HOMEMADE SALTED CARAMEL RECIPE



Homemade Salted Caramel Recipe image

Made from only 4 simple ingredients, this homemade caramel is salty, sweet, and irresistibly buttery. No candy thermometer required and the possibilities for serving are endless. (Though just a spoon is acceptable!) Use caution as the cooking caramel may splatter. Stand back and wear kitchen gloves if desired. Review recipe notes prior to beginning.

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 cup (200g) granulated sugar (make sure it's labeled "pure cane")*
6 Tablespoons (90g) salted butter, room temperature cut up into 6 pieces
1/2 cup (120ml) heavy cream, at room temperature
1 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Heat granulated sugar in a medium heavy-duty saucepan (avoid using non-stick) over medium heat, stirring constantly with a high heat resistant rubber spatula or wooden spoon. Sugar will form clumps and eventually melt into a thick brown, amber-colored liquid as you continue to stir. Be careful not to burn it.
  • Once sugar is completely melted, immediately stir in the butter until melted and combined. Be careful in this step because the caramel will bubble rapidly when the butter is added. If you notice the butter separating or if the sugar clumps up, remove from heat and vigorously whisk to combine it again. (If you're nervous for splatter, wear kitchen gloves. Keep whisking until it comes back together, even if it takes 3-4 minutes. It will eventually- just keep whisking. Return to heat when it's combined again.)
  • After the butter has melted and combined with the caramelized sugar, stir constantly as you very slowly pour in the heavy cream. Since the heavy cream is colder than the hot caramel, the mixture will rapidly bubble when added. After all the heavy cream has been added, stop stirring and allow to boil for 1 minute. It will rise in the pan as it boils.
  • Remove from heat and stir in the salt. Allow to slightly cool down before using. Caramel thickens as it cools.
  • Cover tightly and store for up to 1 month in the refrigerator. Caramel solidifies in the refrigerator. Reheat in the microwave or on the stove to desired consistency. See "What is the Texture of This Salted Caramel?" above.

Bobby Flay's Salted Caramel Sauce image

Make a batch of this sauce before guests come to dinner, keep it warm in the oven while they eat, then spoon it over vanilla ice cream for dessert: That's a win. Or make it in the morning and pair it with pancakes. Mr. Flay, the voluble chef and television star, pairs it with double-chocolate pancakes. That is a very serious business.

SALTED BUTTER CARAMEL



Salted Butter Caramel image

Caramel's got this reputation that it's really dangerous to make because it's hot sugar boiling-but don't worry. If you pay attention and use the proper techniques, it's easier than you think.

Time 2h40m

Yield 60 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 cup heavy cream
1 3/4 cups unsalted butter, 1.75 C (400g) Unsalted butter
1 teaspoon Fleur de sel, 1 tsp (6g)
2 1/2 cups sugar, 2.5 C (500g) Sugar
1/4 cup corn syrup

Steps:

  • Place heavy cream and butter in a small saucepan and bring to a boil. Meanwhile, in a larger saucepan place sugar and corn syrup. When the cream/butter mixture is boiling, add the fleur de sel, stir, then strain into a bowl and set aside. Meanwhile the sugar/corn syrup mixture should be in the early stages of melting and turning to caramel. Gently move the darker, melted parts of the sugar around the pot, so everything cooks to the same consistency. Bring the caramel to an amber color until a thermometer registers 145 degrees C (and up to 160 degrees C), then turn off the heat and add the cream/butter mixture, a little bit at a time (the mixture will bubble up). Turn on the heat and cook to 120 C degrees. Turn off the heat, remove the thermometer and pour the caramel into a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Cool to room temperature, about 2 hours.
  • When caramel is cool, remove from the pan. Using a small paring knife go around the edge and flip over onto parchment paper sprayed with non-stick spray. Give it a quick tap and when it comes out remove the parchment paper. Cut into small pieces (about 5 dozen) using a knife or scissors. Place a caramel in the middle of a wrapper, wrap and twist the ends.

Tips:

  • Use a heavy-bottomed saucepan: This will help prevent the sauce from burning.
  • Cook the sugar mixture over medium heat: This will help prevent the sugar from crystallizing.
  • Stir the sugar mixture constantly: This will help prevent the sugar from burning.
  • Be careful not to overcook the sugar mixture: If the sugar mixture becomes too dark, it will taste bitter.
  • Add the butter to the sugar mixture slowly: This will help prevent the butter from curdling.
  • Stir the sauce constantly until it is smooth: This will help prevent the sauce from separating.
  • Let the sauce cool slightly before using: This will help prevent the sauce from being too hot.

Conclusion:

Salted caramel butter sauce is a delicious and versatile sauce that can be used on a variety of dishes. It is easy to make at home and only requires a few simple ingredients. With a little patience and care, you can make a delicious salted caramel butter sauce that will impress your friends and family.
