Caramel Sauce
Caramel Sauce: I searched for a "foolproof" caramel sauce recipe. After experimenting with various methods, I finally stumbled upon a method that makes sense to me! This recipe involves covering the pan, which creates condensation that "brushes the sugar crystals on the sides of the pan." It mimics the time-consuming process I wanted to avoid, so I'm thrilled with this simplified approach. I've successfully halved the ingredients and omitted heating the cream without compromising the outcome. This is a great recipe that I'm excited to share.
