A few tips to make a successful caramel:
-
Do not mix the hot sugar with a spatula or other kitchen utensil, the sugar will crystallize. To stir, gently shake the pan on the round.
-
It is important to watch the caramel carefully, otherwise it could burn.
-
The darker a caramel is, the more bitter it will be. For a burnt caramel (like this recipe) be sure to let the sugar caramelize long enough to darken it, without it smelling burnt. Otherwise, the caramel will be very bitter.
