Print Recipe
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups sugar
- 1/3 cup water
- 1 1/4 cups heavy cream used 2 cups by accident, oops.
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
- 1 vanilla bean sliced and seeded
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
Instructions
- Slice a vanilla bean in half. Using the back of the knife, scrape the seeds from the pod.
- Pour the cream into a measuring cup and add the vanilla bean scrapings, and sea salt. Set aside.
- Put the sugar and water in a saucepan over medium heat. Bring the sugar to a boil. Let the sugar cook (do not stir using a spoon, at most, you may swirl the pan to avoid hot spots) until it reaches a deep amber color.
- Whisk in the cream mixture. It will bubble and go nuts, but keep whisking. It will come together.
- Pour into a jar and keep in the fridge. The sauce will thicken, but it is more of a loose sauce.
