Making fudge...calls for canned milk, don't have any..?!


Question: Making fudge!.!.!.calls for canned milk, don't have any!.!.!?
can I use just regular skim milk or will that fail!?!?Www@FoodAQ@Com


Answers:
Canned milk - whether it is evaporated or condensed - has had at least 40% of its water removed so it is thicker than regular or skim milk - so in answer to your question, using skim milk or even regular milk will fail!. Wait until you can get to the store to buy the type of canned milk called for in the recipe!.

Don't try it with skim or regular milk, the taste and texture will be off!. You need the evaporated milk!. I have been making fudge with marshmallow creme for years and one time tried using regular milk and it didn't turn out very well!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

you can try substituting with half and half, or heavy cream, since evaporated milk has 50 to 60 percent of the water removed!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

I think you should run out and get the right milk!. Regular of any kind just won't work if it calls for evaporated!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

If it calls for evaporated milk, skim milk wont work, You need the fat in itWww@FoodAQ@Com

i'd just use regular milkWww@FoodAQ@Com
