Cooking

Melt the Sugar
In a medium saucepan over medium heat, add the granulated sugar. Stir gently with a wooden spoon or silicone spatula as the sugar begins to melt.

Continue to Cook
Keep stirring the sugar until it completely melts and turns a deep amber color. Be careful not to burn it; this should take about 5-7 minutes.
- 4
Add Butter
Once the sugar is melted and has reached the right color, carefully add the unsalted butter. The mixture will bubble vigorously, so be cautious. Stir until the butter has fully melted and combined.

Incorporate Heavy Cream
Slowly pour in the heavy cream while stirring. The mixture will bubble again, but continue to stir until smooth. This should take about 2 minutes.

Add Sea Salt
Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the sea salt. Adjust the salt to taste if desired.
