Is there any safe and good way to use milk that is beginning to sour? Or should I just throw it out?

If in doubt, throw it out. I don't save sour milk. Worked with a gal one time who said her mother would purposely buy a gallon of milk and let it go sour for a week on their counter outside the fridge. I couldn't imagine and still can't but they had it on toast with sugar. That was decades ago. My husband goes through a gallon a week just by himself. Helps to keep him going a couple extra hours past lunch if need be.

I have used milk past its best for Devil's Food Chocolate cake. If it's gone chunky, I would throw it out.

I've always just thrown old milk out, but then once I needed buttermilk for a new recipe, but really did not want to buy as no one here would drink it, so looking up some alternatives in cooking supplies, it stated the sub for btrmlk was to add a certain amt of vinegar to reg milk......actually, I didn't do it, did go buy the qt. of btrmlk, used what I needed and chucked the rest.....

There are all sorts of old recipes that call for sour milk, cookies come to mind. But, I usually throw it away.

I had to throw out some chunky Egg Nog. Very sad.

I would google "sour milk" and see what looks good to you. I know there's many ways to use it.

I have a recipe for Banana bread that calls for a half cup of sour milk. I usually just add vinegar to the milk to make it sour.

Only raw milk sours. Pasterized milk rots! Throw it out.

Pancakes, biscuits, cakes, any recipe that calls for buttermilk, you can also use sour milk. Any yes my job is cooking.
