It depends on the recipe but, most of the time, yes you can but it won't be as rich or creamy as it would with whole. If you don't want as much fat but similar creaminess, you could always use half and half.

No. 2 percent milk is much too thin and lacks the fat and consistency needed to substitute for sour cream in any recipe. Low-Fat Yogurt would be a better substitute for sour cream.

Half and half substitute?

If you do not have half and half you can substitute with one of two things. First you can use milk, though this will not be nearly as creamy and can effect both the taste and texture of what you are making. Alternatively, if you have heavy cream you can mix the cream with low-fat milk for homemade half and half.

You can, but the consistency will be changed. It will not be as creamy, and the flavor will be lighter. You can thicken it up a bit by adding a tablespoon of cornstarch for each 12 ounces of milk used.


Can you use evaporated milk instead of milk?

Yes you can :) Substitute half water and half evaporated milk to replace the amount of real milk the recipe called for. So if the recipe called for 1 cup milk you would substitute a 1/2 cup water and a 1/2 cup evaporated milk.
