Blurb:

Up until the 1960s, city people did not have to go to the






stores to buy milk. A movable dairy, so to speak, used to






deliver fresh unadulterated milk every evening. Um ilhaleeb






(the milkmaid) would come with her cow and her






bucket, and milk the cow right in front of her customers’






eyes. Then, with a funnel, she would pour warm foamy






milk into their bottles. But all that ended with the advent






of commercially pasteurized milk products. This chapter includes: Home-made Yogurt;


Drained Yogurt;


White Cheese;
