Condensed milk
It is a dairy product obtained by evaporation of water from whole milk at a reduced pressure of 55 60 °C. The production of condensed milk, otherwise known as concentrated milk, consists of purifying and cooling the milk, normalizing the fat content, and then preheating it to free the product of microbes and enzymes, which would later affect its quality and storage. It then proceeds to the process of concentrating milk in vacuum packs.
Condensed milk composition
Condensed milk is mainly used as a supplement to coffee, cocktails, desserts, but also to meat products such as chicken in curry.
