Today I am going to show you how to make your own condensed milk at house using simply milk and sugar. Since the majority of recipes call for condensed milk on can measurements, this recipe will make the specific equivalent of a single can of condensed milk. The included benefit of making your own condensed milk is that it works out at roughly half the rate of store-bought condensed milk. To begin, distribute 2 and one quarter cups of complete cream milk, and 2 thirds of a cup of sugar plus one tablespoon. You can use any white sugar, however I choose to use caster sugar as it is extremely improved and includes less pollutants, resulting in less scum or slag that has to be skimmed from the top of the pot.
Place a heavy bottomed pot over medium heat and gather the milk and sugar. Stir this until the sugar has dissolved. When it is liquified as the bottom of the pot will be smooth, you will understand. At this stage, eliminate the spatula from the pot and wait up until the milk just pertains to a gentle simmer around the edges. Minimize the heat and allow this to simmer gently for 35-40 minutes. The specific timing will depend upon what pot you use, your range, and lots of other variables. During this stage it is necessary not to disturb the milk in any method. Stirring or upseting the milk will knock sugar crystals that form on the edges of the pot back into the mix, and this will lead to a rough condensed milk. When the milk has minimized to half of it's initial volume, use a spoon dipped in a little water to skim off any slag or residue. The procedure is total if the milk coats you spoon and drips off from the spoon like pouring cream. Get rid of the pot from the heat and put the condensed milk through a screen to strain out any skin and slag that you may have missed with the spoon. Allow the condensed milk to cool to space temperature prior to cooling and covering. The condensed milk will last for 6 months under refrigeration. As the condensed milk cools it will thicken significantly to the consistency of store-bought condensed milk. And there we have it, silky-smooth creamy condensed milk made right here in your home.
In our previous episode I spoke about fake condensed milk that is flooding the markets around the world-- if you missed it, the link is in the description below. Today I am going to reveal you how to make your own condensed milk at home using just milk and sugar. Because most dishes call for condensed milk on can measurements, this recipe will make the exact equivalent of a single can of condensed milk. Place a heavy bottomed pot over medium heat and pour in the milk and sugar.
