Ingredients

What do you need?

Quantity: 8P

caramel sauce
120 g cane sugar (you can also use fine white sugar)
80 g cold butter, diced
120 ml room temperature cream
1 generous pinch sea salt, to taste

Preparation method

How do you make this?

Put the sugar in a dry pan and set it over medium heat. Do not stir: let the sugar melt slowly from the edges until everything becomes liquid.

When the sugar is almost completely melted and starts to bubble lightly, you can carefully start stirring. Let it cook for about another minute.

Add the cubes of cold butter and stir until everything is incorporated.

Lower the heat slightly and then carefully pour in the room temperature cream. Stir vigorously until you get a smooth, glossy sauce.

Remove from the heat and add a generous pinch of sea salt. Taste and adjust to your liking.

Pour the sauce into a jar and let it cool. Store it sealed in the refrigerator afterwards.

Tips

Pay close attention when making caramel: melted sugar gets extremely hot. Work safely!
The longer you let the sugar boil, the deeper the caramel flavor – but be careful not to let it burn.
This caramel is delightful in desserts, but also try it in your coffee for a delicious salted caramel latte.
