    *please mind everybody: caramel gets up to 400° Fahrenheit, so way hotter than a liquid. Please be very cautious! Also if you get caramel anywhere on your body be very carefull getting it of: you can rip your skin off if it gets hard, so do it fast BEFORE you use cold water or let it on if its too late and call help!*

      I wouldn't say there's no way to fail... It's easy but dangerous if you aren't careful. Molten sugar is one of the most extreme things you can work with in the kitchen. Him talking about how the cream can't be too cold or else it might explode? That'd mean a splash of 400°F sticky goo coming at you.

    Yes! Great recipe!
    I’ve tried a few popular caramel recipes on the Internet and they all came out grainy. This one comes out super smooth. Definitely watch out for the steam when you are pouring in the cream! My mixture after adding in the cream had large sticky sugar clumps. But after I added the butter and did the 2nd heat up, it was very smooth and consistent.
    Will make this recipe again and try cooking the sugar longer for a darker caramel!

  • @Korum211
    @Korum211 Год назад +127

    TO THOSE WHO THIS RECIPE HAS FAILED FOR OR THOSE WHO ARE CONSIDERING MAKING THIS. HERE ARE SOME RECOMMENDATIONS ASWELL AS HOW I MAKE MINE.
    1. You do not need to use heavy cream, milk gives the exact same result and I usually prefer it as I don't use heavy cream often and it spoils in the fridge. It also is super creamy.
    2. Should your caramel crystalize, put it over a medium high heat and begin to add milk/cream to it. Stir consistently until it mixes properly and becomes the consistency you want.
    3. Do not worry if its liquidy, that means you did it right, caramel is similar to water when hot but becomes proper when cooled.
    4. For the best shelf life, store the caramel in an airtight container in the fridge.
    5. You can cook it on a high heat and this is how I usually do it, just be careful about crystallization.
    6. Caramel is best when its been in the fridge for 10-20 minutes.
    7. Do not be discouraged if you fail or your sugar doesn't melt, it took me over 6 attempts to get to where I am now.
    8. FOR THE LOVE OF ALL THAT IS YOUR FINGER DO NOT TOUCH IT UNTIL YOU REMOVE IT FROM THE HEAT AND WAIT AT MINIMUM 5 MINUTES. IT CAN AND WILL SCAR YOUR FINGER. Don't worry though I've never burnt myself, long as you don't poke it while its bubbling you'll probably be fine. Its not rocket science, just treat it as your regular pot of boiling water and you'll be fine
    9. You will see your caramel change color, this usually takes time but it'll start around the sides first followed by the center. Just have patience. The center will be the final color. (It does take a bit, just watch it, don't be discouraged if you don't see it right away)
    RECIPE:
    1. In a pot (with large sides preferably) add 1-2 cups of sugar (depending on how much you want, I usually do 1 cup and it works well)
    2. Slowly add water to it, the water sugar mixture should be just enough to make the sugar mix with the water. The water boils off, just don't waterboard it.
    3. Put it on a medium high heat, 8-HI is what I usually use. (A lower temperature does work its just slower)
    4. Should you see the edges becoming darker faster than the center, dont worry its normal. The center is how dark the caramel will be. You can also gently swirl it if you want.
    5. When you can visibly see the caramel darkening, which is a sort of golden brown color (you'll see it, just be a little patient), remove it from the heat and pour in some milk/heavy cream slowly. Afterwards mix it in so it cools it down. You can then add it in bigger quantities. That or just mix it in all at once, either works.
    6. Put it on a low heat, LOW-3 heat is what you'll usually use and continue mixing. Add milk as needed and do not let it shrink, add milk or heavy cream until its a sauce continually mixing until consistent.
    7. Add like 4 shakes of table salt and a bit of butter. Mix until combined.
    8. When you're certain its saucy (Which if it isn't its fine, you can always put it on a higher heat and add more milk or cream), place it in a container or apply it to whatever you want to.
    9. Enjoy!
    (I myself just eyeball it but for every 2 cups of sugar you want about 1 3/4 cups milk. Some people add vanilla but for that original caramel taste you get at the theatre just add some butter and salt.)

      @@abomoh7614 Usually the main concern in caramel is the sugar, you can keep it stored refrigerated in an airtight container for up to a week. If stored properly it could very well last up to the expiration of the milk/heavy cream. A week after creating it usually yields the best results however

    I just love all things Preppy Kitchen- you have such a warm personality- it’s evident you love what you do! Your content is wonderful- clear and concise directions both on your website and in your videos. The details and tips you include and share are incredibly helpful. In my opinion, you outrank well known cooks like Martha Stewart 🤫 even though I’m a bit nostalgic about Martha, as I grew up with a mother who often watched her on tv,) her website is so vague on something like a caramel sauce (which is simple, but without descriptive direction can go array real quickly) You always have delicious and relatable recipes choices. Just wanted to express how much I enjoy all you do and share! Excited to pickup your new cookbook 😊

    After multiple tries of making caramel (with other recipes and techniques) in which all of them failed and either just burnt, stuck onto the saucepan or turned into toffee like candy, this was the first time ever that I've succeeded in making caramel. I was always expecting a failed caramel since I always didn't get it right with other recipes, but I'm so happy that could change thanks to this~ though it's not perfect (so far since it still has to cool down), it's definitely far better than any others that I've made.
    Edit: it cooled off and ready to be eaten and it's absolutely perfect~ at least for my taste and texture. It's addicting as well, really glad with how it turned out, everyone loved it as well.

  • @newbiegamelover4767
    @newbiegamelover4767 2 года назад +4

    So, I was making this caramel, and I had already combined the sugar and water. However, I realized that I had forgotten to get cream to mix in. So, what I did was substitute a cup of milk and use a whole stick (plus one table spoon) of butter and cooked the caramel for a few minutes longer. What I currently have is an amazing caramel sauce to be used as a drizzle for desserts (though, seeing how this is the first time I did this, I still need to experiment to see if I can make a more solidified version).

    Hi John, been following your recipes for a while now. Today, I tried your caramel sauce recipe. I followed your recipe and boiled it at 120C low heat. I didn’t stir it then halfway of boiling the white sugar just hardened on the pot not even turned into brown. The sugar isn’t boiling anymore and it just looked like round white sugar crystals that got frozen and stuck in a pot Hehehe do you have any advice for this?:)

Normally I’m not too fond of sweetness, but having added a little sea salt the taste was sooooooooooooo good! I made a caramel latte for my wife and me and this strange thing happened. I had to check the flavor as the temperature settled again and again and again. It’s dangerously good. Thank you for the recipe! 👍😊 I have to check the sauce one last time though…
