Evaporated Milk

[Deleted User]

Make an apple pie. Put a little hole in the top of the pastry top and pour in the evaporated milk carefully. Bake as usual. I have made this pie and it's lovely. The milk just soaks in and makes it all creamy, but not soggy at all.

the evaporated milk will be fine, make a milk jelly, dissolve jelly in a little bit of boiling water, maybe third of a pint, let it cool a bit, add evaporated milk and a bit more water to make 3/4 pint, whisk till frothy and leave in fridge to set, good with strawberry, raspberry jelly, tastes fab! my mam used to make this 30 years ago.

That's more likely to be condensed milk

What kind of things can you pour it on? What is it really nice with? Thanks in advance.

It's lovely poured over any fruit. This thread may give you more ideas:

Def agree tinned fruit, icecream, I remember as a kid tin fruit and evaporated milk was a real treat.

Also - if you add a 2 teaspoons sugar and whisk it up, tastes fab, goes bit like posh thick cream.

If your making custard or blamondge, use the evaporated milk and then top with normal milk, give it a really creamy feel.

(thank you for letting me remember Sunday teatimes in the 70s, childhood treat) xx

Apple pie, made by my nana. We had custard in winter and evaporated milk in summer.
