SOUTH OF THE BORDER ESSENTIALS: SWEET CAJETA SAUCE
I only have one photo for this recipe, and that is the final sauce. I did not intend to post it, but this stuff is so dang good I thought that I would. Served this for breakfast drizzled over crapes and fresh fruit... So yummy. The next time I make it, I will add more construction photos. So, you ready... Let's get into the kitchen.

Steps:
- PREP/PREPARE
- You will need a large saucepan, or a heavy-bottom pot to make this recipe.
- Gather your ingredients (mise en place).
- Cut the vanilla bean in half and scrap out the seeds.
- Add the vanilla bean, scraped seeds, milk, cream, sugar, and salt to a saucepan over medium heat.
- Whisk until the sugars dissolve, and it begins to warm.
- Whisk in the baking soda.
- Reduce heat to a low simmer and stir every few minutes for about 35 - 40 minutes.
- Do not scrape the sides, just stir the sauce.
- After about another 15 - 20 minutes the sauce will turn a golden brown, and your spatula leave a trail in the sauce when you pull it through.
- Use a mesh strainer to strain the sauce into a container, then stir in the rum.
- Rum can go bad, and it is my suggestion that you drink a shot or two; just to make sure that it is okay.
- PLATE/PRESENT
- Drizzle over pancakes, crepes, bananas or other fruit. Enjoy.
- Keep the faith, and keep cooking.
