That helped...thank you!
Can I replace heavy cream with something else?
Southern Living you forgot to list butter as one of the main ingredients.
I saw BUTTER how many grams was it
@@ramonecampbell1268 And they say to use vanilla but the demonstration didn't show when to put that in.
Please tell other youtubers to go straight to the point like you... Others could make this a 10min video
"Hi. My name is Molly, and I’m gonna like show you how to make caramel today, because who doesn’t like caramel? When I was a little girl, blah-blah-blah, and I liked the hat but I always picked the shoe bcz blah-blah-blah, so now I buy all my pans at Williams Sonoma, blah-blah-blah,..." 🙄 wank-wank-wank...
@@shavinmccrotch9435 then you skip it to 3min... Still talking, then another 3min talking about the weather in their region...other 3min describing each ingredient and where there got them and why they got them... Only the last 20secs they actually do it
Especially women.
Women are generally sooooo talky.
It’s kinda funny, really.
@@shavinmccrotch9435 yeah, really funny
i agree
"Use your nose"
*Voldemort has left the chat*
Mathaba Hassan haha your comment made me giggling
Lol! 😂
Krillin too..
So we did not watch it
lmao
I want to thank you not only for the easy recipe, but for your honesty and professionalism jumping straight into the method, unlike some youtubers who their vids are pain to watch.
We're so glad you enjoyed the video, Alia!
@@southernliving can I use this for caramel apples?
IKR, someone was able to get their video to like 10 minutes
It being less thick makes it better for mixing too
@@vi0829 lol I was about to ask that I’m making caramel apples and I wanted to see if they were able to be used for them
I don’t even need caramel I’m just bored lol. Good tutorial though
Wolfen same
😂😂
😆
Wolfen me too. 🤣
Same 😂
Just so you know it works fine with milk instead of heavy cream
Just a tiny bit less thick but it works the same.
Adel Shalala do I need lemon juice
@@misscandyxO Not essential
My god thank you so much
Do you think you could thicken it up by adding more butter?
@@CardinalTreehouse yes, i did that and it came out hard, but a little chewy.
Since no one clicked the description;
- 1 cup sugar
- 1/3 cup water
- 2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- Pinch of sea salt
how many butter i have to put in? i see her put some butter.
Unsalted butter ?
DO NOT use vanilla extract! It makes it have a tart bitter taste. I tried it and I only used ONE teaspoon not 2. So just use 0 teaspoons. You’re welcome.
cales I LOVE U THANK YOU
That's
This video was able to help my ten-year-old sister make caramel.
We love to hear that, Mendel!
I am 11 and I made it using this also
@@aaliajain7498 That's really cool! :)
@@JuliaGr8 thx
Sux
If you're using butter, here's the measurements I used: About 2 table spoons is fine, although if you think its not thick enough you could add another table spoon or so. Also, make sure it's softened.
Petpurrveyor thank you
Don't you just love straight to the point tutorials!!! Thank you!!! :D
200 gr sugar
80 ml water
240 gr heavy cream, if you're wondering !!
0 IQ
I made it with 150ml sugar, 50ml water and 150ml table cream. Any volume as long as they're 3:1:3. And I measured all of them with one measuring cup. Just do them sequentially. It's really easy and no fuss at all. Success at my first try ever!
Thx
@@yuding6019 3 1 3 fu*k free world
thank you. she didn't mention how much creme
I love Caramel, at first I didn't know how to make it.. but now I know!!! thanks RUclips! 😆😍😋
@Tae Oppa Youngjae Oppa
I don’t like cucumbers.
I like GOT7 too but sadly the disbanded
I literally cried
This was a great tutorial! The caramel turned out SO delicious. It was my first time making it too! I love how the video is to the point and so simple! Thank you so much!💛
For those who hand squeeze lemon: 1/5 of a lemon would be sufficient. Or squeeze into a cup and measure with a tea spoon.
I hand squeezed 1/4 of a lemon and is too sour. But I'm putting my tangy caramel into my chocolate cookie batter anyways! Smells heavenly!
Says two teaspoons lemon ??
Quick video, ingredients in the description. Perfect, just what I needed!
Love it. Didn't know it was so easy. I usually do the can way.
If i could like multiple times i would. Not even for recipe, for duration. Straight to the point.
Gotta say this turned out lovely! Only thing i did was exchange the milk with molten Iron, bit harsh in the beginning that taste, but it will grow on ye
Forsooth
Will that help with my iron deficiency
@@glentydrich9135 same xD
It's important to remember temperature when you're working with your ingredients. Your sugar is likely to be stored at room temperature but you cream may have been refrigerated. I think it's best that the cream is room temperature before you add it in or it may spoil the process. *I am not a candy maker* by any means.
Imo, i reckon the cream should be cold so it slows the cooking process of the caramel
After watching 2 other videos and 2 failed attempts of carmelizing sugar, this video saved the day. The instructions were clearly explained and the tidbit on using lemon juice was the key to my success. Good instructional video.
Great to hear, Arden! Glad you enjoyed.
Great! Did you use butter? I don't see it in the description.
My stove caught on fire and now I’m in a hotel waiting for my insurance to repair the damages
Good job 👍🏻 it was so easy how could you mess up a simple recipe,but it ok at least you tried🙂🙂
Wow congrats to you 👏👏👏😂
Hope your insurance got a good stove so maybe you could try again? 😂😂😂
@@joriqueen2705 to be fair, caramel is really easy to mess up 😅
pahe in I know it’s easy to mess up but burn the stove that’s another level
@@joriqueen2705 ...
Great video! I tried one other video, then came back to this one because I had more success on the first try. So - got it right after about 4 tries. Use the lemon in order to ensure that you don't overcook the sugar. I used a cast iron skillet which help maintain even heat. Thank you very much Southern Living!
I amde it with coconut cream instead of a dairy and it came out superb!!
what did you subsittue fore butter? i am loookinng for a vegan recipe
LRGIII you only use butter if you don’t have any cream, so just use coconut cream (sorry i’m really late haha)
LRGIII oh wait never mind you write that 3 days ago lol
@Maddy Grayson yayyyy i bout cocunt cream just to try it out
Used this recipe tonight 3x!!!! It was so easy and the caramel was really good! Thank you...I definitely will be using this recipe again.
Short and to the point. Loved the way you explained. Thanks a lot!
a good mold, some coconut,almonds, chocolate, etc and you get a great homemade candy bar, thanks a bunch. gonna save a lot with this one
best recipe ever.....!!!! so amazing
*Me at 3:am craving something sweet:*
I will have to try this way.... so much easier and quick! I'm so used to doing it the old fashion way with evaporated milk .. family tradition.
Thanks for sharing!
Here in Hawaii I make wet caramel like this with a little fresh pineapple juice instead of lemon and condensed milk with a touch of sea salt.
I use a Pyrex pot with a lid to help avoid crystals.
This is the fastest method I know of.
Right before the caramel is dark enough I remove from The heat and add the condensed milk .
Do you use a cup of condensed milk to a cup of sugar? Is there any heavy cream or is it just the condensed milk?
I'm stoned out of my gourd and I just made this. If I can make this while stoned, without burning it, to put on top of brownies, y'all can too.
bro this shit did not work and im sober how in the hell did i do it wrong
@@ceciliabrooks7936 Have you tried repeating the recipe while stoned?
Took me 2 attempts sober, super high heat!
I just made this today for the first time and my caramel turned out perfect. Thank you!
Made this with bourbon in place of vanilla and it’s so tasty and wonderfully pourable. Thank you!
I love this recipe
Here's an easier life hack for caramel:
Step 1: Kidnap a professional chef Step 2: Force them at gunpoint to make the best dang caramel or ELSE
Step 3: PROFIT
Reminds me of a film where they kidnapped the grandma, she burned her own "SNAPS" liquer and was a fantastic cook. In the end they didnot want to give the grandma back. Hugs.
You THOGHT this was funny
Lol
@@axivs6443 nah, bro, that shit is funny. Coming from a professional chef lmfao
@@SuperBenette what film is that
I screwed up a batch of caramel having never made it before, and this video saved my life for batch 2, thank you, I am in awe
OMG, this is really great recipe. Thank you very much! Our kids love this!
I like this recipe a lot better than one of the ones i previously used. A few months ago i was making caramel and once i finished making it i poured it in a bowl to let it cool. The caramel ended up going all over my fingers. I immediately rinsed it off. The only person home with me was my brother. And neither of us had anyway to go anywhere. So i had skin that was peeling off and burning. And i had to take a hammer and smash an ice block cause thats all we had. And then i found out your supposed to use water. So then i sat for 7 hours with my hand in water. And yes that may seem like an extreme. But the only time i left it out of water was to go to the grocery story when i finally had transportation. And even with pressure on it the whole time. I still managed to be screaming in the store. When i got home i put it back in water. and slept with my hand in water. when i woke up my skin looked awful. Currently im still healing. So just a warning. When the caramel is done being made. The after steps could be dangerous.
Mental Purge : I am sorry to hear that. Hope you are ok now. I used today workglasses, ffp2 mask and hand gloves😀
Southern living, thank you so much for this fast, easy and delicious caramel recipe. Because of you I got it right the first time around and it is truly delicious! Thanks again for this keeper!!! ❤️
Thank you! I tried few recipes but only yours worked! Really nice! 👍🏻🙏🏻
Great recipe! Used this recipe when I made caramel for the first time, and it worked perfectly! I added some salt in the end, and plan to add ginger the next time! Thanks :)
Easy; step 1: boil sugar and water.
Step 2: throw sauce pot away.
walter kersting 😂
Pour water in the remainder of the pot and boil it. Makes your life 100x easier.
The key is to NOT STIR it will crystallize n stick to the side when water is added to sugar stir lentils to not hit the sides then leave it to boil when brown gently wave the pot to stir it once again . Dont wait to long cause it continues to brown even after off the heat
Ingredients
1 cup sugar
1/3 cup water
2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
1 cup heavy cream
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Pinch of sea salt
just go to their website and support them
Yougi G thx
Yougi G
the butter how much butter has been added?
The lemon juice gives it a weird taste ending
MultiSubjects MultiSubjects You can use corn syrup in place of lemon juice. If you’re worried about crystallization.
I just did it and it’s perfect!! Thank you
Thank you for this recipe. Made it twice already. It was perfect. My madam and her niece thought it was ready made caramel sauce from supermarket.
Thank you for the recipe. I tried making caramel for the first time and it wasn't bad for a first try 😅
Oh snap! I'm so adding this into my macchiato... thank you💚
added to my latte!!!
Dude I love how straight to the point this is
Thank you for the lemon juice tip!
Thank you for the instructions! I made excellent caramel sauce using your recipe.
Can I use regular salt??
hi
It sounds sooooo easy. I'll give it a try!
Worked amazing thank you!!
Thank you. I just got so annoyed when I typed caramel sauce in the search box and found a ridiculous amount of 10 minute videos.
I understand this is a full time job for some people and I definitely support working hard for your family . I’ll get over it....definitely my own issue....but thank you. Thank you for for providing a quick easy video as it’s 3 on Sunday morning snd I just want something quick and simple. 👍🏼

Quick , well explain , simple and effective tutorial .this is brilliant
Beautifully done. I LOVE caramel!
I love caramel 😋 it’s my favourite
Tiare Ikimotu I agree!! Caramel anything has got to be good!!
In the recipe u give the butter amount is not mentioned.
Thank you so much for this recipe.
This is very straight forward.
I love it!
I'm making Homemade caramel sauce for my sister for Christmas. So this is perfect. Thank you for the recipe. My sister is going to LOVE this!
I don’t think this recipe is for sauce. Just heat a can of Eagle-Brand milk for sauce
Looked easy but I failed miserably... Lost a pot in the process to... XD
"lost a pot" ? it stuck/burnt to the bottom? or it just kinda said "nope this persons cooking is horrible i'm outa here!"?
if the first then chances are its possible but difficult/work intensive to salvage.
That seems.... easy.... Until you're actually making it 😂
I'm glad she told me to use a clean pan. (Just kidding, it struck me funny that we'd otherwise use a dirty one.) This was in fact a nice concise and clear tutorial, and I'd never heard of the tip about the lemon juice. Thanks!
Thank you. I really appreciate you posting the recipe in the description and pinning in the comments.
I made this last year, and I liked to burned my damn house down, caught fire to the drapes, and got sever caramel burns on my arms and chest. Never, never again will I attempt to make this ever
Oh my goodness!
ahh we got a pro chef in the building
how does that even happen
I add to my pineapple

The video is super! Short and clear!
I made homemade caramel twice and each time it came out delicious......Thank you!
In tue philippines we just boil the closed condensed milk can for 3 hours and then we have caramel
I would think it would be cheaper to just go buy the caramel sauce that run a stove for 3 hours...
Its called dulce de leche not caramel
That is not caramel.
I'm Filipino as well.
What you're saying is dulce de leche. And we also use condensed milk as another way to make yema. :)
Wow
Short
Concise
Succinct
To the point
And really really delicious. Thanks a bunch.
Totally AWESOME!! Thank you so much....😊
This turned out great, thanks a lot.
I lost it when she told to use your nose, I legit thought that I have put my nose inside the pan
Just use brown sugar.
i dont think you understand how caramel works. just because its brown doesn't mean it will taste like caramel
pls
@@markusfelon I think they were joking
@@vihaanle3010 oh, yeah, probably
Love it ... very simple
Followed your instructions to the book . Fantastic caramel 👨🍳❤️👍
You ALWAYS want to put the water in first, if you are using it.
Oops. Why?
“If you’re using butter...”
But quantity not shown in the description as an option??
try 3-4 Tbs. that's about what it looked like to me and the amount similar recipes list
@@Belltogo3000 so it's pretty stupid for a recipe video to not include all the ingredients
Thank you so much u share this recipe, I made at home, it's very helpful 🙏
I made this recipe but used milk (lesser amount). I got my desired results. Thank you!
oooooh

Thank you. Short and sweet video.
I just made this. I used Sprite instead of lemon juice. and instead of heavy cream, I used cream cheese!!! I made caramel squares! candy! It was so good!! Thank you!
348°… ended up with 1/2 a cup of burnt sugar…
This is one of those things where you go by how it looks, not by temperature. She really should not have said that temperature, all thermometers are not alike nor accurate.
How much butter though?
Mslovelyshot Mrs. Dawn 1 stick of unsalted butter works best
I think she was asking for a ratio, or measurement of some sort. One stick seems like a lot for the measurements given here lol
@@shreksbootyhole674 l was looking for the answer thank god
I agree to Jessica Beca...thanks southern living and chef whitney cheers
Amazing recipe and so quick . Thanks for sharing
instead of heavy cream can we just use cream
suhani #live life with joy I used milk
Hey_ItzHolly
Did the milk work or nah
Is it fahrenheit, kelvin or celcius ?
Fahrenheit
Wow. You mean to tell me it's THIS easy to make caramel?! All this time, I don't know WHAT exactly I thought it involved, but this is BEYOND easy! I wanted a dip for my green apples but didn't want the store bought kind so I figured I'd search what it requires.
Short simple to the point thank you so much for this recipe immediate subscribe
Is there any substitute for heavy cream? Heavy cream can get very pricey here in the Philippines.
Nestle cream in the can? That’s what I always use as heavy cream...All purpose cream works too but the caramel is a little less thick when I use all purpose

Depending on the amout of sugar you use, you csn risk burning yur sugar before the whole pot gets melted by doing it your way
Its best to stir it as it melts
Thank u all for this fast recipe.
I never realized how simple making caramel was so easy.
omg so tasty 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
Thanks for being short.
Awesome! I moved to India 5 years ago and both of my boys have never had caramel before. Gonna try this today!! It's not the same here at all! Neither is chocolate 😢 thank you for posting this! Peace✌
It turned out great thank you so much
