Condensed milk is something that is found in pantries throughout the world. While it’s always been popular to have on hand, many people don’t know exactly how to use this sweet, thick dairy product outside of specific recipes.
Here are three uses for condensed milk that you might’ve never imagined!
Coconut Marinade for Meat Dishes
If you love coconut, condensed milk is going to become your best friend. Why? Condensed milk pairs fantastically with coconut, creating a rich and creamy base for desserts and even meat marinades! If you like pork, a fantastic way to make a rich and delicious dish is to marinate it in a coconut marinade that incorporates condensed milk.
Coffee Flavor Enhancer
Now, this might not be something you want to do every day for the sake of your own health, but there’s nothing wrong with adding condensed milk to coffee from time to time. It makes it sweet, sure, but it really is great when combined with iced cold brew java for a treat.
Dulce de Leche
This Latin American treat is usually prepared with milk and sugar, but you can also do it with condensed milk. Simply heat it on a stovetop and allow it to boil for a couple of hours and you’ll make a delicious sauce that can be used to top cakes or ice cream.
