 | | Mares can only be milked if their foals are present, so you can recognize a ger of airag-making family by a group of foals tied close by. |  | | During long trips it is customary to stop two-three times a day for food, and six-fifteen times for airag (fermented horse milk, also known as kumys, which contains 3-5 percent alcohol). |  | | When you switch to this diet, you miss fruits and vegetables at first, but you get used to it in a week or two. |
