We grew up (in Mumbai) with visitors from Argentina bringing us jumbo sized cans of dulce de leche. It was in our pantry, just as honey is in almost everyone’s home! And so it went atop everything- every dessert ever. Crepes on Sunday morning was our favorite. Lately I roll a crepe with dulce de leche filling, sprinkle sugar on top and caramalized it with a blow torch, serve with sliced bananas. Simple heaven.

Since most indian house-holds have a pressure cooker, I find it much easier to make use of it for my dulce de leche. As it can be made well in advance, I choose to make 2-3 at a time. Remove the plastic lid of the condensed tin can and place them in the pressure cooker. Pour water halfway up so that the cans are mostly covered in water. Clamp on the lid and weight. Keep on a high flame till the first whistle and then lower the heat. After 35 minutes, yummy, gooey Dulche de leche!!

I tried preparing this, however the contents turned dark brown and tasted bitter, just like how sugar tastes when it is heated on a pan. where did I go wrong?

Hi,
The best Dulce de Leche. Thanks a lot. Impressed my family by using them on bread pudding. Just spread it on the bread with the usual nuts and raisins and it tastes so divine. Thank you so much. Loved the recipes on your site. Got a few list lined up for trial. Lets see how it turns out.
Keep up the great work.
Warm Regards
Suchi
