DIY Steps To Make Whipped Cream, Heavy Cream And Evaporated Milk At Home

Hello lovelies, 

How are you all doing, I bring you good tidings on how to make your whipped cream, heavy cream and evaporated milk at home at a low cost.

I always try to learn a lot of new things on my own because of many reasons, below are some of the reasons;

1. Sometimes, packaged products are too expensive and as an event chef, there must be profit

2. If you are working on continental dishes, you might realise some key ingredients are just scarce or no where to be found.

3. You might be working at night and need to submit in the morning and then, you realise a very important ingredient is finished.

Why not make it if you have the materials on ground.

So, today, I’m gonna be teaching on how to quickly whip up a batches of heavy cream and whipping cream

 WHIPPED CREAM

This is used majorly when preparing sauces, stocks, baking and making desserts.

Whipped cream which is a milk containing 25-30% fat is also used as toppings fir cocktails, mocktails, smoothies.

MILK WITH AGAR AGAR OR GELATIN

(Agar agar is a non-poisonous edible algae used in the production of vegetarian gelatin substitute).
If you are not a vegetarian, just get your gelatin from the supermarket.

Making Process

  • Mix some powder with water and put on low heat until it dissolves.
  • Mix little into the cold milk and whisk for few minutes.
  • Then, put the remaining milk into it and place back onto the low heat. (Don’t allow to boil so it doesn’t cuddle).
  • Once it starts steaming, take off and refrigerate.
  • At 15 minutes interval, bring out and stir a few times for 1hour and and the milk becomes creamy.

HEAVY CREAM

This is majorly used in preparing sauces, fondue and thickening of sauces.

MILK AND CORN FLOUR

Milk- 50g
Cornflour – ½ teaspoon

You can use a mixer for this or a food processor.

Follow the procedure for the agar agar. Only that you do not need to be stirring at intervals in the refrigerator.

Once the mixture steams, take down and whip until becomes creamy.

EVAPORATED MILK

This is very easy to attain. You can get directly from the supermarket or drop your normal milk inside hot water under low heat for 45minutes.

However, it might be quite expensive if you need much cream.

Note that while stirring all the recipes, you can add flavour and sugar if required.
