Depends on what you're making. I routinely use evaporated milk (not condensed, which is sweetened) as a base for cheese sauces for pasta, to reduce the fat content somewhat. Usually I heat 1 T olive oil, mix in 1 T flour, and add 1 cup evaporated milk (the flour thickens it a little), then mix in cheese (e.g., gorgonzola), heat till the cheese is melted, add other ingredients (sauteed mushrooms, roasted red peppers, garlic, etc.), and serve over pasta. The evaporated milk has a slightly cooked taste to it, but in a strongly flavored dish it doesn't matter too much.

∙ 14y agoAs long as you sweeten it up, I guess you could. There is a major consistency difference between the two so you might have to add corn starch (just a little bit!) to get the consistency closer.

When cooking with normal milk it will curdle. Always use evaporated milk in recipe when possible. Evaorated milk can be used instead of cream as it is lower in fat. however if substituting evaporated milk with regular milk, remember that evap milk is called evap milk for a reason. for 1 Cup of regular milk, you must only use 1/2 Cup of evap milk and 1/2 Cup of water. mix the 2 together and it should work in the recipe. i have never had a problem with this.

How many calcium does a flan have?
It varies depending on the recipe. Some use more eggs, some use more milk. Some use milk and cream, some use evaporated milk, some use condensed milk, some use half-and-half. A (8 oz) cup of milk is thought to have about 300mg, cream about 160mg, while condensed milk about 869mg, and evaporated milk about 658mg. So a Mexican flan with (14oz) condensed and (26oz) evaporated milk would have about 3659mg in the whole thing. If you slice it into 10 pieces, each would have ~366mg.
Can you use evaporated milk instead of regular milk in hamburger helper?
Evaporated milk doesn't have any added sugar - that's condensed milk. Evaporated milk is just milk that's had most of the water removed (ie, evaporated out by heating). So, whilst it will taste sweeter than ordinary milk, it's because it's more 'concentrated', not because it's had any sugar added. When mixed with an equal amount of water, evaporated milk can be substituted for fresh milk in baking or other recipes.

Can I use evaporatd milk instead of cream in asparagus soup?
Yes, add it a little a at time until you get the desired taste, you will not need as much as fresh cream, and you will find the taste is slightly different, but it will work.Yes, evaporated milk can be used instead of cream in asparagus soup. Evaporated milk is exactly what its name implies: milk that has the water evaporated. Its flavor is rich and has strong dairy notes, much like heavy cream. The objective to adding cream in a soup is both for flavor and a creamy and velvety consistency. Evaporated milk has both of those same attributes. Although your soup may be ever so slightly thinner than it would be if using heavy cream, it will most definitely have better flavor than if substituting with regular milk or water. I do suggest heating the evaporated milk slowly until it simmers, then add it to your soup. This will help some of the natural sugars to develop a rich flavor and will help to keep your soup warm at the same time.
Can you use evaporated milk in place of condensed?
