Ask Swedish Sloth - How To Make Fil Milk?

<><><><><><><><><><><>
Dear Swedish Sloth,

Can you please tell me what the measurements are for making your own filmjolk. I have a 1 litre carton and would love to make it last.

Thanks

Magnus

Dear Magnus,

Thanks for asking Swedish Sloth!

Normally to make more fil milk, you would just put a little of the old fil milk in a bowl, add fresh milk to it, put a towel over it to keep out light (and flies), and then let it sit overnight. Poof alla kazaam! You have a fresh batch of fil milk the next morning for your meusli.

This recipe has worked for our cute little Swedish friends for countless millennia. However a couple hundred years ago some French bastard named Louis invented pasteurization. And nowadays for safety reasons it's hard to get un-pasteurized milk. And this little recipe works best with un-pasteurized milk. But despair not young filmjolk Padawan, for despair leads to fear... and fear leads to anger.

You simply add a little Lactococcus and Leuconostoc bacteria. Make sure you don't add the wrong kind of bacteria though, or you will probably die. May the force be with you.
