Instructions

INSTRUCTIONS

  • Take a pressure cooker large enough to hold your condensed milk can sideways and fill enough water to submerge the can plus atleast an inch more above the can.
  • Close the lid, and put the cooker on a medium-high flame. Don’t put the whistle yet. As soon as you see the steam start to escape from the vent, put on the whistle.
  • After ONE whistle, reduce the flame to the lowest level, and let it simmer for 20-25 minutes.
  • If you want your DDL thicker you need to cook longer – between 25-30 minutes and if you want it a little thinner, then you need to cook it for a shorter time 20-25 minutes.
  • Turn off the flame, and let the pressure drop on it’s own. Do not touch the cooker or move it during this period. I usually wait for about 2-3 hours before opening the cooker. Once cool, remove the lid, take out the can and let the can cool again for 30-60 minutes.
  •  Open the can and enjoy your DDL. Transfer to an airtight container and store for upto 2 weeks.
