Pour sweetened condensed milk into a mason jar and then stir in the salt. Put the top on the jar and screw the band on the jar enough that it won't fall off, but not tight. Fill the crockpot with water to just below the band. Set the temperature to LOW and cover with lid.
Let it cook for 6-8 hours, then check the color of the jar. If the lid on the crockpot is clear, you can watch it darken throughout the day. After about 6 hours, the milk will have turned golden brown, thick and creamy. As you continue to cook it, the dulce de leche will darken and become thicker.
Remove the jar from the crockpot and set aside to cool. Let it cool at least 1 hour before opening the jar, or the hot dulce de leche may explode out at you if you open it while it is still too hot.
Serve in your coffee or over ice cream, cake or brownies, while the sauce is still slightly warm or store in the refrigerator until ready to use. The sauce will thicken when refrigerated and can easily be reheated in the microwave for 20-30 seconds at a time, stirring in between.
