Today I am going to show you how to make your own condensed milk at home utilizing just milk and sugar. Given that a lot of recipes call for condensed milk on can measurements, this dish will make the specific equivalent of a single can of condensed milk. The included bonus of making your own condensed milk is that it works out at roughly half the cost of store-bought condensed milk. To start, distribute 2 and one quarter cups of complete cream milk, and 2 thirds of a cup of sugar plus one tablespoon. You can utilize any white sugar, nevertheless I choose to utilize caster sugar as it is highly improved and consists of less pollutants, resulting in less residue or slag that has actually 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 till 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 till the milk just comes to a mild simmer around the edges. Decrease the heat and allow this to simmer carefully for 35-40 minutes. The exact timing will depend on what pot you utilize, your stove, and numerous other variables. Throughout this stage it is essential not to disturb the milk in any way. 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 decreased to half of it's original volume, use a spoon dipped in a little water to skim any slag or scum. The process is total if the milk coats you spoon and drips off from the spoon like pouring cream. Eliminate the pot from the heat and pour the condensed milk through a screen to strain out any skin and slag that you might have missed out on with the spoon. Allow the condensed milk to cool to room temperature level prior to refrigerating and covering. The condensed milk will last for 6 months under refrigeration. As the condensed milk cools it will thicken drastically to the consistency of store-bought condensed milk. And there we have it, silky-smooth creamy condensed milk made right here in the house.
