Dulce de Gatas (Caramel Milk)

Simple and sweet sauce to make... perfect as a spread for sweet breads or as a dip for crunchy fruits like apples and pears. Great for gift-giving too!




1-2-3

1. Submerge a can of condensed milk (or as much cans the pot can hold) and let it lie on its side under water. Bring to a boil then set fire at lowest setting and let it simmer for 1 1/2 to 2 hours. Make sure the can stays submerged, check every 30 mins to make sure the water level is above the can.

Tip: Since it is gas-consuming (simmering for 2 hours) might as well get a big pot to accommodate 2-3 cans. Do not pile them over each other though.


2. Allow to cool thoroughly before opening.

3. Store in ref or in a cupboard for up to 2 weeks.
