Ingredients

  • 6 cups whole milk
  • 1 1/2 cups sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon coarse salt
  • 3/4 teaspoon baking soda

Directions

In a medium saucepan, bring milk, sugar, and salt to a simmer over medium. Remove from heat and whisk in baking soda (mixture will foam). Return to a simmer and cook over low, stirring occasionally and skimming off any foam, until sauce is deep golden brown and lightly coats a spoon, 45 minutes to 1 hour. Pour through a fine-mesh sieve into a heatproof bowl. To store, let cool and refrigerate in an airtight container, up to 2 weeks.

                Easy dulce de Leche:  Pour one can of sweetened condensed milk, into the top of a double boiler. Heat for 1-2 hours depending upon how thick you like.  The top of the double boiler should be touching the water as it boils.  Stir occasionally to prevent burning.  It will thicken upon cooling, too.

                you should definitely make this portion of the recipe the night before. And, don't start at 10pm. this is something that needs to happen early on in the day as this takes a fair amount of time and a watchful eye as the milk curdles quickly. I made last year for thanksgiving and i swore to myself that the dulce de leche part was going to be store bought. But, I was suckered into the real deal by other family members.

                The timing worked fine for me - about 45 min. I added 2 TBSP pure maple syrup to bring out the fall flavors for the pumpkin bread pudding.

                The time is WAY off! It took me over three hours to get it to the right consistency. It tastes absolutely wonderful, but it is not a quick recipe by any means. Wish I had known, then I wouldn't have started it at 10pm!

                This was delicious and easy. The only problem was the cook time. I had to double it to about 3.5 hours to get the right color and consistency, but it was wonderful!
