The biggest difference between condensed and evaporated milk is the sugar content. Both are made by reducing a percent of the water content from the milk but the condensed version has sugar added which is why it’s called Sweetened Condensed Milk. 1. Add the milk and sugar into a small, heavy bottomed saucepan.
2. Heat it on a low heat until the sugar has dissolved. 3. Once all of the sugar has dissolved bring the mix to a simmer over medium low heat. Do not stir once the mix starts to simmer otherwise it can crack and crystalize. 4. Gently simmer for roughly 35-40 minutes, or until the milk has darkened to an almost grey color, has reduced by half and thickened slightly.
You may notice some foam forming on top, gently skim it off with a spoon. 5. When ready, remove from the heat and pour into a jar to cool. Let the condensed milk cool completely before putting on the airtight lid. Just note, it thickens up alot after a few hours in the fridge. 6. Store in a labeled jar in the fridge and it will last for 6 months.
