Leche de poppy?
I thought leche was milk?
Tres leches is a cake with condensed milk, caramel, and whipped cream. So three dairy products. It’s delicious.
So quatro leches is just a fourth diary product. I’m thinking Oaxaca cheese.
Sounds tasty.
It is
La queres con toda la lecheee ehhhh chinguguencha!!!
Cuatro ~= Leches
Cuatro != Quatro
Is the fourth one my wife’s?
Tell me… how many leches you see.
But all of them were deceived
For another leches had been made…
*But they, all of them, deceived
Coquito I call Ron con 5 leches.
Leche evaporada, leche regular, leche condensada dulce (lechera), leche de coco, y crema.
Why have 3 or 4 when you can have 5 and rum?
Dumbass eastern european here - what is Tres Leches?
To be even more specific, it’s a Mexican dessert made of sponge cake, soaked in a mixture of three milks. Wet cake may not sound appetizing, but it’s absolutely delicious.
In addition to the other comment, it means “3 milks” literally.
A type of cake
Cuatro leches?? With this economy?
I think we can go a lot further.
Common milk producers:
Cow
Bison
Goat
Sheep
Horse
Yak
Reindeer
Common milk types:
Evaporated
Condensed
Powdered
Whole
2%
1%
Skim
By my count, we should be able to do at least cuarenta y nueve leches. Are we even trying?
Oat, soy, Almond?
excuse me but 2%, 1% and skim are bastard milks we don’t accept those here
Are you?
If we count whole, 2%, 1%, and skim as 4 distinct leches, what’s to stop us from creating a gradient of leches ranging from 0% to 3.25% milk fat?
Infinidad Leches
Wouldn’t that make one giant 1.625% milk?
That’s a good point. It seems to be an infinite series that should converge on one value of leche. If we solve for that, we should be able to make the ultimate torta de leche, which, paradoxically, is made with only one supreme leche.
I didn’t want to show my hand, but off the record, I’ve experimented with Norwegian beaver milk and Mongolian camel milk to achieve in vitro samples of sesenta y tres leches. Admittedly, it’s highly unstable and there have been casualties. Such is the price of progress.
What about condensed milk or powdered milk? Do they count as distinct leches as well?
Definitely dinstinct leches. Also plant milks: almond, oat, coconut. Coconut cream should also count IMO. Then there is condensed coconut milk as well.
I’d be suspicious of a tres leches cake made with coconut cream. Somehow, I don’t think it would taste right.
Why is it forbidden? It’s just like tres leches cake except it’s soaked in 4 milks.
Yes agreed!
Is three leches a thing outside of Mexico?
Loads of latin countries have tres leches. I prefer the Caribbean ones.
It’s common in the US, where there is a large Mexican population
It is not in my distant country, but it sounds like it should be
Yes, absolutely yes.
I’m happy to hear that.
They should be. I have never seen them anywhere in my neck of the woods, but I did find a vape juice that’s “Tres Leches” flavored. It’s pretty amazing.
I don’t want to yuck your yum.
