Hi Miriam : Thanks for the clarification, I never knew that "evaporated" milk was called "condensed" milk. I always thought there were the evaporated milk (Carnation, Pet milk) and the condensed milk (Eagle Brand). I use the evaporated milk to make cakes and other baking recipes, and condensed milk I use it to make cookies, for coffee, and anything that requires more sugar (sweetening). Interesting. Patrizio.

Dora Diana <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Question: Could you tell me the difference between condensed milk and sweetened condensed milk? Alta Dena has a yogurt that has condensed milk as an ingredient but there is no listing of sugar. Do all condensed milks have sugar added? - Heidi Rouda (10/27/99) Answers: The definition of sweetened condensed milk from Food Lover's Companion by Sharon Tyler Herbst: "A mixture of whole milk and sugar, 40%-45% of which is sugar. This mixture is heated until about 60% of the water evaporates. The resulting condensed mixture is extremely sticky and sweet. Unsweetened condensed milk is referred to as evaporated milk. Store unopened sweetened condensed milk at room temperature for up to 6 months. Once opened, transfer the unused milk to an airtight container, refrigerate and use within 5 days. Sweetened condensed milk is used in baked goods and desserts such as candies, puddings, pies, etc." http://whatscookingamerica.net/Q-A/ConMilk.htm -- _______________________________________________ Get your free email from www.doramail.com with 30 Megs of disk space in webhosting and e-mail storage!
