Equipment

  • Wide heavy-bottom non-stick pan
  • Fine strain.

Ingredients

  • 4 cups whole milk

Instructions

  • Add milk in a wide heavy-bottom, non-stick pan to prevent milk residue from sticking at the bottom of the pan.
  • Bring to a boil. Then, lower the heat to a simmer and cook while stirring continuously. Immediately break the film that forms up to allow water to evaporates quickly.
  • Simmer for about 1-½ hour or until the water from milk has evaporated and had reduced to about ⅓ of the milk's volume.
  • At this stage, the milk should be thick and looks creamy.
  • Sieve the milk using a fine strain.
  • Pour the milk into a mason jar and let it cool completely.
