How to Make Dulce The Leche Milk Jam
- Place the can of sweetened condensed milk upright inside a large pot fitted with a steaming rack.
- Carefully add enough water to completely submerge the can by at least 1-2 inches.
- Bring the water to a gentle simmer over medium-low heat. Maintain a consistent simmer for 4 hours, ensuring the can remains fully submerged in water at all times. Adding more boiling water as needed. **Failure to keep the can submerged may result in an explosion.**
- Carefully remove the pot from the heat and allow the can to cool completely in the water bath for at least 4-6 hours, or preferably overnight. This slow cooling prevents the dulce de leche from seizing.
- Once completely cool, carefully open the can (be cautious, it might be pressurized). The dulce de leche will be a rich, golden-brown color.
- Serve your homemade Dulce de Leche Milk Jam over flan, as a filling for crepes, cakes, or simply enjoy it by the spoonful! Spread it on croissants, rolls, or toast for a decadent breakfast treat!
