How To Make It
1. Fill a half pint beaker with milk.
2. Pour into a saucepan and heat, leaving at least two tablespoons of cold milk in the beaker.

4. Slowly pour the nearly boiling milk into the beaker, and stir continuously.
5. Pour the mixture back into the saucepan until it bubbles.
6. Pour into a mug and enjoy!
In A Microwave (650 watt)
1. Put one heaped teaspoon of Slippery Elm Food into a mug.
2. Add enough milk to make a smooth paste.
3. Fill mug almost to the top with milk, and heat on full power for one and a half minutes… or almost to boiling point.
4. Sweeten, or ‘flavour’ if you wish.
To Make A Sustaining Meal
1. Mix in a beaker one tablespoon of Slippery Elm Food and three tablespoons of milk to form a smooth paste.
2. Add about one third of a pint of milk to the paste, stir and pour into a saucepan.
3. Bring to just boiling point stirring all the time.
4. As soon as it thickens to a porridge consistency pour into a bowl and sweeten, ideally with honey, to taste.
