PANELS FOR MILK

PANELS FOR MILK

Components:

  1. 480ml, or two cups, of whole milk
  2. 120ml, or half a cup, of sweetened condensed milk
  3. 50g, or 1/4 cup, of granulated sugar
  4. 30g or 1/4 cup cornstarch
  5. 5ml (1 tsp) vanilla extract
  6. 1.25g or 1/4 tsp salt
  7. 60g, or half a cup, of powdered milk (optional; adds depth of taste)
  8. 30g (2 tablespoons) unsalted butter
  9. 1/4 cup (30g) crushed nuts or toasted coconut flakes as a garnish (optional)

Directions:

Get the milk mixture ready.

  • Add the granulated sugar, sweetened condensed milk, and whole milk to a medium pot.
  • Stirring occasionally, cook over medium heat until the mixture is warm and the sugar has dissolved.

Make the mixture thicker:

  • Make a slurry out of the cornstarch and a few tablespoons of cold milk in a small bowl.
  • To avoid lumps, swirl the slurry into the warm milk mixture gradually while stirring continuously.
  • Keep cooking the mixture over medium heat, stirring frequently, until it thickens, which should take five to seven minutes.

Taste the Blend:

  • Take the pot off of the burner after it has thickened.
  • Add the butter, salt, vanilla essence, and powdered milk (if using) and stir until thoroughly mixed.

Form the Panels:

  • Spread the thickened milk mixture evenly to create a flat layer in a square or rectangle baking dish.
  • After letting it cool a little, place it in the refrigerator to set completely, which should take at least two hours.

Slice and Present:

  • Cut the mixture into “panels” that are square or rectangular once it has solidified.
  • Before serving, you can add crushed nuts or toasted coconut flakes as a garnish.
