Salted Caramel Sauce

Salted caramel sauce: try it on ice-cream, spread on toast, with apple pie or on top of banana cake. Or straight from the jar with a spoon. Any way, it works.

salted caramel sauce for ice-cream and pies

There are only four ingredients in this sauce and it really is very hard to get wrong. What it is easy to do is spill the molten sugar when you aren’t paying attention. I have the burned foot to prove it: I am thankful I was making it in winter and therefore the damage was minimised by thick walking socks, as my typical barefoot summer look would have resulted in an A & E trip. Please concentrate and take care when making this.

Salted Caramel Sauce
Author: Kelly Innes
Cook time:  10 mins
Total time:  10 mins
 
Ingredients
  • 250g unsalted butter
  • 250g light brown sugar
  • 220 ml double cream
  • 1 tsp fresh ground salt
Instructions
  1. Put butter and sugar in a non-stick pan and melt over a low heat until all the sugar crystals have dissolved.
  2. Turn up the heat and bring to the boil, stirring continuously, for about five minutes.
  3. Remove from the heat, then stir through the cream until you have a smooth mix.
  4. Add teaspoon of salt, and taste.
  5. Add more if needed, in fairly small increments. I find I need between 1 and 1.5tsp of salt but it varies from batch to batch.
  6. Transfer to clean sterile jar. Keep in fridge.
3.2.1255

You can used evaporated milk instead of cream which will give a longer shelf life, but may result in you needing more salt, and you will still need to keep it in the fridge.

It will firm up in the fridge so either get the jar out and bring to room temperature before you use it or dollop a spoonful or two in a mug and microwave in very short bursts until liquid.

      Honestly I have no idea @nikki (I’d guess at a month if kept in the fridge) but the rate we are going through it I’ll need to make a new batch next week!
