You make evaporated milk by reducing it or evaporating away much of the water it contains. Don't boil it, because it will scorch and stick like mad to your pan, resulting in a grumpy dishwasher. Simmer it until it is reduced by more than half. Commercially produced evaporated milk has had 60% of its water removed. In these days of instant cooking and gratification, it is rare to find someone who would rather take the time to evaporate his or her own milk than pick up a few cans at the store. But, if you don't want to buy canned evaporated milk and since you won't have read to the end of this piece anyway it's nice to know there is an alternative. |
