Cajeta

It was actually a few months ago when I made this, but I thought I should share this yummy cajeta recipe. Cajeta is a mexican caramel, which is delicious on ice cream or in caramel rolls. Enjoy!

Ingredients:

1 quart fresh raw goat's milk
1 cup sugar
1/4 tsp. baking soda
1 1/2 Tbs. cornstarch




Begin by stirring the baking soda and cornstarch into a small amount of the milk, being sure to completely dissolve any lumps.




Pour the remainder of the milk into a pot, and add the sugar, stirring to dissolve. Finish by adding the baking soda mixture.




Bring to a boil over medium to medium-high heat, stirring constantly. Adjust the heat setting as needed to maintain a steady boil, without allowing the mixture to boil over. Continue stirring.





Now, it takes about 45 minutes to and hour of stirring. But, trust me, it is totally worth the wait!
