About Evaporated milk tablespoon
Evaporated milk is a versatile dairy product made by removing about 60% of the water from fresh milk, resulting in a thick, creamy texture. A tablespoon of evaporated milk contains approximately 10-20 calories, 1 gram of protein, and small amounts of fat, carbohydrates, and vitamin D, depending on the brand. Originating in the 19th century, evaporated milk became popular due to its long shelf life and convenience, often used in American, European, and Asian cuisines for desserts, soups, and sauces. It provides a concentrated source of calcium and protein, supporting bone health and muscle maintenance, but it can be higher in saturated fat compared to fresh milk. Some varieties also contain added sugar, so it’s essential to check labels if limiting sugar intake. Evaporated milk is a practical option for recipes needing richness without the excess sugar of sweetened condensed milk.
