Experienced housewives know many culinary tricks in which milk is the main ingredient.

Take, for example, the well-known trick with liver: if you soak the liver in milk for 1-2 hours, it will turn out more tender and juicy.

Fish fillets will also become juicier if you soak them in a milk “bath” for one hour.

In addition, when fried, the fillet will be covered with a delicious, delicate golden crust.

Soak dried mushrooms in milk for an hour, and their taste, which will become even more intense, will be unrecognizable.
