Hi Supermoms,
'Dulce de leche'. What does this mean? Very simple. It means ' Sweet Milk' in Spanish. Milk that is caramalised and tastes like candy is called as the Dulce de leche.
Have you tasted 'Banofee Pie'or ' Palgova' ? No problem.if you haven't tasted it yet ..infact you are lucky. You are going to taste one of the most delicious 'toffee' EVER!!!!
If you are going to caramalise milk in the traditional way, it will take a minimum of 2 to 3 hours or more, depending upon the quantity of milk that you want to cook. I have been using this recipe for the last couple of years and it works like a charm. And the best part is it is going to take less than 30 minutes of cook .
No compromise on taste !!!
