Re: [CnD] Knowing when Milk is Boiled
Yes, I should have mentioned that boiling milk on medium low is better than medium high. You really do have to be patient with it. Getting in a hurry will make a big mess. It's true, you can feel the bubbling through the handle of the pan. The boiling point of milk is maybe a degree or so higher than the boiling point of water, so a thermometer would help if you have one. We had to boil our milk in Ecuador. This is how I learned how milk behaves when you boil it too fast and walk off and leave it. -Original Message- From: Cookinginthedark On Behalf Of Samuel Wilkins via Cookinginthedark Sent: Friday, August 7, 2020 3:30 PM To: cookinginthedark@acbradio.org Cc: Samuel Wilkins Subject: Re: [CnD] Knowing when Milk is Boiled Would using a talking thermometer help?

My experience is that you can feel it through the handle of the pan. To boil milk, you should keep the stove on medium low and just have a lot of patience.
