half and half
hello everybody,
I have a recipe for a bacon apple quiche I would like to try but one of the ingredients is called "half and half". As the englisch language is not my mothertongue (as you might have guessed) I don't have a clue what half and half means in this context. Could anybody pls enlighten me? thanks steffie |

Half & Half is half milk, half cream and weighs in with a butterfat content between 10.5 - 18%. It can't be whipped, but it's nice with coffee, or on cereal. Half & half is the cream usually served with Coffee in the US Rina "w.s. van leeuwen" > wrote in message ... > hello everybody, > > I have a recipe for a bacon apple quiche I would like to try but one of the > ingredients is called "half and half".
