I only nodded at her suggestions with what to do with the meat, she had a good handle of what to do with the meat and there wasn't much else to add to her suggestions, "Usually I just saw the bones into smaller chunks for soup, but you can cook it for Bertha, there's some maize meal so you can even make her some porridge with the bones." I paused at the fact that she thought me to be rich, of course judging from what she told me that they had to do to survive I could understand that sentiment. Then she returned to the powder milk, I paused once more.
"They had a huge tray which held milk, a huge drum turned just above the tray, it's surface dipping into the milk. They heated the drum with electricity and the residue which stuck to the heated drum got scraped off. Or at least that is what I read, I also read that they used nozzles to spray milk into a heated environment, allowing the moisture to evaporate. Usually there were around one hundred cows milked a day if not more. They used to talk of thousands of litres of milk."
I frowned, seems like I remembered more than I thought, I shrugged and contined to cut off the meat and placed the bones aside, "A few hours' trek from here there is a small corn field, I usually get my corn there to make the maize meal."
