Between 10 a.m. and 2 p.m., my local public radio station serves up <em>Wait, Wait, Don\u2019t Tell Me<\/em>, <em>Planet<\/em> <em>Money\/How I Built This<\/em>, <em>RadioLab<\/em>, and the <em>TED <\/em>and <em>New Yorker Radio Hours<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Listening to the radio (as opposed to podcasts) is old school, and my Saturday kitchen projects trend that way, too. They take hours of time and amounts of patience I don\u2019t typically have during the workweek, things like keeping one eye on a warming pot of DIY yogurt while I wipe down the cabinets with vinegar and water; or making homemade holiday gifts like maple bourbon mustard, rhubarb liqueur, or candied jalape\u00f1o and Fresno peppers. This year, it\u2019s jars of cajeta.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cajeta is a deep, rich goat\u2019s milk caramel sauce first made by accident in Celaya, a town in the central Mexican city state of Guanajuato In 1810, when Mexicans began fighting for independence from Spanish rule, Mexican troops were arriving in Celaya. As the story goes, a local woman was preparing atole\u2014a hot, milky drink made with cinnamon, sugar, and cornstarch\u2014for them when she burnt it. The soldiers still ate it. And loved it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Commercially produced cajeta has since become a pantry staple in Mexico, where it\u2019s slathered on toast, stuffed into empanadas, poured over ice cream, and used as a dip for both fried plantains and crisp Maria cookies. In the US, it is typically overshadowed by the more widely touted, cow\u2019s milk\u2013based dulce de leche. But cajeta\u2019s flavor, argues Rick Bayless, an American chef and restaurateur who specializes in traditional Mexican cuisine, is fuller, tangier, and more complex due to both the goat\u2019s milk (which is readily available from local goat farms as well as the Whole Foods refrigerator case) and the long simmering time (chemically enabled by a small amount of baking soda in the mix). \u201cThe result trades the clamorous solo flavor of caramelized sugar&#8230;for the quieter ensemble of browned richness that hints of butterscotch,\u201d writes Bayless in his book <em>Mexico: One Plate at a Time<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A growing number of American goat cheesemakers are producing and selling cajeta as a value-added product at farmers\u2019 markets. But should you find yourself with a quart of goat\u2019s milk and a significant chunk of time on your hands on a Saturday, try making a batch of your own.<\/p>\n\n\n<div id=\"recipe\"><\/div><div id=\"wprm-recipe-container-44597\" class=\"wprm-recipe-container\" data-recipe-id=\"44597\" data-servings=\"0\"><div class=\"wprm-recipe wprm-recipe-template-chic\"><div class=\"wprm-container-float-right\">\n    <div class=\"wprm-recipe-image wprm-block-image-rounded\"><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"border-width: 0px;border-style: solid;border-color: #666666;border-radius: 3px;\" width=\"250\" height=\"250\" src=\"https:\/\/culturecheesemag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Entertaining2022_CanDo_Cajeta_PC-Guajillo-studio-Adobe-Stock-500x500.jpeg\" class=\"attachment-250x250 size-250x250\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/culturecheesemag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Entertaining2022_CanDo_Cajeta_PC-Guajillo-studio-Adobe-Stock-500x500.jpeg 500w, https:\/\/culturecheesemag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Entertaining2022_CanDo_Cajeta_PC-Guajillo-studio-Adobe-Stock-150x150.jpeg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 250px) 100vw, 250px\" \/><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h2 class=\"wprm-recipe-name wprm-block-text-bold\">Spiced and Salted Cajeta<\/h2>\n<div class=\"wprm-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"wprm-spacer\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"wprm-recipe-summary wprm-block-text-normal\">Don\u2019t skimp on the size of your pot when you are making this recipe. If you use a smaller pot, you risk having the mixture boil over into a very sticky, stinky mess. This recipe can easily be doubled if you have an ample 16-quart pot and over two hours to stay in the kitchen as the larger quantity of milk simmers down to the proper cajeta thickness.<\/div>\n<div

ingredients in an 8-quart stainless-steel pot and place over medium-high heat. Stir mixture until sugar dissolves. When mixture begins to boil, reduce heat until it is gently boiling. Stir occasionally at first. When it turns golden brown and starts to get thick, stir more frequently. Once mixture is thick and a spoon scraped across the bottom of the pot makes a trail that takes a second to run back in on itself, the cajeta is ready. The whole process can take between 30 minutes and 90 minutes, depending on pot, heat, air temperature, and humidity.<\/div><\/li><li id=\"wprm-recipe-44597-step-0-1\" class=\"wprm-recipe-instruction\" style=\"list-style-type: decimal;\"><div class=\"wprm-recipe-instruction-text\" style=\"margin-bottom: 5px;\">Remove cinnamon sticks and ancho chilies. Cool cajeta for 30 minutes before transferring it to a glass container fitted with a tight lid. Store in refrigerator for up to a month before it starts to crystalize. You can also store in freezer for up to six months if you smooth a piece of plastic wrap against the surface of the cajeta, leave an inch of clearance at the top of jar, and make sure the cover is secure.<\/div><\/li><\/ul><\/div><\/div>\n<div id=\"recipe-video\"><\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"wprm-spacer\" style=\"height: 20px\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"wprm-icon-shortcode wprm-icon-shortcode-separate wprm-align-center wprm-icon-decoration-line\" style=\"font-size: 24px;height: 24px;\"><div class=\"wprm-decoration-line\" style=\"border-color: #e0e0e0\"><\/div><span class=\"wprm-recipe-icon\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><svg width=\"16px\" height=\"16px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.1\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" xmlns:xlink=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xlink\"><g id=\"Icons\" stroke=\"none\" stroke-width=\"1\" fill=\"none\" fill-rule=\"evenodd\"><g fill=\"#9e9e9e\"><path d=\"M9.0039,16.0079 C5.1419,16.0079 1.9999,12.8659 1.9999,9.0039 C1.9999,5.1419 5.1419,1.9999 9.0039,1.9999 C12.8659,1.9999 16.0079,5.1419 16.0079,9.0039 C16.0079,12.8659 12.8659,16.0079 9.0039,16.0079 M23.6209,22.2069 L16.1439,14.7299 C16.1059,14.6919 16.0579,14.6759 16.0159,14.6449 C17.2599,13.1009 18.0079,11.1409 18.0079,9.0039 C18.0079,4.0309 13.9769,-0.0001 9.0039,-0.0001 C4.0309,-0.0001 -0.0001,4.0309 -0.0001,9.0039 C-0.0001,13.9769 4.0309,18.0079 9.0039,18.0079 C11.1409,18.0079 13.1009,17.2599 14.6449,16.0169 C14.6749,16.0579 14.6919,16.1059 14.7299,16.1439 L22.2069,23.6209 C22.4019,23.8169 22.6579,23.9139 22.9139,23.9139 C23.1699,23.9139 23.4259,23.8169 23.6209,23.6209 C24.0119,23.2309 24.0119,22.5979 23.6209,22.2069\"><\/path><\/g><\/g><\/svg><\/span> <div class=\"wprm-decoration-line\" style=\"border-color: #e0e0e0\"><\/div><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"wprm-spacer\"><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mexican sweet caramelized goat milk called &#8220;cajeta&#8221; on cookies Saturdays in my kitchen are centered around the transistor radio on the windowsill and a project on the stove.
