Carnitas aren't the only savory meat dish that can be enhanced with a liberal application of sweetened condensed milk. In Vietnam, a traditional Lunar New Year food called thịt kho tàu (caramelized pork with eggs) can be made with this ingredient while it can also be combined with coconut milk, soy sauce, and spices for a tasty satay marinade. Pork slices marinated in a similar mixture can also be combined with cucumbers for a Thai-style salad.
Not all condensed milk-meat dishes are strongly tied to Asian or Latin American cuisines, though. It can also be used to moisten a meatloaf or thicken chicken and dumplings. It's also an important ingredient in a Middle Eastern-inspired Canadian specialty called the Halifax or Maritime donair. The sandwich itself is made of seasoned ground beef, tomatoes, lettuce, and onions stuffed inside a pita, while the sauce is made from sweetened condensed milk mixed with white vinegar and garlic powder. Dubious about the flavor? Perhaps you shouldn't be. The donair kebab, sweet sauce and all, is such a favorite in its native Nova Scotia that it was named Halifax's official food in 2015.
