Caramel And Scotch Sauce Food

WHISKY CARAMEL SAUCE

Steps:

• Cook sugar in a dry 2-quart heavy saucepan over moderate heat, undisturbed, until it begins to melt.
• Continue to cook, stirring occasionally with a fork, until sugar is melted into a deep golden caramel.
• Remove from heat and carefully add Scotch, butter, and salt (caramel will steam vigorously and harden). Cook over moderately low heat, stirring, until caramel is dissolved.
• Cool sauce to warm.

EASY CARAMEL SAUCE

Steps:

• Mix the brown sugar, half-and-half, butter and salt in a saucepan over medium-low heat. Cook while whisking gently for 5 to 7 minutes, until it gets thicker. Add the vanilla and cook another minute to thicken further. Turn off the heat, cool slightly and pour the sauce into a jar. Refrigerate until cold.

CARAMEL SAUCE

Steps:

• Mix the water and sugar in a medium heavy-bottomed saucepan. Cook over low heat for 5 to 10 minutes, until the sugar dissolves. Do not stir. Increase the heat to medium and boil uncovered until the sugar turns a warm chestnut brown (about 350 degrees F on a candy thermometer), about 5 to 7 minutes, gently swirling the pan to stir the mixture. Be careful - the mixture is extremely hot! Watch the mixture very carefully at the end, as it will go from caramel to burnt very quickly. Turn off the heat. Stand back to avoid splattering and slowly add the cream and vanilla. Don't worry - the cream will bubble violently and the caramel will solidify.
• Simmer over low heat, stirring constantly, until the caramel dissolves and the sauce is smooth, about 2 minutes. Allow to cool to room temperature, at least 4 hours. It will thicken as it sits.

BUTTERSCOTCH SAUCE

Steps:

• Dissolve the caster sugar with 3 tbsp water over a low heat. Bring to the boil but don't stir at all. When the sugar is a dark golden caramel, whisk in butter. Remove from the heat and stir in double cream.
