Ingredients:
Instructions:
- In a medium-sized saucepan, sprinkle the sugar evenly over the bottom.
- Place the saucepan over medium heat and allow the sugar to melt, stirring occasionally to ensure even melting.
- Continue to cook until the sugar turns a deep amber color. Be careful not to burn it.
2. Incorporate the Milk:
- Once the sugar has caramelized, slowly add the milk into the saucepan. The mixture will bubble vigorously, so be cautious.
- Stir continuously until the bubbling subsides and the mixture is smooth.
- Remove the saucepan from the heat.
- Stir in the butter and vanilla extract until fully incorporated.
- In a separate bowl, lightly whisk the egg yolks with a dash of salt.
- Slowly pour the hot caramel mixture into the egg yolks while whisking constantly to prevent the eggs from scrambling.
5. Cook the Mixture:
- Pour the combined mixture back into the saucepan.
- Cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens slightly and coats the back of a spoon. Do not let it boil.
- Pour the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a clean bowl to remove any small lumps.
- Allow the mixture to cool slightly at room temperature.
- Once cooled, transfer the mixture into individual serving dishes or ramekins.
- Cover the dishes with plastic wrap and place them in the refrigerator.
- Chill for at least 4 hours or until set.
- To serve, you can garnish with a dollop of whipped cream or a sprinkle of sea salt, if desired.
- Enjoy your caramel pots chilled.
Tips:
- Make sure to continuously stir the sugar as it melts to prevent burning.
- Gradually add the milk to the caramel mixture to prevent any splattering or curdling.
- Strain the final mixture through a fine sieve to ensure a smooth texture.
- Allow the caramel pots to cool at room temperature before transferring them to the refrigerator.
- Chill the pots for at least 2 hours, but overnight chilling yields the best results for a firm texture.
With just a handful of ingredients, you can create a truly special dessert that exudes elegance and flavor. These Caramel pots are not only delicious but also relatively easy to make. Whether you're hosting a dinner party or treating yourself, this recipe is bound to be a hit. Enjoy the rich, creamy goodness and savor every bite!
