Sicilian Salted Caramel Sauce

Istruzioni

1. 1

   In a medium, heavy-bottomed saucepan, add the granulated sugar and place over medium heat.

2. 2

   Allow the sugar to melt undisturbed, swirling the pan occasionally, until it turns a deep amber color. This should take about 5-7 minutes. Watch carefully to avoid burning.

3. 3

   Once the sugar is fully melted and amber, carefully add the unsalted butter. Stir constantly until the butter is fully incorporated.

4. 4

   Slowly pour in the heavy cream while stirring. The mixture will bubble vigorously, so be cautious.

5. 5

   Continue to stir and cook for another 1-2 minutes, until the sauce is smooth and slightly thickened.

6. 6

   Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the flaky sea salt.

7. 7

   Allow the caramel sauce to cool for a few minutes before transferring to a jar or serving container.

8. 8

   Serve warm or at room temperature. Store any leftovers in the refrigerator and gently reheat before serving.
