Tastes good atop of arabica bean soup and foamed lactase.
edit: grammatical correct word to use here was "lactation" or "lactose product".
I'd say it's more of a tea than a soup. Unless you leave the grinds in.
They're the same picture.
Compromise and call it a broth.
I also like a bit of beaver scent gland juice added in.
Isn't that the thing that digests milk, but not milk? You can buy little lactase pills at the pharmacy.
Opps. You are correct.
Lactase, is an enzyme that helps break down lactose into its component parts for digestion. (Wiki)
I guess I was trying to use the verb form "lactate" for a science-y term for milk.
Lactate is lactic acid.
Cool. I didn't know that. I looked it up.
I'm in deep with my error. I should make a edit note in my original comment, just in case anyone has come this far. Thanks.
Didn't mean to sound like I was piling on, just wanted to let you know.
hell yeah. i also make a damn fine snickerdoodle ice cream
