Remove the wrapper from the cans of condensed milk.

Use a sharpie to write numbers on the cans for identification after boiling.

Place the cans in a pot and cover with water, ensuring there are 1-2 inches of water above the cans.

Bring the water to a boil, then lower the heat to just below medium and let it boil for one hour.

After one hour, remove the first can and set it aside.

Cover the pot again and let the remaining can boil for another hour.

After the second hour, remove the second can and let it cool.

Continue boiling the last can for another hour.

Once all cans have cooled, check the appearance of the boiled milk to determine readiness.
