That is such a cool site. This weekend, I was making a recipe for cheese
bread that won the Pillbury Bake Off in 1951. It called for scalded milk.
I had no clue why I should scald the milk, but I did. Reading the posted
site, it was probably because not all milk was pasteurized when the recipe
was designed.
