difficult as the mother will not let all her milk down. Continue to massage and lift up on the udder to assure ALL milk is out. Then as you massage the peppermint udder cream any remaining milk will then fill the teats which will also need to be extracted. This cream is very very important for all you that want to calf/kid share. Your momma will be quite prone to mastitis as the babies mouths aren't clean.

[@YeshuaKingMessiah]

Awesome advice!

In Europe, the best butter is made from clabbered cream. Cultured butter has a richer, nuttier flavour.

[@cheaphomesteading]

[@whiteswordwarrior9995]

butter was invented from clabbered milk. They saw these "clabs" and inspected them, and noticed they had advantages compared to the sugary milk by nature.

Respect to you Annette. I tried raw goats milk for the 1st time last week from a local herder. I got to stroke the goats and show them my gratitude while my sterilised glass bottle was being filled. Once I start drinking it, it’s difficult to stop! It’s awesome. Now I am making yogurt, cheese, cajeta and hopefully Kafir, if I can get hold of some grains. Love & light from Spain ❤

I grew up on raw milk and raw milk products and SURVIVED. The FDA would be very surprised.

[@bobrees4363]

Me too. I also have never broken a bone, a fact I attribute to the amount of raw milk I drank growing up. I have no real idea of how much milk I drank; but when our cow was dry, we were buying five gallons per week and I did not like the taste of store bought milk.

My Mama used to make clabber when I was a tiny girl.

[@michaelwaters6829]

Our fear in the U.S. stems from a mass death event during the industrialization of the milk industry due to bacterial infection from dirty hands used to milk the cows. If you have a healthy cow and clean hands and jars, your good.

[@ryanm914]

here they blame tubriculosis being transfered from cow to human.

[@MoralGovernment]

A magazine made up a story of an entire village dying from raw milk. My Great-Grandma reacted so scared to the idea of raw milk, she remembered the entire village that had died. I did some digging and that village never exited, the author had completely made it up!

[@edgrigsby8610]

The truth is actually kinda gross. Back in 1900's processing plants would collect milk from local farmers. This milk sat for hours in galvanised cans. the processing plant would get the milk in and when they opened the cans they would find dead rats and filth. NY city mandated pasteurization. Skip forward to the 70's US Gov't stepped in and mandated pasteurization for interstate sales

[@samuelbekele3601]

Exactly. Poor industrial practices are to blame, not farmers. I have a local farmer and she gives me awesome milk

[@GodGunsGutsandNRA]

Michael Waters- The problem started during the industrialization, but NOT from dirty hands! The deaths happened because somebody had the ‘brilliant’ idea to feed “spent grain” from the the process of making beer/alcohol to the milk cows. Cows are not meant to eat this, and when they were fed this spent grain, the milk actually developed a bluish tint, and they decided to add chalk to the milk to make it look like good milk. Problem wasn’t the bluish color, but the E-coli that developed due to feeding the cows spent grain.

[@amandag3853]

thank you so much for taking the time to explain everything so well and detailed. I love how much im learning from you

[@Crogon]

This is amazing! I'm so glad you posted this and I need your cheese recipe and lots of fun stuff! :) That said. I work in the food services industry. Specifically with dairy. Specifically, making cheeses. We go through 1.5 million gallons of milk on an average day. Listeria and E. Coli are VERY serious risks when working with milk. You would be shocked to discover how wide spread they are. They exist all over the world. They both exist all over the place. But thankfully, many many precautions are taken to keep them out of our food chain. Honestly, the military could learn a thing or two from food security practices. When those practices break down is when you hear about it on the 5 o'clock news. People died, and food is being recalled, tell your neighbors. Companies generally go out of business after it happens. I implore you to please please please make a second video, and mention sanitary and sterilization at least.. I dunno, 17 times? It truly is critical. One jar of this contaminated with E. Coli or Listeria could kill an entire family. This is also the excuse governmental agencies use to crack down on producers of raw milk. I understand the beneifts of raw milk completely and agree with you 100% on that front. Am I fear mongering? Perhaps a bit. I'll put it this way though, I'm not afraid to try it one bit. I'm looking forward to it. We have goats at home, and this is the first time I've ever heard someone explain how to do this. I'm DEFINITELY going to try it.. using sanitary practices and sterile containers and implements. ,)

[@mistybenefield5796]

Thanks for this. I've only recently discovered these videos and I love them, but there is a real risk, which can be mitigated by impeccable sanitary standards. That doesn't mean you can't or shouldn't drink raw milk, just that you should ensure you know how to handle it properly. Claiming there's no risk at all is not responsible.

[@HomesteadingFamily]

Hey there... It depends so much... our cows can eat mainly grass in the pasture for 6-8 months of the year, which really reduces the cost. Goats of course are cheaper to buy and to feed and a little easier to to keep (space wise). Check your local Craigslist to see what is available in your area!

[@armyguy9735]

What's the difference between clabbered and kefir milk? Is it like an old milk?

[@GlennaVan]

Please don't ever dump it down the drain. If you cannot use it all, put it on your plants, in your garden, etc., so all those good nutrients get used by your soil. The same thing for whey.

To make cottage cheese, salt your clabbered milk well (to taste), give it a good stir, then pour it into a muslin tea towel, tie it off and hang it overnight to drain. In the morning, put the cheese into a clean bowl and crumble it. Add enough sweet heavy cream to make a "sauce," then leave it covered on the counter for a day to sour. Give it a good stir before putting it in the fridge, and chill before serving.

Knew allabout this from my Auntee and Granny!! Hogs love this too!! Clabber yer cream before y'churn and you'll have the best butter ever!! I do believe that it lasts better because that good clabberin' bacteria runs off them bad bacteria...y'still gotta rinse n' salt it though...

I love watching your videos and am going to try the lemons and dream cheese. I once made the dream cheese years ago by taking a gallon of grocery store milk and putting in the oven in a pot with cheesecloth on top with the oven off overnight. It was the perfect temp for clabber. I really need to find fresh milk raw. I bought some at Whole Foods but it was expensive and was very thick. I was afraid of it.

Would love to see more recipes and dinners for your family :)

I bought Matsoni starter last May. Unfortunately it didn’t arrive till the end of May. Here in Tucson by then temperatures was already triple digits and even hotter in delivery van. The culture arrived DOA. I had been watching Videos on LABs Lactic Acid Serum where they catch Lactobacillus on rice wash water. I needed yoghurt for a digestive issue so I tried it and caught a Lactobacillus that ferments pasteurized milk into delicious yoghurt after 36 hours. I call it my gift from the universe. I’ve been fermenting pasteurized milk at room temperature. And during fermentation the milk has a delicious mild sweet aroma, and the bacteria keeps my gut biome healthy and no more digestive issues. After the temperatures moderated I ordered more mesophilic yoghurt starter I can’t wait to try it. Then I will see which culture helps my problem more. But very happy with my wild strain of Lactobacillus so far. I don’t know if the strain of bacteria is local to Tucson or came on the rice I bought at the store. Don’t throw the whey away. It can be used all kinds of ways. Fermentation starter to ferment natural soda, vegetables, etc Spray on compost piles to break things down. Give to farm animals and pets. I add whey to my dog’s kibble for probiotics. Whey strained off yoghurt is rich in nitrogen a free fertilizer for your plants. Whey can be substituted for water in recipes And many more

My husband remembers his grandpap having clabbered milk and cornbread every night with dinner. He said he never tried it and didn’t know what it was but looked like chunky milk lol. I’m going to try it today and see if he likes it.

So glad your channel was suggested to me. I've got extra raw milk and didn't know what to do with it.

[@jadeglantz5426]

Omg thank you so much for this

[@queeniebee237]

Thank you for this

[@seeker119]

I totally agree with u, I make my own kefir at home, I wish u a long live

[@sherryinsite5888]

Power watching your videos today. I agree with you on the raw milk being fine. I read a book on the study that was done on the bacterium in the milk. It said that after 24 hours the good bacteria eat the bad bacteria. It totally makes sense! Otherwise it would go bad like pasteurized processed milk. I can't remember the name of the book so be I had downloaded years ago on a kindle that is broke. To bad cause it had all the studies and I would have used it here for you to reference. It is out there somewhere though!

Yogurt is a great way to preserve milk...it lasts a while in the fridge... sometimes...yummy!🤗

[@angelabaril104]

I grew up making home made cottage cheese by letting the milk drip in a pillow case on the cloths line. Then we would bring it in and sugar it and add a tiny bit of salt and it tasted wonderful.

[@petemitchel9191]

Thank you for promoting the truth. Raw is so beneficial!

[@allysen3609]

my kitten just recently had a bowl of clabbered goat's milk and love it...older kitty, not so much

[@rebeccaharp3254]

Dirtpatcheaven How long does last keep after canning?

[@geribrandon7057]

Yes my mom had milk on the counter then, take the cream off the top and make butter. Then the milk left is buttermilk. Yum i love it. Not many people have there own milk cows these days. Id love to have some to make my butter.

[@geribrandon7057]

[@libertypastor1307]

I always say, "Raw milk sours; pasteurized milk spoils." That's what's different. Thanks for the video.

[@raincatcherbarbie8401]

Doing Raw milk now ..luv ur videos 💜

[@theraincafe9285]

24-hour clabber is mild and smooth. No chunks or funky flavors/odors. I drink one cup every day & leave one cup as the starter for the next day's batch.

[@Mindmaid1]

Thanks!
