 So you want about a liter of milk for this recipe.

Another question......wouldn't it be a bit easier to just say about 2 liters 
than to keep the word 'azumbre'? I have redacted several recipes from the 
middle eastern corpus and I always give the measurement for 'uqqiya' rather 
than write 6 uqqiya. Is there a good reason for not translating the original 
measurement word that I am unaware of?
