| How To Cook: |
|
|
1. In a 2-quart saucepan, bring the condensed milk, fresh milk and soda just to the boil over high heat, stirring constantly. Immediately remove the pan from the heat.
|
2. Combine the sugar and water in a heavy 4- to 5-quart saucepan and cook them over low heat, stirring constantly, until the sugar dissolves. Pour in the hot milk and stir well.
|
3. Cook over low heat for 1 hour and 15 minutes, maintaining a low simmer and stirring occasionally. Watch carefully for any sign of burning and regulate the heat accordingly. The mixture will become an amber-colored pudding.
|
4. Serve the pudding at room temperature, or refrigerate it and serve it chilled.
