Happy Dulce de Leche Day 🇦🇷 tasteatlas.com/argentina In Argentina, dulce de leche can be breakfast, an afternoon snack, or the reason someone orders dessert. It begins with milk and sugar cooked slowly until thick, but it rarely stays in the jar: bakeries use it to fill alfajores and hold cake layers together, while a spoonful beside flan needs no further preparation. There’s a thicker kind made for pastry and a softer one you can spread straight onto toast. October 11 gives it an official day; Argentinians have been finding reasons to open a jar all year.
