Yes...
I am vegan and I have never tried it, but my friends have tried it and they said that it was great. I'm sorry, I don't know the recipe.
Happy whipped cream!
Yes, half and half in the US is half heavy or whipping cream and half milk. So heavy or whipping cream can be made into half and half by substituting half of it with milk.
No. Whipping cream is more denser and has more fat than full-fat or full-cream milk.
If you want to make cream out of milk, it will be lighter and more delicate than if you made it out of heavy whipping cream. Heavy whipping cream is better suited for cakes and heavy desserts, while milk can be used for a lighter icing.
You can do anything you like in cooking. However, this particular substitution is not ideal. Whipping cream is a heavy cream, not a light cream. A mixture of whipping cream and milk would be a better substitution.
Whipped cream is not made directly from milk, and it is not possible to make whipped cream with homogenized milk purchased at supermarkets. Milk will froth and foam, but it does not have enough fat to form whipped cream. One needs heavy cream to make whipped cream. Heavy cream is separated from non-homogenized milk. When fresh milk is left to stand, the cream will rise to the top, where it can be skimmed off. This cream is further concentrated into the "heavy cream" or "whipping cream" that can then be whipped into whipped cream.
They are the same - can both be used to make whipped cream and can be used, when say making your own Alfredo Fettuccine Cheese Sauce. There is a difference though in light cream, half-n-half and heavy cream.
No, it isn't. Condensed milk is created when water (approximately 60%) is removed from cow's milk, and it typically has sugar added to it. Condensed milk usually contains at least 8% milk fat and 28% milk solids. Cream, on the other hand, is created when the fatty part of milk is skimmed from the top of the milk before it is homogenized. There are different types of cream, including: half-and-half, light cream (or coffee cream), light whipping cream, and heavy cream (or heavy whipping cream). The exact amount of milk fat in any one of these creams varies by country. In general, half-and-half cream will contain 10.5-18% milk fat, light cream will contain 18-30% milk fat, light whipping cream will contain 30-36% milk fat, and heavy cream will contain at least 36% milk fat.
Heavy whipping cream contains a very high percentage of fat, 36% or more. Homogenized "whole" milk has about 3% fat.
No. Milk is much thinner. If your recipe needs heavy whipping cream, it's probably because whatever you're making needs to be thick. If you just want to make whipped cream - milk doesn't whip - it just splatters around no matter how long you beat it. It will never get thick.
Using pasteurized non homogenized milk, skim the heavy cream off the top (about 1/2 inch above the separation line). Whip the cream cold in a well chilled bowl, then set for 30 minutes in the refrigerator, covered. Drain any excess liquid milk after it's set, then what is left is heavy whipping cream.
No way.
