About Milk, canned, evaporated, with added vitamin A
Evaporated milk is a shelf-stable canned milk made by gently heating fresh milk until roughly half its water cooks off, leaving a thick, slightly caramelized, concentrated liquid. Unlike its sugary cousin sweetened condensed milk, it contains no added sugar, which makes it a versatile all-purpose ingredient. Diluted with an equal amount of water it stands in for fresh milk, while used straight it lends a rich, creamy body to soups, sauces, casseroles, coffee, and custards without the fat of heavy cream.
It is the secret to silky pumpkin pie, fudge, tres leches cake, and many classic holiday desserts. Because it is canned, evaporated milk keeps for months unopened and needs no refrigeration until the can is opened, a real convenience for the pantry. It supplies protein, calcium, and vitamin D in concentrated form. Once opened, transfer any leftover to a covered container, refrigerate it, and use it within a few days.
