Best Answer

Low fat milk can be substituted for evaporated milk, but the final product will be noticeably less rich and lacking in flavor. A better substitute would be fat-free evaporated milk, also called evaporated skim milk.

In some cases, it is an acceptable substitute. For example, when making coffee, many people can tell the difference between half-n-half and evaporated milk but do not mind the substitution. In baking, however, it is not a good idea to substitute half-n-half for evaporated milk unless the instructions state that it is acceptable.

You can just use milk, or add water. The volume of liquid (water+milk) should be equal to the total called for in the recipe.

Can low fat milk replace fresh milk in cooking?

Low fat milk can replace other types of milk in most recipes (the exceptions being condensed milk and evaporated milk), however you shouldn't expect it to be as creamy or thick as it otherwise would be. Low fat milk, of course, doesn't have the same fat content, and the fat is what imbues the recipe with flavor. If you are going to use low fat milk, I would suggest making sure you pump up the flavor in other ways, like using more spices or more flavorful secondary ingredients.


Is evaporated milk safe to drink?

Evaporated milk is very safe to drink. Some people claim it has a different flavor than fresh milk. It comes in whole, low-fat, and no-fat varieties, so you can use something similar to what you drink in fresh milk. It has about 60% of the water removed from it, so most people do one can of evaporated milk and add a can of water to it to bring it to the consistency of fresh milk.
