CARAMEL


Turn ‘sundae sauce’
into tasty sweets,
a delectable dessert –
even a wing-night special!

Golden Caramel
Sauce


  1. In a 4ℓ pot with a sugar
    thermometer attached, stir
    together 2 cups sugar, ½ cup
    water and 2 tbsp honey. With
    a pastry brush dipped in water,
    brush any sugar crystals off
    side of pot. Heat to boiling on
    medium-high without stirring
    (about 3 minutes). Boil until dark
    amber (160°C to 170°C on
    sugar thermometer) (about
    9 minutes).

  2. Working quickly, remove pot
    from heat and add 1 cup double
    cream, warmed (caramel will
    steam and bubble up), and
    4 tbsp salted butter, softened,
    stirring until smooth.

  3. Let caramel cool slightly. Stir
    in 1 tsp vanilla extract and ½ tsp
    salt. Let cool completely. Makes
    about 2 cups. Store at room
    temperature for up to 1 month
    or in refrigerator for up to
    2 months. Reheat in microwave
    for 1 minute before serving.
