  • In a cup, dissolve the baking soda in the water. Reserve.
  • Mix the milk with the sugar in a saucepan and put to a boil until it starts to boil. Then lower to medium heat and, continuing to move, add the water with the baking soda in a thin stream (be careful not to leave any bicarbonate in the bottom of the cup). Continue cooking and stirring with a spoon between 50-60 minutes or until the mixture that remains stuck to the back of the spoon adapts a clean candy color.
  • Pass the mixture to another container, add the vanilla essence, stir and let cool. Cover and refrigerate it.
