4 ingredients for a homemade salted butter caramel
- Granulated sugar : it is with him that we make dry caramel.
- liquid cream : I always take 30% fat cream.
- Half-salt butter : it allows the coulis to take on texture as it cools and gives it a slightly salty taste.
- Fleur de sel : this is the final touch to enhance the taste of caramel (you can do without it if necessary).
NB: the exact quantities are given to you in my recipe at the bottom of the page.
How to make salted butter caramel easily?
- We realize a dry caramel : it's very simple, just heat the powdered sugar in a large saucepan over medium heat until it melts and takes on a nice amber color.
- Addition of Half-salt butter : once diced, add the butter and mix.
- We incorporate warmed cream : the mixture makes large bubbles, this is normal.
- The fleur de sel as a final touch: I love adding a final touch of salt before letting the salted butter caramel cool.
My tips for making this recipe a success
- do not use utensils to make the dry caramel : the powdered sugar melts on its own, you simply turn the pan using the handle.
- warm the cream before pouring it over the caramel : this avoids the temperature shock (which hardens the caramel).
- let the salted butter caramel rest until the desired consistency : the longer it is left to cool, the more it takes on the consistency of a spread.
How to store salted butter caramel?
It is easiest to store it in one or more glass jars with a lid. By putting it in the refrigerator it keeps up to 3 weeks.
The cold will harden the caramel, but you can make it liquid again by putting it in the microwave for a few seconds.
