Taste the Sweetness: Dulce de Leche

Enjoy a smidge of Argentina’s national icon—dulce de leche! It’s a rich confection made from milk and sugar that is cooked long and slow. The Maillard reaction produces a smooth, golden sweet beloved by the whole country! In fact, Argentines eat 3kg of dulce de leche annually.
