Let's taco 'bout it!
- Sharon ended up using this awesome RecipeTin Eats recipe for the Red Velvet Cake she made for a family birthday. Lee made us the best clam chowder I've ever eaten by Sam Sifton published in the New York Times. There was bacon! And I'm a big fan of Bumblebee brand of clams.
- We are a fan of Costco, though Sharon had a funny
- Evaporated Milk: 60% of the water is removed, and because of the heating, it has a darker color and it's a little bit caramelized.
- Sweetened Condensed Milk: Same as evaporated milk, but with loads of sugar added. This adds to the caramelization and Maillard reaction that occurs.
- Powdered Milk: Where all the water content is removed completely through either spray drying or drum drying.
- We've talked about on this episode about how back in the day, people drank beer because it was safer than the water. Milk was not safe to drink either.
- Gail Borden patented his sweetened condensed milk. At one point in time, his company issued a press release, extolling the virtues of sweetened condensed milk and stating that Eagle brand was a health food.
- John Myenberg went off on his own and made evaporated milk (or unsweetened condensed milk) and commercially produced it first.
- Elbridge Amos Stuart is the founder of the Carnation, most famous for their evaporated milk, "Milk from Contented Cows".
- Osip Krichevsky, Russian doctor, invented powdered milk in 1802.
- Sharon used evaporated milk in this taco mac recipe from this episode, but you can use it in the ice cream found on the East coast that's chewier like we discussed in this episode. The evaporated milk acts as an emulsifier.
- You should try Jell-O with evaporated milk--it's a treat from Winter's past!
- We also help our Food Fight listener figure out what she can take as a leftovers at a family/friend party. It's like when our friend Leslie at So This is Love Podcast regretted that she didn't get some corn casserole that her friend made. We cooked our steaks in the Hamilton Beach sous vide, but Lee wasn't giving out his crab legs during Thanksgiving.
