Best 6 Oranges In Caramel Syrup Recipes

ORANGES IN CARAMEL SYRUP

Steps:

• Lightly oil a baking sheet.
• In a small saucepan, bring ½ cup of the sugar and 3 tbsp of water to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring to dissolve the sugar; boil without stirring until the mixture turns a golden amber colour, about 5-6 minutes; immediately pour the caramel onto the oiled baking sheet and tilt the sheet to spread the caramel as thin as possible (use a pot-holder or towel as the baking sheet will be hot from the caramel); cool completely; break up the caramel into pieces; in a food processor, pulse the caramel pieces until chopped into pieces the size of chocolate chips; do not overprocess; the caramel chips can be stored in an airtight container for up to 1 week; if they stick together, give the airtight container a bang on the kitchen counter, and that should loosen things up.
• Using a small, sharp knife, peel the oranges, removing all the bitter, white pith; working over a heatproof bowl, cut between the membranes to release the orange sections; measure out ½ cup of the orange juice.
• In a small saucepan, bring the remaining 2/3 cup sugar and ¼ cup of water to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring to dissolve the sugar; boil without stirring until the mixture turns a golden amber colour, anywhere from 5-7 minutes; remove the caramel from heat and add the reserved orange juice - avoid spatters- stir and cook over low heat until smooth; let cool slightly; pour the sauce over the oranges, cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or overnight, stirring occasionally.
• To serve: Arrange the orange slices in dessert bowls; spoon some of the juices into each bowl and sprinkle with caramel chips; garnish with mint sprigs.

SPICED ORANGES WITH CARAMEL SAUCE

Steps:

• In a 4 cup glass measuring cup combine the brown sugar, heavy cream and light corn syrup. Set aside in microwave until later.
• To cut oranges into supremes: remove rind and pith. Over a bowl to catch the juices, cut in between skins to release supremes. Squeeze juice from skins over supremes and toss with a bit of cardamom to taste. Set supremes in 4 dessert bowls.
• When ready to eat microwave brown sugar mixture, uncovered at full power for 2 minutes. Whisk to blend, and cook 1 minute more until a bit thickened. Remove from heat and stir in butter. Immediately pour over oranges and garnish with pistachios. Sauce will thicken as it cools. Leftovers can be kept in the fridge for a week. To soften, microwave 30 seconds to a minute, uncovered.

CARAMELIZED ORANGES

Steps:

• Squeeze enough juice from 3 oranges to measure 1 cup.
• Bring sugar and water to a boil in a 1 1/2-quart heavy saucepan over moderate heat, stirring until sugar is dissolved. Boil syrup, without stirring but washing down any sugar crystals with a pastry brush dipped in cold water, until syrup around edges begins to turn golden brown, about 10 minutes. Tilt pan and carefully add orange juice (caramel will harden and vigorously steam). Simmer, stirring, until caramel is completely dissolved, about 2 minutes.
• Cut peel, including all white pith, from remaining 6 oranges with a sharp paring knife and cut each orange crosswise into thirds.
• Heat one third of butter (1 teaspoon) in a 12-inch nonstick skillet over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking, then sauté 6 orange slices until golden, 2 to 3 minutes on each side. Transfer to a plate. Sauté remaining orange slices in butter in same manner, wiping out skillet between batches if necessary. Return all orange slices to skillet along with caramel sauce and cook over moderate heat until heated through, about 1 minute.

FRUIT CARAMEL

Steps:

• Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the sugar and cook, stirring frequently, until it all melts into a light gold syrup, 5 to 6 minutes. Continue to cook to a golden brown color, about 1 minute more. Carefully add the fruit all at once and reduce the heat to medium-low. The hot syrup may bubble and become foamy.
• Continue to cook, stirring constantly until any hard clumps of caramel dissolve and the fruit pieces soften and break down, about 4 minutes. Stir in the salt and heavy cream until there are no white streaks then remove from heat. Transfer to a bowl and use immediately, or cool and refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 1 week.
• Serve warm as a topping for ice cream, pies or tarts, or use as a caramel filling for layered cake or trifles. If cold, reheat gently in a small saucepan over low heat.

ORANGE CARAMEL SAUCE

Steps:

• Combine sugar and 1/4 cup water in heavy small saucepan. Stir over medium-low heat until sugar dissolves. Increase heat and boil without stirring until deep amber color, occasionally brushing down pan sides with wet pastry brush and swirling pan, about 8 minutes.
• Carefully add orange juice and orange peel (mixture will bubble vigorously). Stir over low heat until smooth and any caramel bits dissolve. Cool completely. (Can be prepared 1 day ahead. Cover and let stand at room temperature.)

CREAMY ORANGE CARAMELS

Steps:

• Line an 11x7-in. dish with foil, letting ends extend over sides by 1 in.; grease foil with 1 teaspoon butter., In a large heavy saucepan, combine the sugar, corn syrup and remaining butter. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly. Reduce heat to medium-low; boil gently, without stirring, for 4 minutes., Remove from the heat; gradually stir in milk. Cook and stir until a candy thermometer reads 244° (firm-ball stage). Remove from the heat; stir in extracts. Immediately pour into prepared dish (do not scrape saucepan). Let stand until firm., Using foil, lift out candy; remove foil. Using a buttered knife, cut caramel into scant 1-1/2x1-in. pieces. Wrap individually in waxed paper; twist ends.
