Longevity Sweetened Condensed Milk is the true culinary secret behind many Asian desserts. Thanks to the process of water evaporation and its high sugar content, the milk achieves its characteristic, incredibly thick and silky texture that is unmatched. This consistency makes it indispensable when both sweetness and creaminess are required.
In the kitchen of the Philippines, this product is almost sacred. It is used for:
- Halo-Halo: As a thick topping that drips over crushed ice and a mixture of fruits.
- Leche Flan: It is the base for the Filipino caramel custard, ensuring its unique, rich structure.
- Sweet Desserts: An addition to Buko Pandan (coconut jelly and cream dessert) and various tarts and cakes.
Its versatility extends beyond the Philippines – it is the ideal element for creating authentic Vietnamese Iced Coffee (Cà Phê Sữa Đá), where its sweetness balances the bitter taste of strong coffee. It can also be used as a ready-made topping for ice cream, pancakes, waffles, or even to thicken sweet and sour sauces to give them depth and sheen.
In terms of nutritional value, it is a high-protein (9.6g/100 ml) product, providing a solid energy boost. Longevity is a guarantee of taste and quality you can trust. You can store the 397 g can in your pantry, always having the key to exotic sweetness at hand.
