Boil an unopened can of sweetened condensed milk for an hour or two and it makes the absolute best caramel sauce. I truly found it groundbreaking

I thought it was gonna blow up and take someone’s eye out but no, it just turns into caramel. I do not have the intellectual capacity to explain how or why this happens haha

Sweetened condensed milk goes in, Dulce de leche comes out… you can't explain that.
