Preparation

Remove the label from your can. You can use more cans if you'd like more dulce de leche, you're just limited by the space in your pot.
Place can(s) in a pot large enough to accommodate them. Fill with water so the cans are submerged by 3-5 cm and place over medium high heat.
As soon as the water comes to a boil, reduce to a simmer. Keep an occasional eye on the water level and refill as necessary.
2 hours of simmering will give you a light golden color, while 3 hours will yield a darker amber color with a richer flavor.
