Ingredients
- Milk cream, 33% fat - 120 g
- Sugar - 150 g
- Butter - 30 g
Step cooking
- Pour 150 g of granulated sugar into a dry stewpan. Put the stewpan with sugar on the medium heat of the burner, and melt to a caramel state, avoiding burning from the edges.
- On the second ring with a very small flame, put in a small convenient saucepan 120 ml of fat cream for heating. The cream fat should be at least 33%. The main thing in warming the cream is not to let it boil, and also to burn, therefore, cream should be heated with constant stirring.
- When the sugar begins to melt, turning into caramel, the crystals also need to be mixed. To do this, it is best to use a wooden spoon or a wooden spatula. If granulated sugar has not melted yet, and the cream has already warmed up enough, the ring should be turned off, and the saucepan should be left on the stove so that its contents do not cool prematurely.
- When the sugar crystals melt completely, and the caramel acquires a beautiful amber hue, turn off the burner under the saucepan.
- Gently pour well-warmed cream into the boiling caramel even after turning off the hot plate of the caramel, carefully and intensively mixing the hot ingredients with a thin stream. In this case, a rather rapid boiling of the contents of the stewpan is observed. At this moment, you need to be especially careful not to get burned with possible splashes of molten sugar!
- Add 30 g of softened butter to the hot caramel, and mix well again.
- Cool ready-made caramel sauce and pour into a dry clean container. Store the sauce in the refrigerator.
For a thick and viscous creamy caramel, cream should be injected 50 ml less, for liquid and flowing - 30-50 ml more.
