Dulce De Leche

1. 1

   Place the evaporated milk and the condensed milk in your heaviest pot.

2. 2

   Add the cinnamon sticks, baking soda and a pinch of salt.

3. 3

   Stir steadily with a wooden spoon or heat-proof spatula so that the mixture does not stick to the bottom of the pan and burn.

4. 4

   Adjust the temperature so that the mixture stays just barely at a simmer.

5. 5

   Continue to stir until the mixture is making large bubbles, is very thick, and is a golden caramel color.

6. 6

   It's very important to stir constantly at this point to prevent burning.

7. 7

   Lift the spoon out of the pot and drizzle some of the caramel sauce over the surface.

8. 8

   If it forms a ribbon that does not disappear after 10 seconds or so, it is ready.

   Remove from heat and let cool for 10 minutes.
