Ingredient appreciation — what makes Dulce de Leche special

What sets Dulce de Leche apart is the handling of dulce de leche. In lesser versions this is treated as a background note. Here it's central and the richly caramelised result shows it. I've started buying it to cook with at home after this experience.

Argentina consumes more beef per capita than almost any other country. The a Buenos Aires steakhouse atmosphere was right for this kind of food. I had Quilmes lager as recommended and it matched well. If you want to understand what makes this cuisine distinctive, Dulce de Leche is the place to start.
