Half-and-half is one of the most versatile ingredients in your refrigerator. You might only use it every morning in your coffee, but it is a handy milk substitute in baking, makes pasta sauces creamier, and can add flavor and body to gravies and pan sauces. It’s not as heavy as cream yet more rounded than plain milk, and it keeps for a while, too.
If you somehow find yourself with a surplus of half-and-half, you can freeze it for future use (into ice cube trays for easy-to-use tablespoon portions) or you can try one of these five ways to use up a little or a lot of half-and-half.
