Homemade Dulce De Leche

-

Have you ever tasted Dulce De Leche? For those who haven't it is an extremely delectable type of caramel.

Have you ever tasted the Haagen Daz 'Dulce de Leche' ice -cream. (MMMM... My personal favorite)

Anyway. Make Dulce De Leche at home. Quick and I am sure easier than you would have thought. There is only 2 steps to making it. and all you need is a can of condensed milk.


Put your entire  Unopened can of condensed milk in a pressure pot filled 3/4 of the way with water. Completely close it. (Double checking that it is properly closed) and place it on the stove and cook  on high for about 20 minutes once the pressure starts.

(If you don't have a pressure pot. No problem just put it in a regular pot with water filled about 3/4 the way add a lid and cook it on high for about 1 hour)

Once that is done (If you used a pressure pot make sure to run the pot under cold water for about 5 minutes and MAKE SURE all the pressured steam is out before you open the pot) Either way you cooked it. Make sure you carefully remove the can from the water because the can will be extremely hot. Let it cool for about 5 minutes and then open it.

There you go, your 'Dulce De Leche' is ready to be devoured


Quick Steps (If you don't want to read every detail of how to do it. Above)
1 - put your entire unopened can into a pot with water
2 - Cook on high for about 20 min. (in pressure pot) or 1 hour (in regular pot)
Thats it. Your done

 Enjoy

Do you get a white ooze when cooking Salmon?

Does your salmon often look like this when you cook it? Tried baking, frying, poaching it but this stuff keeps coming out? Quick tip: when cooking salmon it is common for a white sort of cream to come oozing out all around the fish. Though it does not affect the taste. It can be found to be annoying and not pretty. But I found the trick to solving this problem, it happens because salmon is an oily fish, there are many oils within the fish itself. When cooking all of these oils come out in the form of this white ooze, normally from my own experience, when this happens the fish tends to become dry. Because now all of that moisture and oils meant to keep the fish succulent and juicy was just taken out. I found a solution to this problem. To keep all the oils locked in, you need to dry out the surface of the fish.  Before seasoning drizzle a little bit of vinegar on the fish and rub it in well. Continue your seasoning process. You will see that your problem will be resolved. ...

Well my mom and grandma were  both born in Furna - Brava, Cape Verde also known for its portuguese name as CaboVerde. A portuguese speaking Island off of the coast of West Africa.

These are 2 of my favorite Capeverdian foods along with others such as funginho, gigacida, and the list goes on. Cuscus is a breakfast food.

Ingredients 2 cups hominy corn 1/2 cup evaporated milk 1 1/2 cups coconut milk 1/2 cup water 3/4 cup condensed milk 1/2 cup cornstarch 1/2 tsp nutmeg 2 tsp vanilla extract pinch salt How to make it: Soak hominy corn in water for a few hours or preferably overnight (If you are making this in a rush and don't have time to presoak your hominy corn. No problem it will just take a little longer to cook because soaking softens the corn.) Put your hominy corn in a pot with about 2 1/2 to 3 cups water and boil on medium high heat for about 30 minutes or until they are very soft that you can cut it with a knife or poke it with a fork. and the water is nearly gone Lower your heat to medium low and take half of your coconut milk and mix in the cornstarch to it until smooth.
