magic mix made from powdered milk

This simple food storage mix made from powdered milk, flour or cornstarch, and butter will revolutionize the way you cook!

Have you ever heard of magic mix?

It’s a simple mix of flour (or cornstarch, if you’re gluten free), butter and powdered milk that will allow you to easily and effortlessly make flawless white sauces, smooth gravies, homemade cream soups, and even chocolate pudding in just minutes!  It’s honestly one of the best kitchen hacks to save you money and time while cooking.

If you’ve ever tried to make a white sauce, you know it can be a little tricky. With Magic Mix, making white sauce is simple and quick, and you’ll use your powdered milk. So say hello to Magic Mix and perfect white sauces in seconds!

Developed by the Utah State Extension Service, Magic Mix is a combination of powdered milk, butter, and flour or cornstarch—yes, now you have an easy gluten-free option! Once you use it to make a white sauce, Magic Mix will be the new “must have” in your cooking arsenal. Try these recipes (or any recipes that call for a white sauce), and your family won’t be able to resist!

HOW TO USE MAGIC MIX

It’s simple! Just use Magic Mix in any recipe calling for a white sauce. In fact, you can add a little Magic Mix to anything you’d like to be creamy. Unlike flour that clumps in hot liquid, Magic Mix does not! So go ahead and add some magic mix into your family’s favorite recipes; some dishes that often contain a white sauce are creamy soups, homemade macaroni and cheese, pasta sauces, and vegetable dishes like new potatoes with peas.

To put it simply, it’s a mix that will revolutionize the way you cook, but before we can show you the rest of its amazing properties, you’ll need to know how to make it. Be sure to subscribe to our new YouTube channel to learn how to make your own condensed soups (like cream of chicken, mushroom, tomato or celery), a deliciously easy Slow Cooker Potato Soup with Magic Mix, a decadent chocolate pudding and even super easy gravy!  To make it even easier, you can check out these food storage conversion chart magnets that make cooking with your food storage as simple as can be.

  1. Love your post.
    Could you use powdered butter to make this a shelf stable item?
    I know several companies that carry a powder white sauce in a can (Alfredo sauce) would love to make my own shelf stable sauce.
    Thank you for all your great post

      Yes, I don’t normally do it because powdered butter costs $5 to make the equivalent of a fresh pound of butter. But, I have tried it and it does work. You just need to be sure to add in extra water for the powdered butter.

      1. Thank you
        How long is the magic mix good for in the icebox? Once again thank you

          It will store in your fridge for 3-6 months…if you don’t go through it before then. 😉
