Evaporated milk

---

describes milk which has been subjected to a process of evaporation by which it is dehydrated. The use of negative pressure at a temperature of between 40 and 70 C allows for a dehydration process which is gentle on the milk. The main types of evaporated milk available are variations with a fat content of 7.5 and 10 percent or low-fat versions with 4 percent fat content. Sterilisation gives evaporated milk long durability.
