Condensed Milk
Condensed milk is a product most of us know from supermarket shelves, where it has been available for some years. It consists of sweetened, concentrated whole milk and is especially used for homemade caramel, which can be made without any other ingredients than a can of condensed milk and a pot of water.
Ingredients
- 1 l Whole Milk
- 400 gram Sugar
- 1.2 gram Baking Soda
Instructions
- Pour whole milk and sugar into a pot.
- Bring the mixture to a boil and let it simmer over medium heat for about 20 minutes. It is important to stir the milk regularly during boiling, as it will otherwise burn.
- When the mixture begins to thicken and become yellowish and bubbly, it is done.
- Remove the milk from the heat.
- Add baking soda to the concentrated milk - the milk will thicken as soon as it cools down.
- Pour your homemade condensed milk into clean, scalded jars and store the jars in the fridge.
