Sauces
Caramel Sauce
While we love this sauce on our ice creams,
it can also be used as a dipping sauce for fruit and cake.
Makes about ¾ cup (175 ml)
¾
cup (175 ml) granulated sugar
½
teaspoon (2 ml) sea salt
¼
cup (50 ml) water (enough so that the consistency
when mixed with the sugar and salt is similar to wet
sand)
1
tablespoon (15 ml) light corn syrup
¹∕³
cup (75 ml) heavy cream
3
tablespoons (45 ml) unsalted butter,
cut into ½-inch (1.25 cm) cubes
1.
In a medium, heavy-bottomed saucepan, stir together
the sugar, salt, water and corn syrup. Be sure to clean
the inside walls of the pan if there is any sugar on the
sides (a clean, wet pastry brush works best). Set over
medium-low heat and cook until the sugar mixture turns
a very light amber color (about 10 to 15 minutes). Keep
a close eye on the caramel sauce as it can burn easily.
2.
Once the sugar mixture has a light amber color, take it
off the stove and slowly and carefully stir in the cream.
After the cream has been incorporated, slowly whisk in
the butter, one piece at a time, continually whisking to
emulsify until all the butter has been added. Use
immediately, or keep warm over a pot of warm water.

½

pour over the reserved chocolate and let sit for five
minutes before whisking to combine. Use immediately,
