There was a minor problem - the milk went sour! Now I can’t cook porridge for breakfast or drink coffee latte. It's a shame? Yes, sure. But no more. After all, from sour milk you will get two wonderful products - cottage cheese and whey. And it can be applied in many circumstances.
Cottage cheese is wonderful. But let's talk about the serum.
First of all, what is it?
This is a drink made from sour milk. All fats have been removed from it, so it is used in dietary nutrition. Since it has a slightly specific taste, you can add a little fruit or vegetable juice to it, or mix it with vegetable broth. Nutritional value whey is small, only 50 kcal per 250 grams of product, and this value practically does not depend on the fat content of the milk from which it was prepared, because all fats are removed from it during cooking.
It's very simple. The sour milk or kefir is placed in a water bath, closed with a lid and kept in slowly boiling water for several minutes. When the milk has curdled, it is set aside to cool and then strained. The resulting liquid is whey! It needs to be set aside for a while to cool, then strain. After that you can use it!
Whey has been known for a very long time. Cleopatra washed herself with it, oh her healing properties The doctors of the past knew it well and prescribed it to their patients in many cases. Hippocrates and Paracelsus wrote about it in their treatises. True, in those days whey was made not from cow’s milk, but from goat’s and sheep’s milk, because there were simply no cows in Europe at that time.
In Rus', dishes made from fermented milk were served at the feasts of Prince Vladimir in Kyiv in the 10th century, but the whey was not yet strained; its secret was lost over time and had to be rediscovered. This happened already in post-Petrine times. But even then its properties were unknown, and the serum was simply thrown away. They were given to animals and used as fertilizer. Until someone thought of mixing it into dough for flatbreads. I liked the result.
In Medieval Europe, doctors attributed miraculous properties to it, sometimes even undeserved ones, and prescribed it to absolutely everyone. And it was from Europe that the serum was “brought” to Russia.
In the middle of the 19th century, the only hospital in the entire Southwestern region of the Russian Empire operated in Kyiv, where people were served fermented milk products, including whey, to treat digestive problems. The course lasted about three months, and the observant maids from the hospital noticed a striking improvement in the skin condition of all patients. Of course, they began to prepare a miracle serum for themselves - having discovered for themselves the secret of Cleopatra's beauty.
Does whey have beneficial properties? And what are they?
First of all, this is an absolutely natural product that does not contain any additional chemical additives. It contains no flavors, preservatives, or dyes. She is the same as the milk from which you prepared her.
The serum itself is one of the cheapest and simplest cosmetic products. And it's always easy to get. And the effect of its use can be comparable to expensive branded ones.
But let's take things in order.
In a word, whey is good for everyone to drink!
Sometimes it can - it is contraindicated for people with lactose intolerance. Its use will cause allergic reactions and the effect is completely opposite than in people with normal perception of lactose. But a person, as a rule, knows about this peculiarity of his, and will not drink it.
Also, do not get too carried away with it, so as not to cause diarrhea. Drinking 1-2 glasses a day is enough. For whey, such dosages are quite acceptable and acceptable. But you should listen to your body, and if a sharp disgust appears, it is better to take a break for one or two days.
She has no more contraindications!
This is all about the internal problems of the body. But can it help modern man, so to speak, from the outside? Of course it can!
And for external use it is suitable for everyone.
Cosmetologists have been using whey for a long time. It is indispensable for acne and other skin problems.
With the first spring sun, freckles appear on your face. And if for younger teenagers they are a cute decoration for the face, then for older people this can result in a problem that is not only cosmetic. Serum will come to the rescue! You need to take several frozen cubes of it and massage your face with them. The serum will whiten all problem areas in a few days. In addition, the skin will receive additional nutrition. And to achieve the best effect, drink an additional half glass of it per day.
It is convenient to use for anti-cellulite massages. The beneficial substances that it contains will help smooth the skin and break down fat accumulation. The serum will effectively moisturize the skin and give it additional nutrition.
It is useful to add serum to water while taking a bath. For a large bath - one liter.
It is also good for bathing children. You can use a glass of whey for a small baby bath.
Milk serum is suitable for hair, especially thin, brittle, weakened hair. It will be an excellent rinse aid for them. After such rinsing, the hair receives additional strengthening elements, becomes stronger, more voluminous and shines after drying.
The simplest thing is to prepare a fortified drink. To do this, you need to mix the whey with any juice in equal parts. You can add herbal infusions, mint, honey to it. The drink must be thoroughly mixed and strained. It's best to drink chilled.
Whey is convenient for kneading dough. If this is pie dough, they will turn out whiter and fluffier. These pies will also be less caloric, especially if they are cooked on vegetable oil. They turn out great on whey thin pancakes- elastic and not torn.
It will make an excellent okroshka - the whey will successfully replace any dressing.
Here it is, simple and unnoticeable. But in fact, irreplaceable. So use it more often, and whey will thank you for your trust in it a hundredfold.
Whey drink with juice is made from the most valuable part of milk for an athlete - skimmed skim milk (whey). When caseins are removed from curdled milk, quite a lot of protein and a full range of microelements remain in the whey. For a long time, these components were not considered as worthy products, and the waste was sent to feed livestock. However, further observations by veterinarians showed that animals receiving skim milk as a drink grow faster, gain muscle mass better and have better health than animals receiving water and conventional micronutrient supplements.
It turned out that this effect is caused by the fact that whey contains large quantities of water-soluble globular proteins: albumins and globulins (they are called “whey proteins”). They are absorbed very quickly and are completely used for muscle growth, since they contain all the essential amino acids. The very proportions of microelements and whey proteins in milk stimulate active growth.
There are few such proteins in our regular food. Adults rarely drink raw milk, and most dairy products lose whey protein during processing (cottage cheese, cheeses, sour cream, butter do not contain them, since whey is separated during production; in boiled milk, whey proteins, curdled from high temperature, form foam, which most people throw away) .
This healthy liquid is rich in: lactose, calcium, magnesium, vitamins C, A, E and group B, nicotinic acid and other beneficial substances. It is also valued for the presence of globular proteins. The serum is recommended for various diseases: the cardiovascular system, gastrointestinal tract, skin, respiratory tract, reproductive system and metabolic disorders.
Attention! People with high acidity of gastric juice are recommended to dilute the whey with boiled water in a 1:1 ratio.

Whey is one of the fermented milk products, which have value for the body. Many people do not use whey and consider it a waste product - it is formed during the production of cottage cheese. Meanwhile, the benefits of whey for the body are enormous and no less significant than the benefits of milk, cottage cheese, cheese, fermented baked milk, kefir and yoghurts.
The composition of whey is rich in vitamins A, E, C, B vitamins, and the liquid contains rare forms of vitamins B7 and B4. The benefits of choline for the body are manifested in improving brain function and enhancing memory.
Whey is rich in calcium - 1 liter of drink contains the daily dose of calcium for an adult and 40% of the normal amount of potassium. Milk whey also contains valuable mineral salts of phosphorus and magnesium. The liquid contains up to 200 types of biologically active substances that have a beneficial effect on the activity of all systems and organs in the human body. 
Consumption of whey has a beneficial effect on the digestive tract, cleanses the intestines, normalizes flora, removes toxins and waste, and stimulates the liver and kidneys. The serum also affects the adrenal glands, which produce stress hormones. When using serum, work improves, and the production of stress hormones stops without reason.
The benefit of whey is its ability to reduce appetite. Many diets are based on the use of whey and allow you to lose weight easily and safely for the body. Of the carbohydrates, whey contains lactose, which is easily digestible and does not cause the formation of fat.
The protein component of whey is also valuable. The valuable amino acids that make up the liquid are necessary for the body and are involved in protein metabolism and hematopoiesis.
The serum is useful for people suffering from diseases of the gastrointestinal tract: gastritis, colitis, pancreatitis, enterocolitis, dysbacteriosis and constipation. The benefits of whey for the circulatory system are great: it helps prevent atherosclerosis and is indicated for hypertension, coronary heart disease, and circulatory disorders in the brain.
It is worth talking about the cosmetic properties of the serum. This liquid is used as the basis for masks for the skin of the face and neck; it is used to rinse hair so that it grows better and does not fall out. Whey is a valuable healing product that will help with sunburn.
Whey can be found in departments of stores where they sell dairy products. The liquid can also be obtained at home, in the process of preparing homemade cottage cheese.
To make whey, take 1 liter of fresh milk and turn it into curdled milk. You can simply leave the milk in a warm place and add a spoonful of sour cream or kefir to speed up the process. When the milk has fermented, it is poured into an enamel saucepan and heated over low heat. Make sure that the mass does not boil, but warms up to a temperature of 60-70°C. When curd mass separates, place the mixture in cheesecloth and let the whey drain. 
The resulting cottage cheese is ready for use, and the whey can be used for any purpose: as a base for soup - pickles are prepared on its basis, as a basis for yeast dough– with whey it turns out tender and fluffy) as a medicinal product – drinking pure whey is recommended for adults and children. If children refuse to drink whey, it can be added to vegetable and fruit juices. These “whey juice cocktails” will be rich in vitamins and minerals.
When drinking whey, remember that it has a slight laxative effect; if you do not have problems with bowel movements, then you should not drink the drink before leaving the house or before a long journey.

Where can I get the serum?
Most often it can be found on the market in dairy pavilions, sometimes in stores. It is very easy to prepare natural whey yourself. There are recipes for making it entirely from milk or only from kefir. But I like my mom's recipe. We buy 1 liter of milk, 0.5 liters of kefir, pour everything into a saucepan, put it on the stove. As soon as it starts to boil, remove it immediately. The resulting water is whey, we use it in weight loss drinks, the rest is natural cottage cheese. A very economical and healthy recipe.
One day I became interested in whey drinks and they were permanently included in the menu...
If you, like me, cook occasionally homemade cottage cheese, cottage cheese in a slow cooker or thick yogurt, then you are wondering where to put the whey from them?
Except Adyghe cheese, baking options, such as pancakes, hash browns or bread, include whey-based drinks in the menu. They are healthy and very tasty if you try a little))
Whey after thick yogurt has a milder taste, but tart whey after cottage cheese or cottage cheese is better to dilute a little with cold drinking water.
Whey-based fruit drinks are sold in our area, and they inspired me to experiment.
1. Whey cocktail with jam

Pour the finished whey cocktail into a serving glass.
Serve the cocktail immediately because it will separate within a few minutes...

Pour the drink into a glass and serve immediately.
A refreshing, tasty and healthy whey drink with sweet syrup is ready.
3. Fresh fruit cocktail with whey
For this sweet, fluffy whey shake, I tried a variety of fresh fruits and especially liked bananas, pears and kiwi. I'll show you the version with banana. 
Natural syrups (and pekmezes), such as agave, jam syrups or honey, are great as sweet syrups.
List of ingredients:
serum - 150-200 ml
