From Milk... You Can Make These Dishes

Make for your children this delicious kind of milk: when the milk boils, put a pair of tongs on the fire until its tips grow hot and red; then, holding a lump or two of sugar in these tips, hold it over the milk as it boils on the fire. The sugar melts in the form of "caramel" and drops into the milk, giving it a lovely taste and aroma. For each cup, melt two lumps of sugar by this special, easy method. This milk is a beneficial and wholesome drink for those suffering from a cold, just as it is delicious for children and grown-ups alike in the morning or at the tea hour in the afternoon.

How to make delicious cream cheese:

When you leave the boiled milk to set, as though you were going to make laban of it, it will appear covered with a layer of cream. You must not leave it thus for long, for it turns sour; use it before then, cream and all. If you want the cheese to be smoother and more delicious, add to it also, from time to time, soft fresh cream besides its own; and you must beat it vigorously in a vessel with a wooden spoon, so that the laban and the cream blend together completely. Then put it in gauze in a basket prepared for cheese-making, so that the water drains out of it. You may add salt as you please.
