Kondensmilchevaporated milk
Milk with part of the water removed. Creamier and longer keeping than fresh milk, with no sugar added at all.
It goes into coffee and into Bircher muesli, which the original recipe calls for.
In Mexikoin Mexico
Leche evaporada, in every supermarket and corner shop. That is the right can.
Unopened it keeps for months. Once opened it belongs in the fridge.
Vorsichtcareful
Leche condensada azucarada usually sits on the same shelf in a similar can. It is heavily sweetened and thick as syrup.
Read the label: evaporada, not condensada. The sweetened one makes coffee taste sugary and pushes breakfast into pudding.
