Soured milk

Soured milk denotes a range of food products produced by the acidification of milk. acidification, which gives the milk a tart taste, is achieved either through bacterial fermentation or through the addition of an acid, such as lemon juice or vinegar. the acid causes milk to coagulate and thicken, inhibiting the growth of harmful bacteria and improving the product's shelf life. soured milk that is produced by bacterial fermentation is more specifically called fermented milk or cultured milk. traditionally, soured milk was simply fresh milk that was left to ferment and sour by keeping it in a warm place for a day, often near a stove. modern commercial soured milk may differ from milk that has become sour naturally.soured milk that is produced by the addition of an acid, with or without the addition of microbial organisms, is more specifically called acidified milk. in the united states, acids used to manufacture acidified milk include acetic acid (commonly found in vinegar), adipic acid, citric acid (commonly found in lemon juice), fumaric acid, glucono-delta-lactone, hydrochloric acid, lactic acid, malic acid, phosphoric acid, succinic acid, and tartaric acid. soured milk is commonly made at home or is sold and consumed in europe, especially in eastern europe (bulgaria, belarus, poland, russia, ukraine, lithuania), all over the countries of the former yugoslavia (macedonia, serbia, montenegro, bosnia and herzegovina, croatia, slovenia), romania, hungary, greece, finland, germany, scandinavia and slovakia. it is also made at home or sold in supermarkets and consumed in the great lakes region of somalia and eastern africa (kenya, uganda, rwanda, burundi and tanzania). it is also a traditional food of the bantu people of southern africa. since the 1970s, some producers have used chemical acidification in place of biological agents.

Drink

Tea

Tea is an aromatic beverage prepared by pouring hot or boiling water over cured or fresh leaves of camellia sinensis, an evergreen shrub native to china, india and other east asian countries. tea is also rarely made from the leaves of camellia taliensis. after water, it is the most widely consumed drink in the world. there are many different types of tea; some have a cooling, slightly bitter, and astringent flavour, while others have vastly different profiles that include sweet, nutty, floral, or grassy notes. tea has a stimulating effect in humans primarily due to its caffeine content.tea plants are native to east asia and probably originated in the borderlands of southwestern china and northern burma. an early credible record of tea drinking dates to the third century ad, in a medical text written by hua tuo. it was popularised as a recreational drink during the chinese tang dynasty, and tea drinking subsequently spread to other east asian countries. portuguese priests and merchants introduced it to europe during the 16th century. during the 17th century, drinking tea became fashionable among the english, who started to plant tea on a large scale in india. the term herbal tea refers to drinks not made from camellia sinensis. they are the infusions of fruit, leaves, or other plant parts, such as steeps of rosehip, chamomile, or rooibos. these may be called tisanes or herbal infusions to prevent confusion with tea made from the tea plant.
