RE: Myth or Fact? #16 – Skin on heated milk is dangerous

in #science8 years ago

The skin will not hurt you (well, no less than any other over-cooked food). However, as it cools, it is possible that the skin later becomes a "barrier" and collects mould, whilst the fluid remains edible. This could be a reason why it was seen as unsafe. However, baked rice pudding (ugh!), with its skin, has never been seen as such a health hazzard as far as I am aware.

I didn't like the skin at all. Furthermore it can overcook the milk since the steam can't escape properly
