Khailmag refers to Mongolia's caramelized Urum (clotted cream ). Khailmag is prepared by heating the Urum in a pan. The fat liquifies and separates from the solid components. Add sugar and flour, and mix on the stove to create a heavy pap. Scoop the liquid fat away and then serve the finished Khailmag in a bowl. Khailmag is served and eaten with a small spoon like a creme or a pudding. It tastes similar to Creme Brulee, however, it is not as smooth Creme Brulee, Khailmag is thicker and has a rougher texture . The scooped liquid fat which is called "Shar Tos" or yellow butter may be used as a fuel for the candles on the altar in the yurt. Sometimes it may also be used for frying Khuushuur to honor a special guest, or for roasting the flour that goes into the rice tea. Khuushuur is a deep-fried large dough pockets filled with minced meat.

Krispy Kreme had been a popular doughnut chain in the South since 1937, but remained unknown to the rest of United States until about 1996. That was when the first Krispy Kreme popped up in New York City, on West 23rd Street.
Personal Note: I first heard of Krispy Kreme so late already when I was already in Germany in 2007. I watched a Filipino show and the rich moderator said she got a box of Krispy Kreme from America via fast cargo mail and described the doughnuts soooo good. I finally able to taste this delicious product in 2010 when I spend my first vacation in the Philippines. There is no Krispy Kreme in Germany and I wish one day they will reach here. It is really a good product especially the simplest flavor they have.
