recipe for lemon meringue pie with condensed milk and evaporated milk

what is better in lemon meringue pie, condensed milk or evaporated milk?


When it comes to making a lemon meringue pie, the preferred choice between condensed milk and evaporated milk can vary. Both types of milk can be used to create a delicious pie, but they offer slightly different results.

Condensed milk, which is sweetened and thick, can add a creamy and rich texture to the filling of the pie. It can also enhance the sweetness of the lemon filling, resulting in a more indulgent and dessert-like taste [4].

On the other hand, evaporated milk is unsweetened and thinner in consistency. It can contribute to a lighter and less sweet filling, allowing the tanginess of the lemons to shine through more prominently [2]. Evaporated milk can also help create a smoother and silkier texture in the pie [1].

Ultimately, the choice between condensed milk and evaporated milk depends on personal preference. If you prefer a sweeter and creamier lemon meringue pie, condensed milk would be the way to go. However, if you prefer a lighter and tangier pie, evaporated milk might be the better choice [6]. You can experiment with both options to see which one suits your taste buds best [5].

Happy baking, and enjoy your lemon meringue pie! [3]
