Dairy
Skimmed
Skimmed reindeer milk has nearly all fat removed—lean, more lactose-forward sweetness, and thinner body. Useful when calories or fat must be low; weaker for creamy sauces without help. Drink cold; heat gently to avoid catching. Not ideal for rich custards unless enriched again with eggs or starch. Species character still shows: rare, rich northern specialty milk.
