Instructions

How to make Homemade Salted Caramel

  • Place the sugar in a heavy bottom saucepan over medium heat in two or three parts. Sugar will star to melt. Then add another part of the sugar by the sides in the saucepan. Move the saucepan every few minutes to keep the sugar heating evenly, but do not stir with the spatula. 
  • Meanwhile in another small saucepan warm up heavy cream, but do not boil! 
  • When all sugar melted, remove saucepan from the heat. Add warm heavy cream to the melted sugar and stir to combine with the spatula. The mixture will begin to bubble. Please be careful!
  • Add butter and stir until completely combined. Add sea salt flakes or Fleur De Sea and stir again.
  • Transfer caramel into flat container and cover with the plastic wrap "to contact". You can also store in the glass jar.
