that sigh when she puts the final pie in the fridge was HILARIOUS! I can totally relate :P

[thedjsam]

I made this pie with my sister and it was perfect. Everyone should try this pie, its so easy to make and it really tastes delicious. Its not overly sweet like most desserts you see nowadays. You can also buy cans of dulce de leche at the grocery store.

What's up with the annoying music that's playing while the chef is explaining what she's doing? Turn that shit off.

Dulce de leche was created in argentina, the story says that a woman was heating sweatwened milk and she forgot te milk over the stove and a few hours later boom fucking dulce de leche was created

[spiousas]

Since that's not the traditional way to make "dulce de leche", it was not boiling a can of condensed milk how it was invented. Nevetheles, the serendipitous nature of the discovery is in part real. Even when there is not a confirmed story of how "dulce de leche" was invented/discovered, all of them (two in Argentina and one in Chile as far as I know) refer to a black slave forgetting the sweet milk over the fire for too long during the colonial times.

Here in Argentina it's extremely popular, one could say that is like our Marmite if Marmite didn't smell like rotten fish (joking).

I'm happy you enjoyed it and yes, "bananas y dulce de leche" are a heavenly combo.

I'm sorry, couldn't understand or hear about the cream part. Is it just whipped cream with vanilla bean?

[MissBelieberFever]

Dulce de leche Is argentinian!! The best

[leolldankology]

I'll live in disappointment until I eat this pie. >:(

[MalakianMS]

She's been drooling over the pie all the video and you don't show her eating the slice? That's cruelty, leaving us without that sweet closure :P

[sheteg]

3 hours is plenty. It will be thick and creamy.

[kpkp]

Excuse me, but did you say boil for 5 HRS?!

[iansharp]

Horrible intrusive "music". What possible purpose does it serve? Isn't the content of your film interesting enough on it's own?

[pauloamw]

Just buy some good dulce de leche and save the outrageous five-hour job.

[alexandresobreiramartins]

No no no. Use salted caramel, for god's sake! Not cheap toffee made of condensed milk! Your pie will be sickeningly sweet, if you use that shit.
