📝 Preparation Steps
1
Add the milk and sugar into a small, heavy bottomed saucepan.
2
Heat it on a low heat until the sugar has dissolved.
3
Once all of the sugar has dissolved bring the mix to a simmer over medium low heat. Do not stir once the mix starts to simmer otherwise it can crack and crystalize.
4
Gently simmer for roughly ⏱️ 35-40 minutes, or until the milk has darkened to a creamy color, has reduced by half and thickened slightly. You may notice some foam forming on top, gently skim it off with a spoon. (if there are sugary bits hanging around the rim of your pot don’t stir them into your condensed milk, this can also crack your mix)
5
When ready, remove from the heat and pour into a jar to cool. Let the condensed milk cool completely before putting on the airtight lid. Just note, it thickens up alot after a few hours in the fridge.
6
Store in a labeled jar in the fridge and it will last for 6 months.
