Lamb and white bean stew.

Caramel sauce is the one sauce that I think everyone loves. It's pretty amazing how many uses one little sauce can find. This easy caramel sauce works great on my bread pudding recipe that I have on the food recipes page, but it also have 100 more lives.

My easy caramel sauce recipe works great on homemade crepes, french toast, over ice cream, brownies and even in a glass of warm milk. It's uses are endless and as tasty as the sauce itsself. So enjoy my bread pudding with cinnamon with this easy caramel sauce and add some happiness to your life, one bite at a time.

Caramel sauce

Printable version of this Caramel sauce recipe (word doc)



1 cup sugar

1 cup water

3 tablespoons molasses

½ cup heavy cream

pinch salt


Instructions:


      1. Combine the sugar and the water together and bring to a boil.
      2. Boil mixture until volume has been reduced by half, this should take 10 minutes or so.
      3. Add the molasses and continue to boil.
      4. Now is the time to sample our syrup.  Take it off the heat and place a small drop on a knife tip or other metal object (a fork works too). When it has cooled rub this drop between your fingers. If the syrup feels think and sticky then you are ready to move on to the final step.
      5. The final step – Bring the syrup back to a simmer and add the heavy cream, making sure to whisk well. Bring back to a boil and reduce for 3 minutes or until visible thickening can be seen.
      6. From this point on it’s up to you how thick you would like the sauce. I pull it after 3 minutes and have a great tasting sauce for both bread pudding and crepes.
