I recently had the honor of being asked to participate in a special campaign sponsored by Carnation Evaporated Milk and Divine Caroline. Let me tell you that this is very timely, as I know right now, a lot (if not most) of you are stocking up on Carnation Evaporated Milk thanks to grocery store promotions and coupons currently available. Therefore, I am very excited to be sharing this information, as well as providing you with ideas and suggestions on how to use Carnation Evaporated milk.
What is Evaporated Milk?
If you didn’t know, evaporated milk is fresh milk that has undergone a special evaporation process to remove half of its water content. This is why when you open a can of Carnation Evaporated Milk you will find its contents are creamier and richer than just plain milk. In addition to this creamier consistency, the evaporation process has also concentrated the nutritional value of this milk. A 1/2 cup of Carnation Evaporated Milk has twice the calcium and protein than a 1/2 cup of whole milk. Plus, it has a third less of the fat that a 1/2 cup of half-and-half.
Creamiest Soup Without the Guilt
I make the easiest and creamiest Zucchini Soup you can make. I shared that Zucchini recipe with you last year. Last year, for Thanksgiving, I adapted the recipe to use in season Butternut Squash. This recipe is very easy and GOOD for you. Add it to your holiday menu and I promise you everyone at your dinner table will be amazed when you tell them the recipe is virtually fat free:
Easy Butternut Squash Soup
In a large pot,add two tbs olive oil and a quarter onion diced. Cook until translucent. To this add 8 cups of cubed butternut squash and 4 cups of chicken broth. Bring to a simmer and let cook until the butternut squash is soft and cooked through. Turn this into puree in the food processor. Return this to the pot and add one can of fat free Carnation Evaporated Milk. This makes the soup “creamy” while being “waist” friendly. Add salt and pepper to taste and cooked until warm.
Save $0.50 on Carnation Evaporated Milk
You can save 50 cents on your next purchase of two cans of Carnation Evaporated Milk when you use the coupon found in the newspaper inserts from September 27th. If you did not get the newspaper that day, you can still save 50 cents on two cans when you register with Nestle’s Very Best Baking website.

I use it for pies, makes a delicious difference!

I use evaporated milk whenever I need a little extra milk to cook with. If I’m short on regular milk, I use it until I can get to the store. It’s a great thing to have on hand.
I don’t if it’s considered my every day cooking, but it’s wonderful in homemade hot chocolate!
I use evaporated milk in a yummy cheesy potato soup that my family loves. I didn’t realize that I could sub it for half and half. I may try that for a few recipes and see how it works.

I add evaporated milk to my pumpkin/butternut squash puree I like to keep on hand in the freezer during the holidays. 1st I halve 1 butternut squash and quarter a small-medium sized pumpkin. Drizzle with a little maple syrup. Bake for about an hour on 350 degrees until the flesh is tender. Peel off skin & cut into cubes. Toss in a cuisinart or blender with a bit of honey, brown sugar, pumpkin pie spice (or whatever you have on hand – cinnamon, ginger, allspice, nutmeg, etc), a dash of salt, and some evaporated milk to make it creamier. Then I put 2 cups at a time in freezer bags. Great for desserts, breads, muffins – anything that calls for canned pumpkin!

The BEST holiday treat: Gingerbread and/or Pumpkin spice lattes:
To assemble the latte, you just add 1-2 tablespoons of DIY latte syrup to ½ cup of hot evaporated milk, and top with a shot of strong coffee or expresso. I made decaf coffee in a French coffee press instead of using espresso, and the result is pretty amazing.(our favortie syrups are gingerbread and pumpkin spice) Can be served hot or iced. Just as tasty as your local coffee shop for a fraction of the price! find the latte syrup recipes here: https://www.coffeesage.com/archives/2008/09/gingerbread-syrup-buy-it-or-make-it-yourself/
I use it in my pumpkin soup recipe. It’s very good.

I use it for my fantastic recipe for caramel dip. 1 can of Carnation, 1/2 c sugar, 1/2 corn syrup, and 1 tsp. vanilla. Stir in tall saucepan until hardball stage for caramel apples or until softball for caramel dip. This is always a hit, and the best part is that it is soooo easy. Awesome for all the apples now, but still great for pears and ice cream.

I hardly use evaporated milk except for making pies for Thanksgiving. But I’d like to learn to use them for everyday cooking. Thanks for some good tips on using it here. I have a funny story to share on using it for everyday use, though. I accidentally opened one can of evaporated milk thinking something else for cooking so I Uggg..ed and didn’t know what to do with it. Then my husband saw it and said he could use it really well. Well he did! He licked he fingers with full of it like Winnie-the-Pooh, dipped bread into it, and the next day finished it with spoons like a little boy. ha ha..!

I use Carnation Evap. Milk in pumpkin pie, in cream soups, and in recipes where I am making baked goods and homemade breads that call for milk. It is great to keep some on hand in case you are running out of 2% milk and you need to conserve that and still be able to whip up a quick dish or casserole.
I hope I win this Visa card!
