Cooking Questions - Condensed Milk & Polenta

Hi,

Just wondered if anyone can tell me what the German equivalent to condensed milk is? I think Evaporated is basically kaffeesahne but its the thick fussells one I'm wondering about (ie sweetened condensed). If you've used it I would be grateful to know the brand name so I can buy a tin!

Oooh, also anyone know the name for Polenta auf deutsch or do I just look for Polenta in the foreign section?

Cheers

I have bought thick sweetened condensed milk in a tube here. It ws called Milchmädchen or something similar. For Polenta look in a health food shop (Reformhaus) it's called Mais..? something. If it's packed in clear cellophane it's quite easy to see if it's the right thing!

Maisgries?

To be honest I thought it was just called "polenta" in german.

A couple of members on the Leo dictionary forum reckon it could be called Sterz or Haidensterz.

Thanks guys.

You've been lots of help

New I would get the answers to my questions here.

You can buy polenta in Kaisers and it is sold under the name polenta - in ours, it is in the same section as the Oriental foods. Failing that, you can buy it in the Turkish section of the supermarket or in the Turkish shops.

Thanks KazAV.

Have posted a recipe for Russian Caramels in the recipe section if anyone is interested? Its very easy and tastes delic!

Polenta is called polenta!
You can get it at DM Drugstore ("Alnatura" product),Bio-Supermarket´s,Reformhäuser or any good supermarket in the bio-food/health-section

Christiane,

Thanks for the info and reminding me about DM I had forgotten about looking there!
