Ingredients
Scale
- 240 g granulated sugar
- 200 ml milk
- 70 g salted butter
Instructions
- Melt the sugar: pour the sugar into a heavy-bottomed saucepan and heat over medium heat.
- Let it melt without stirring (tilt the pan if needed) until it reaches a light amber colour, without letting it get too dark.
- Add the butter first: remove from the heat, add the butter in cubes, and stir until melted. The mixture may look separated at first; this is normal.
- Add the milk while continuing to cook: return to low heat and pour in the milk gradually, stirring constantly.
- Continue cooking for a few minutes, until the caramel is fully dissolved and the sauce is smooth and even.
- Cool and store: let it cool slightly, then pour into a clean jar. Store in the refrigerator for later use.
