Step by Step Method
Step 1
To make the caramel in a pan add both milks and heat to boiling and then simmer.
Step 2
In a small cup or bowl combine the cornstarch and baking soda, adding just enough of the hot milk to dissolve the dry ingredients.
Step 3
Whisk together the dry ingredients and then pour back into the hot milk, stirring with a whisk and continue to simmer.
Step 4
Add a bit of water to the sugar along with the lemon juice and then add to a pan and cook over high heat to caramelize until light golden brown; let sugar cool and then add half of the milk mixture to the cooled sugar. Return the sugar to the remaining milk mixture and continue to cook for one hour or until caramel is thick and dark; remove from heat and let cool.
