How To Make 6-Minute Caramel Recipe
Start Simple: In a medium-sized, heavy-bottomed pan, combine the granulated sugar and water. Ensure that the sugar is evenly moistened.
Heat it Up: Place the pan over medium-high heat. Allow the sugar to dissolve completely without stirring. Resist the urge to stir as this can cause the sugar to crystallize.
Observe the Change: Once the sugar has dissolved, keep a close eye on the syrup. It will start to bubble after a minute or two. The bubbles will get bigger and then smaller as the water evaporates.
Seek the Golden Hue: After 4-5 minutes, the syrup will turn into a beautiful amber color. This is the caramel stage you’re aiming for.
Cool it Down: Immediately remove from heat. Slowly pour in the heavy cream while whisking continuously. Be cautious, as the mixture will bubble vigorously.
Add Flavors: Whisk in the vanilla extract and a pinch of salt until you have a smooth, silky caramel.
Serve and Impress: Drizzle over ice cream, pancakes, or any dessert of your choice. Enjoy the delightful taste of your homemade 6-minute caramel!
