Take the wrapper off of a can of sweetened condensed milk and try to remove any of the glue left on the can (the glue can make your pot dirty, but that's about it). Put it in a large pot and cover it with at least 2 inches of water. Bring to a rolling boil and then reduce to a strong simmer for at least 2 hours. Longer will give you a darker colored, thicker caramel, while 2 hours will give you a tan and creamy caramel that spreads easily. | ||

It has much higher dairy content and lower fat content than the stove top caramel. I blogged about it when I made carrot cake. | ||

Do you have a specific variant of Ratatouille in mind? If you want an excuse to go back to ratatouille my personal favorite variation isConfit byladi. (link goes to the wikipedia for it) it's basicly a more "compossed" version of the dish and makes a great centerpiece to a vegatarian meal or just as an impresive side dish. This picticular variation was made popular as the "ratatouille" preperation seen in the movie "ratatouille". | ||

If it doesn't have queso, is it still quesadilla? ....that's like making cherry pie without any cherries. >< I'm going to re-dub it... "tostada acaramelizada" | ||

My only worry is the amount of skin (apple, grape) in the pico. | ||
