SUSPIRO DE LIMEñA RECIPE

Steps:

• Put the two types of milk in a saucepan. If you use full fat milk instead of sweetened condensed milk try adding some more sugar to the final mix to bring up the sweetness. Simmer the milks on a very low heat.
• Caramelising the milk can take a long time, up to an hour or more. Try for 40-45 minutes. An alternative method is to boil the condensed milk in the can for the same amount of time. It doesn't take as much effort to keep an eye on the milk. Simmering the milk in a saucepan will definitely produce a better flavour however.
• Whip the egg yolks and then add the caremalizing hot milks to the bowl. Beat thoroughly for about 20 seconds and then pour everything back into the saucepan with the vanilla. This makes the famous Dulce de Leche as it's known in many Spanish speaking countries. In Peru they call it manjar blanco. You might also see manjar blanco referred to as blancmange.
• Next mix the port/pisco with the sugar and cook (bringing to the boil) in a saucepan until the mix becomes quite thick.
• Beat egg whites in a separate bowl.
• Add this sticky syrup to the egg whites and beat with a spoon until it starts to look like whipped cream.
• Add mix of sugar and egg white to the top of the manjar blanco in cups or bowls.

Steps:

• Whisk together the sweetened condensed milk, evaporated milk, vanilla, and egg yolks in a saucepan. Place over medium-low heat and gently cook until the mixture thickens, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon, about 30 minutes. Pour into a heatproof serving dish and set aside.
• Whip the egg whites with confectioners' sugar to stiff peaks (see Editor's Note). Spread meringue on top of milk mixture. Refrigerate until cold, about 3 hours. Sprinkle with cinnamon before serving, if desired.

Steps:

• Prepare the caramel by boiling water and sugar over low heat, when it starts making thick, sticky bubbles, it has reached a caramel consistency. It'll be a light yellow color. Don't let it burn! (Careful this kind of caramel burns like melted plastic).
• While the caramel cooks, in a glass bowl whisk the egg whites at high speed until it forms peaks.
• Slowly add the powdered sugar until it is all mixed.
• Continue to whisk and add the salt and cream of tartar.
• Very slowly add the caramel into the meringue until it is all well mixed.

Steps:

• In a saucepan over low heat, stir together the evaporated milk and 2 cups of sugar. Cook over low heat, stirring occasionally, until the mixture is thick enough for you to see the bottom of the pan when you stir, about 25 minutes.
• Slowly stir in the sweetened condensed milk, pouring in a very thin stream. Pour a small amount of the hot milk mixture into the egg yolks, and then slowly pour back into the saucepan in a thin stream while stirring vigorously. Mix in the vanilla. Run the mixture through a sieve or strainer, into individual ramekins or heatproof custard cups. Set aside.
• In a separate saucepan, stir together 1 cup of sugar and water. Bring to a boil, and cook until the mixture can spin a thin brittle thread off the spoon. Remove from the heat. In a large bowl, whip egg whites with an electric mixer until they can hold a stiff peak. Drizzle in the sugar syrup while whipping on low speed until fully incorporated. Then, mix on medium speed until the meringue is cold. This will prevent it from separating. Spoon onto the cups of custard to serve, and top with a light dusting of ground cinnamon.
