Next time don’t use an aluminum pan without some kind of a saran wrap layer. The acid in the lime will dissolve some of the aluminum into the food and that’s really bad for you

[@Dragantraces]

This is what I just scrolled through all of these comments for. Aluminum and cast iron are those "reactive" metals recipes that call for "non-reactive" pans are trying to steer you away from. Lemons, limes, tomatoes, anything acidic can cause the reaction. It doesn't always happen. It depends on the strength of the acid and how long the food is in contact with the metal. But it can happen pretty darned quickly. And that reaction, while unlikely to cause you health issues, will make your delightful food taste worse than you can imagine. Using a barrier can be a solution, but barriers can be breached. Just use glass, stainless steel, or, if the dish is cold, like this one, plastic.

[@HelloKittysFriend418]

good to know!

[@drflash36]

Also, such reactive metals may give the resulting dish a sort of unpleasant metallic or 'tinny' flavor as well!

Over here in Ireland in the 90's, we had Bosco. A hand puppet with an actor and actress that...well...I hardly remember it...the show probably started in the 60's or 70's and then just kept going into the very early 90's.

These will be perfect for a quick and easy dessert. Thank you again. I also have the same name brand orange sqeezer. It was my mom's and given as a gift for her wedding shower gift in 1948. I will never replace this. It works much better than any of the new ones on the market. Mine is a different style. No metal cup is attached to it. It didn't come with one. Which is fine by us. We have plenty to use around our kitchen. We try to go naturally as much as possible in our home. Even make our own laundry soap, too. Lemons are great to use instead of bleach. I wipe out the stains in the kitchen sink. It also works on WHITES in your laundry. Blood stains, red sauce. So save the skin to reuse. They hold a couple of days in the frig. Also good for cleaning out garbage disposal by grinding it up. It makes smell fresh again. I'm not sure about the limes. I do believe they should work as well. Since the only difference is the flavor.

Acho que é porque ela usou "evaporated milk", ele é mais liquido do que o nosso creme de leite. Então ele ficou mais liquido e não permitiu as camadas de creme que a gente costuma deixar aqui no Brasil. O nosso creme de leite de lata ou de caixinha é mais grosso e com mais gordura, dá uma consistência diferente.

That was a very interesting lime burn story Emmy. Reminds me of when I was a teenager, renovating a house over the summer holidays with my carpenter dad. I got this weird rash, like large sections of my skin bloated out a few millimeters from the rest of my skin, as if there was a large pink rubber pad on my skin. I think it was the dusty environment that we where working and sleeping in, but Dad was unaffected. I have a lung condition that I think I was born with, and my Dad doesn't, despite his adult lifetime of construction work. My Dad's a tank. I'm guessing that maybe your husband's hands might have been rugged enough to have a protective layer of skin to help him withstand any juice that got on him. Gardeners, farmers and outdoor metal workers will know what I mean by a thicker protective layer of skin on your hands in dry weather. I'm guessing skin softening creams stop those thick layers of skin from forming, unless your working all day in hand skin thickening conditions.

Wow so good and it looks like a great light summer dessert!

[@franklinaparis4587]

Looks just like a mango-graham cake, minus the mangoes😁, which is a fave here in the Phils🇵🇭.. Awesomazing!! Lovelots Emmy!! ❤️❤️❤️

Maria biscuits are Marie biscuits, too. Maybe someone will try Marie biscuits in the refrigerator cakes now.

[@franklinaparis4587]

@@ojnab85 will definitely try that..

[@Durendal1]

OMG that's Superman II's juicer ! :p

[@llathem2212]

It’s like $450. Too pricey for most of us.

[@allencampbell3350]

now THAT is a deep track my friend.

[@freedomofspeech-qh7fe]

I luv how simple this is

[@angelahartzell92]

I LOVE carlota! My mother in law made this once and I couldn’t get enough of it!!! Best desert EVER!!!!

[@wescollins2981]

I'm starting to think maybe Emmy might have a stylist and makeup artist somewhere off camera...... I'm just kidding I know it's all natural

[@liriosogno6762]

Check out her morning routine she did a while ago. Her natural lip color is different but also beautiful

I'm extremely lactose intolerant. When I see condensed milk in a recipe I wanna cry because it's has the most lactose possible. I truly miss dairy😭

[@sandysani6045]

Hey, there was someone up in the comments above mentioning that they use soymilk to make their own sweetened condensed milk! They even added a link of how to make it. Hope this helps 🙏 Have a great day!

[@hollyjohnson9704]

You could try sweetened condensed coconut milk

[@werelemur1138]

LACTAID! My friend thought she might have IBS, but I offered her some of mine when we were having ice cream and now she spends 90% less time in the bathroom.

[@AvatarPrimus]

Hey, Rachel Boccio, there are Nestle lactose-free condensed and evaporated milk, and taste the same as regular ones, just delicious.

[@angelaho6921]

I’m lactose intolerant too. Just take some lactose pills before having dairy and you’re golden.

[@giselleluna1100]

I need a friend like you. Not dramatic or overly energetic, just chill and always making some cool food

[@Xanderful209]

This was one of my favorite videos by you. The pastry looked great and your pronunciation were on point :D I’m a Mexican person that has never tried or has heard of this but I’m definitely going to try it. Thanks Emmy :D

[@jimrobinson9979]

I’ve made a version of this from a Kenji Lopez-Alt recipe (lime juice, heavy cream, sweetened condensed milk, and ritz crackers). It turned out even better when I used graham crackers. I’ll have to see if I can find those cookies!

[@teridoster5840]

Most grocery stores have them in their international aisle now, or in the specialty cookie section 💜

[@margaretdeer1124]

Aldi's has them too! 45¢

[@Rose-jz6sx]

I've never heard clutch used how you're using it, does it just mean handy? Also this is the same concept as a lemon posset, which is just cream and lemon juice and it thickens up nicely.

[@Namastephie]

Rose I’m not trying to be rude, but you must be older! My son and his friends use this word all of the time! If I have pizza when they get to the house I hear, “ dude, your mom is so clutch!” 😂

[@Michelle-uu3fq]

@@Namastephie What does their age have to do with it? Not everyone here comes from the same place, culture, or uses slang terms from 2013. Oh, not to be rude but did you even answer her question tho?! 🤔🤣

[@RebeccaLMcGee]

It sort of means "right there when you need it" Like, say if your car broke down at the store and your friend happened to be there and could give you a jump, you'd say " Ooh, coming in clutch with the jumper cables!"

[@Namastephie]

Michelle well, Miss sunshine her age would have to do with it because as I stated it’s slang that kids use nowadays, and I would think judging by how she and Emmy used it and how I said the kids use it she would be able to understand she right because I assumed she was not an idiot. I also said I wasn’t being rude, which you clearly are. It was just a light hearted an example. Spread your misery elsewhere, please! We don’t do that here! Thanks!

[@jeezuschrist9887]

Nama Steph DONT pay attention to that! Not everyone is so miserable they assume everyone else’s intentions are bad! These days everyone loves to find something to be offended by, even when it has nothing to do with them! I understood what you meant, and apparently others did too! 😉

[@randommoonphase8602]

I made this today, it was so easy and so delicious! Thanks Emmy.

[@pamelamarcano-cooper2421]

I cannot wait to make this it looks absolutely yum yum delish😋😋

[@carlospc866]

In Mexico we say that this was the Empress Carlota's favorite dessert.

[@jogreer9814]

I want to see the after effects. "Mom, what did you make for dessert today?" "Carlota de Limon." "Is it good?" "You tell me..."

[@jamesglenn7990]

Hello 👋 how are you doing today

[@tthappyrock368]

I first had Maria cookies when I was in India. My daughter had to have them wherever we went! What a cool and perfect summer recipe to make with them! Greetings from Portland!

[@GolosinasArgentinas]

Looks delicious! And that juicer is brilliant.

[@pballen9745]

My dad used to make something like this with Lorna Doones and cool whip.

[@kaemadness]

You're calming my nerves while my friend tries to hook me up with his friend that's cuter than me.x Edit/Update: for everyone who wanted to know..... we had our date 3 days ago && he was way too feminine but he was really cute && today he told me he'd rather just be friends..... So if anyone knows a single guy in NJ that's at least 25, let me know.😏 x

[@howdidigethere3813]

You're gonna kill it Hun, you're beautiful!

[@kaemadness]

@@howdidigethere3813 Aww thank you.💕

[@lexica510]

You are hella cute and your friend's friend would be lucky to get a date with you. ❤️

[@maryangel4974]

Can you please go out with him and then come back and tell us all about it? Lol. I am so bored and have no life so I really want to hear about your experience!

[@graysroksan]

Any updates? How did it go?
