Hi, my name is Katy Rosenhouse. Today I'm going to make a homemade caramel. So I'm starting

with a cup of sugar, so I have my measuring cup. Okay, so that's one cup of sugar right

程度副詞

in my pot. I've got a quarter cup of water. So let's get rid of that. And you just want

to add enough so it becomes almost like a wet sand consistency, so you can see when

I mix my sugar in it's nice and moist, there are no dry bits kind of running throughout.

And just a little bit of corn syrup, and what that corn syrup is going to do is A, keep

our sugar from crystallizing, which means nay little dry bits of sugar that kind of

remain on the sides of the pan can kind of crystallize and harden up your caramel sauce.

The corn syrup is going to keep it from doing that. So I'm just going to stir in a little

bit of that and we're going to bring this to a boil on the stove.

The one thing you never want to do is stir your caramel, you want to leave it sitting

on the stove, we don't want to activate any of those little dry bits to crystallize our

caramel sauce, so we're just going to come to a boil and as it boils and thickens it's

going to take on a caramelized color, hence, our caramel.

All right, so my caramel's been boiling, and in any other case, smoke would be a bad sign

but when you're making caramel that smoke kind of sensation is exactly what we're looking

for. Caramel, by definition, is burnt sugar. So you can see that this caramel, this sugar

is not burnt. But it is a nice amber, kind of golden color. And that's exactly what we're

looking for. So just to finish this off, I'm going to add the two tablespoons of heavy

And it is going to bubble up so make sure if you're doing this with anybody who's a

little bit clumsy that they kind of step back, just add in a little bit and give it a stir.

And you can see it's kind of bubbling up and coming together. And a little bit more heavy

cream. So what that heavy cream is doing is kind of loosening things up.

If I were to take that caramel and just use it straight away I would have something that

ends up very, very hard. So that heavy cream is going to kind of soften it up just a little

bit but not enough that it won't set up nice and firm the way we want it to.

But now you can see what that looks like. I'm just going to add a little pinch of salt,

there's nothing more important for caramel than salt. And that's it, we have a beautiful

caramel sauce. Look how beautiful that is. So that's how you make a homemade caramel.
