Help...I have an old cookbook and the recipe calls for 1 cup of sweet milk...what is that....regular milk??? Evaporated or condensed?? The recipe is pound cake by the way!!
Found this online:
"Sweet milk is fresh milk, (instead of buttermilk). It's an old-fashioned Southern term commonly used to distinguish between the two in the days before refrigeration, when people churned their own butter and always had buttermilk on hand. Sometimes, it's preferable to bake using "sweet" milk when there are other strongly flavored ingredients, such as sharp Cheddar cheese."
