The condensed milk, Nestle's of course. It was only appropriate.
Filled a pot with enough water to cover the can and then some. Put it to boil:
Because my pot wasn't very deep, the water level went down quick and so I had to add a couple of cups every 15 minutes
And also to make sure it got cooked evenly, I gave the can a bit of a turn whenever I added water:
Two hours and 15 minutes later (I read instructions to cook it between 2 and 3 hours) turned off the heat and put the can under a steady stream of cold water
When cool to the touch, opened it
And VOILA! Manjar Blanco, everyone!
It turned out more solid than what my grandmother used to come out with, but hey, it was my first time and it tastes just as delicious!
I put it into a jar that seems to have been born for this purpose
Tan! Tan!
Now it's your turn!
voila!!!!!
