To use evaporated milk as whole milk, it should be diluted in the proportion of one cup of evaporated milk to two and one-quarter cups of water. This will give a product averaging a rich whole milk.

VARIETY OF USES

Evaporated milk is most satisfactory for cream soups; for sauces for vegetables, fish and meats. Whipped for puddings (undiluted). Used diluted, it gives splendid results in cakes, muffins, biscuits and other flour mixtures. As cream for coffee, cocoa and chocolate, cereals, fruits and puddings it adds food value and flavor. As a beverage diluted with water or for eggnog it is just as satisfactory as ordinary milk for children. For ice creams and custards, cream candies and fudge it adds a smoothness and creaminess.
