Factual Questions RancidYakButterTeaParty February 14, 2005, 3:12am 1 A great flavor of ice cream to be sure, but I always feel unsure telling someone it is one of my favorites, because I have no idea how it is pronounced. Please eliminate my ignorance so that I may spread the good news about this heavenly treat. Vision_of_Love February 14, 2005, 3:15am 2 I don’t know, but allow me to make a guess. DOOL-chay duh LEH-chay. Well? Dark_Side_of_the_Floyd February 14, 2005, 3:22am 3 DOOL-say day LEH-CHAY. Dark_Side_of_the_Floyd February 14, 2005, 3:23am 4 Vision of Love’s is probably more… Italian, I suppose. I answered my first GQ question! Colibri February 14, 2005, 3:26am 5 Vision of Love: I don’t know, but allow me to make a guess. DOOL-chay duh LEH-chay. Well? Wrong. Why would you want to guess if you don’t know? Approximately, DOOL-say day LAY-chay. Vision_of_Love February 14, 2005, 3:36am 6 Colibri: Wrong. Why would you want to guess if you don’t know? Approximately, DOOL-say day LAY-chay. I thought I had a good chance at getting it right. I should also mention that for a minute, I thought I was in Cafe Society. Abbie_Carmichael February 14, 2005, 3:55am 7 DOOL-say day LEH-che WeRSauron February 14, 2005, 4:33am 8 If you want it in Castillian style, it would be DOOL-theh dheh LEH-cheh (“th” as in “thing,” “dh” as the “th” in “then”). In Italian, “ch” is pronounced as “k.” “Chiaro” would be pronounced as “kyah-roh” or “kee-ah-roh” or something in between. Having “c” before “e” or “i” renders “c” as “ch” in English, therefore an “h” is added as a buffer between “c” and the vowel to preserve the “k” sound. So, according to Italian pronunciation, “dulce de leche” would be “DOOL-cheh deh LEH-keh.” WRS Biffy_the_Elephant_Shrew February 14, 2005, 4:48am 9 Except that in Italian it would be Dólce di Latte. Doobieous February 14, 2005, 7:18am 10 Vision of Love: I don’t know, but allow me to make a guess. DOOL-chay duh LEH-chay. Well? It’s not Italian, it is Spanish, and actually it’s a popular confection in Mexico. So, it is: /'dulse De 'letSe/ OR /'dulTe De 'letSe/ or roughly: DOOL-seh theh LEH-cheh OR DOOL-theh theh LEH-cheh the “theh”'s initial th is pronounced as in “the” Bambi_Hassenpfeffer February 14, 2005, 7:57am 11 I pronounce it like this, but I’m not very good at spoken Spanish.

Please eliminate my ignorance so that I may spread the good news about this heavenly treat. Oh, you´ve found the pure, destilled joy of Dulce the Leche, the desideratum of goodness and sweetness. A bakery in front of my work makes some wicked corissants filled with it. By the way, it´s under dispute whether the thing was invented here or in Argentina, the matter has sparked some heated debates.

LouisB February 14, 2005, 12:46pm 14 Dulce De Leche Con Mango is even better. Colibri February 14, 2005, 1:35pm 15 RancidYakButterTeaParty: Could you give the translation? Dulce = sweet, leche = milk. Literally, a sweet made of milk. Ale February 14, 2005, 10:05pm 16 Colibri: Dulce = sweet, leche = milk. Literally, a sweet made of milk. Yes, Milk Sweet, and it´s quite easy, although time consuming to do. First method, traditional style: 3 liters of whole milk 800 grames of sugar a pinch or two of vanilla, maybe more depending on your preferences 1 tablespoon of bicarbonate Dump all that on a pot and boil it to medium heath stirring it constantly, after about three hours it should have it´s characteristic brown colour and consistency; take samples off the pot and let them cool to see if it´s OK. The modern way: Get a can of condensed milk, take the label off and put it to boil inside a pot full of water (you may want not to close the can hermetically, let´s say that milk sweet is not a good kitchen paint) As I said, put it to heat and when the water boils reduce the flame a bit to kep it boiling steadly, let it cook for an hour and it should be done. I should point out that I actually never tried this myself; being much easier to simply walk to the supermarket and buing the thing. But I guess it could be handy to those unfortunate people that don´t have access to it. Bad_News_Baboon February 14, 2005, 11:24pm 17 WeRSauron: If you want it in Castillian style, it would be DOOL-theh dheh LEH-cheh (“th” as in “thing,” “dh” as the “th” in “then”). Is Dulce de Leche a Spanish treat as well? Being of Mexican heritege, I am only familiar with it being a Mexican treat. Pronouncing it with the Castillian ‘theh’ sounds as wrong to my ears as does the Italian rendition Vision of Love gave us! Cowgirl_Jules February 14, 2005, 11:36pm 18 My mother, who was born in Argentina where this is a major favorite, pronounces it DOOL-say deh LAY-chay. It’s comfort food from my childhood. She always made it the condensed milk way, but I’ve found that the Smucker’s version in the ice cream toppings section is good enough to replace it without the labor.

I should point out that I actually never tried this myself… I have an easy and (for me, so far) fool-proof method. Put the peeled can of sweetened condensed milk in a crock pot, cover with water, set it on low, and go to work or to bed. Eight hours later, you will have a can of something that is obscenely gooey and delicious. I have also put a can in a crock pot with the soup that’s cooking, making dinner and dessert at the same time. I’ve never had a can blow up on me. Mmmmm. I love the stuff. I like it to spread it on chunks of pineapple. And I can get sweetened condensed for, like, $0.97 per can. WeRSauron February 15, 2005, 2:14am 20 Well, duh! It’s pronounced “duhl-see day leysh”!
