In our previous episode I spoke about phony condensed milk that is flooding the marketplaces all over the world-- if you missed it, the link is in the description listed below. Today I am going to reveal you how to make your own condensed milk at house utilizing simply milk and sugar. Since a lot of recipes call for condensed milk on can measurements, this dish will make the precise equivalent of a single can of condensed milk. If you need 2 cans, simply double up the recipe and adjust the timings appropriately. The added reward of making your own condensed milk is that it exercises at roughly half the cost of store-bought condensed milk. To start, ration 2 and one quarter cups of full cream milk, and 2 thirds of a cup of sugar plus one tablespoon. You can use any white sugar, however I choose to utilize caster sugar as it is extremely improved and contains less pollutants, resulting in less scum or slag that has to be skimmed from the top of the pot.
Location a heavy bottomed pot over medium heat and pour in the milk and sugar. Stir this till the sugar has liquified. You will know when it is dissolved as the bottom of the pot will be smooth. At this stage, get rid of the spatula from the pot and wait till the milk simply pertains to a mild simmer around the edges. Decrease the heat and enable this to simmer carefully for 35-40 minutes. The precise timing will depend on what pot you utilize, your stove, and lots of other variables. Throughout this stage it is essential not to interrupt the milk in any method. Stirring or agitating the milk will knock sugar crystals that form on the edges of the pot back into the mixture, and this will lead to a grainy condensed milk. When the milk has actually reduced to half of it's original volume, use a spoon dipped in a little water to skim off any slag or residue. The procedure is complete if the milk coats you spoon and leaks off from the spoon like pouring cream. Remove the pot from the heat and put the condensed milk through a sieve to strain out any skin and slag that you may have missed out on with the spoon. Allow the condensed milk to cool to room 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 velvety condensed milk made right here at house.
