    In a pinch I've used a teaspoon or two of corn syrup instead of tartar (the former I keep on hand as a guarantee for smooth sorbet in summer without using alcohol). Add at the beginning and it works pretty flawlessly.

    How much cream of tartar do you use?

  • @frostykittens
    @frostykittens 8 лет назад +2

    what can you do to make the caramel thicker? like say to use it to fill chocolate truffles?

    • @debran940
      @debran940 8 лет назад +3

      freeze it for a bit until it feels like a dough, then roll it/shape it into your truffles. Or just coat a truffle mold with chocolate and pour/pipe it in, then place in the fridge until it hardens. It usually works for me cause I'd rather not put any starch etc that will ruin the original consistency.

    • @frostykittens
      @frostykittens 8 лет назад

      Debra Nesan ok, thanks!

    • @ntnnot
      @ntnnot 6 лет назад +4

      Or cook some of the water away on low heat (i.e. once you have everything mixed, keep on cooking for a while to get the desired consistency). And remember that it'll thicken once it cools down.

    Let me tell you my tale of woe. I spent 3 hours attempting to make FOUR batches of caramel sauce. At first I innocently thought, "Oh I guess I wasn't supposed to swirl the sugar so much, okay I won't touch it next time." Then, "okaaay maybe the heat was too high?" And then, "okay, someone said add a few drops of lemon or tartar powder but I don't have tartar powder, and I just add lemo-- OKAY IT JUST SEIZED 1.5 SECONDS AFTER ADDING LEMON" and finally "okay, it's been ten minutes and nothing is seizing, the sugar is melted, just need this color to change....okay it's been another 5 minutes...and nothing... Lol why is this still clear??? WAIT WAIT STOP PLEASE NODONTSEIZEONMEAGAIN wwwwhhhyyy" and so, defeated, I cleaned up the kitchen save for the sink of dirty dishes and slumped on the couch only to find your recipe Clair. And you mentioned the tartar powder...and when I went to go look again to see if I had any (was so sure I didn't) there. it. was. FRONT ROW AND CENTER ON MY SPICE RACK. jfc.
    UPDATE: I did it!!!! Thank you so much!!!

    @marinasokolova3857 3 года назад

    Chef, your cream has to be warm before you can add it to the sauce.
    Why salt? Are you making salty caramel?
    We add salt in the dough (if it comes to bakery) for so many reasons but there is no reason to add salt in this sauce. Only for salty flavour
    Why butter? Common CHEF, you increase the fat percentage and make your sauce even heavier.

    • @corpsefoot758
      @corpsefoot758 2 года назад

      What’s wrong with a heavier sauce?
      Or does it ruin the flavor too

    She called granulated sugar simple. Familiar yes, the growing and processing of sugar cane into granulated sugar is not really simple
