I like the taste of evaporated milk as a topping. I keep a can in
the pantry (and some canned apricots to pour it on) for powercut food.

My grandkids are very interested in food-play and imaginary
recipes, which I indulge if I think they'll eat the result. Last week
one of them claimed pirates eat "jellyfish pudding".

I had a packet of raspberry jelly in the pantry; dissolved the cubes in
boiled water, made up the volume with evap; when it was just about to
set, whisked it to fill it with airy honeycomb bubbles. Set it in a
shallow dish, chilled and turned it out. Jellyfish pudding; pirates
love it.

WARNING; Condensed milk (straight from the can, spread on hot toast)
is highly addictive.
