method for homemade skim milk recipe

  1. To make homemade skimmed milk, use a deep steel vessel and put 2 tablespoons of water at the base to prevent the full fat milk from burning when it is boiled. You can also use a deep non stick pan.
  2. Add the full fat milk also called buffalo milk. Note that you cannot use cow milk to make skim milk.
  3. Boil the full fat milk on a medium flame which will take about 8 to 10 minutes.
  4. Cool for at-least 2 to 3 hours.
  5. Put in the refrigerator for atleast 10 to 12 hours. This is what it looks like when you take the milk out of the fridge with a layer or malai or cream forming on top. This is the fat we are skimming off the milk.  
  6. Remove the cream or malai from the top of the milk. We are removing the fat off the milk to make skim milk.
  7. Boil the full fat milk again on a medium flame which will take about 8 to 10 minutes and then cool for 2 to 3 hours. Then put in the refrigerator for 10 to 12 hours. This is the second time we are doing this. Here is what the skim milk 2 looks like. We are calling it 2, as this is the second boiling of the full fat milk.
  8. Remove the cream or malai for the second time. We can see that the amount of malai has decreased as we make the skim milk. The fat of the milk has now come down significantly. Note that each time you remove the cream, store it in a air tight container and put it in the freezer to make white butter and ghee.
  9. Boil the full fat milk again on a medium flame which will take about 8 to 10 minutes and then cool for 2 to 3 hours. Then put in the refrigerator for 10 to 12 hours. This is the third time we are doing this. Here is what the skim milk 3 looks like. We are calling it 3, as this is the third boiling of the full fat milk.
  10. Remove the cream or malai from the top off the milk. We are removing the fat of the milk to make skim milk. You can see there is very little cream left. So take out all the cream.
  11. Your homemade skimmed milk is finally ready after three steps of boiling and removing the cream or malai. 
  12. Skimmed milk. Use as required.

Tarla Dalal    Dear Hania, to make skimmed milk at home this procedure has to be followed. Alternatively, you can buy readymade skimmed milk. Thank you for the feedback. Please keep sharing your feedback on recipes and articles you love.

Tarla Dalal    You can try the same procedure with cow''s milk, but the quantity of malai or cream on top after boiling will be less. You may not require to boil milk 3rd time to skim off the fat. Please try and share your feedback with us.

This homemade skim milk still has fat? Not zero fat? Because it''s in the nut.val

Tarla Dalal    Dear Tessie, You are correct. The fat count is high in the nutritive value table. The reason is that the calculation as shown in this recipe is based on its ingredient - full fat milk. However since the process of skimming is done at home as shown in this recipe, it is difficult to find out the fat content of final skim milk. The ready made skim available in the market has 0.2 g of fat in a cup (200 ml). The estimated fat content of this homemade skim milk can be estimated to be slightly higher than ready made skim milk.
