About Canned milk

Canned milk, available as evaporated or sweetened condensed milk, is a concentrated dairy product commonly used in cooking and baking. Evaporated milk is made by removing about 60% of water from fresh milk, resulting in a rich, creamy liquid with a longer shelf life. Sweetened condensed milk includes added sugar, offering a dense, sweet flavor ideal for desserts. Originating in the 19th century as a method of preservation, canned milk is popular in cuisines worldwide, including American, Asian, and Latin American dishes. Nutritionally, it is high in calcium and vitamins like A and D, which support bone health. However, sweetened condensed milk is calorie-dense and high in sugar, making moderation important. Both types serve as versatile ingredients in recipes and provide a convenient alternative to fresh dairy products, especially when refrigeration is unavailable.
