SALTED CARAMEL ICE CREAM



Salted Caramel Ice Cream image

This luxurious ice cream is the ideal balance of sweet yet salty and rich yet light. It's custard-based, which means you have to separate a lot of eggs (six), but the thick and silky results are worth a little bit of fuss. For something a little lighter, use more milk and less cream, as long as the dairy adds up to three cups. You can also cut down on egg yolks for a thinner base, but don't go below three. Despite the rumors, making caramel is not hard, but it can be a little tricky. If this is your first time, make sure you have enough sugar for a second batch in the event your first is a bust. Also, remove the cooking caramel from the heat just before you think you need to to prevent burning.

Time 30m

Yield About 1 1/2 pints

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 ¼ cups granulated sugar
2 cups heavy cream
1 cup whole milk
1/8 teaspoon fine sea salt
6 large egg yolks
1/4 teaspoon flaky sea salt (such as Maldon)

Steps:

  • In a medium pot over medium heat, melt 3/4 cup sugar with 3 tablespoons water, swirling skillet frequently, until sugar turns mahogany brown in color (it should be almost but not quite black).
  • Add heavy cream, milk, remaining 1/2 cup sugar and the salt; simmer mixture until caramel melts and cream mixture is completely smooth. Remove pot from heat. In a separate bowl, whisk yolks. Whisking constantly, slowly whisk about a third of the hot cream into the yolks, then whisk the yolk mixture back into the pot with the cream.
  • Return pot to medium-low heat and gently cook until mixture is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon (about 170 degrees on an instant-read thermometer).
  • Strain through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl. Cool mixture to room temperature. Cover and chill at least 4 hours or overnight.
  • Churn in an ice cream machine according to manufacturer's instructions. Sprinkle flaky sea salt into base during the last 2 minutes of churning. Serve directly from the machine for soft serve, or store in freezer until needed.

SALTED SOFT CARAMELS



Salted Soft Caramels image

Velvety smooth homemade caramels have a sprinkling of kosher salt to create a sweet-salty sensation. Best of all, these caramels don't call for each to be wrapped in waxed paper or plastic wrap...a very tedious chore. The hot caramel is poured into miniature muffin liners instead. -Kathryn Conrad, Milwaukee, Wisconsin

Provided by adopt a greyhound

Categories     Breakfast

Time 1h

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 cups old fashioned oats, toasted
1/2 cup flax seed
1 cup almonds
1 cup water
1/2 cup sugar
3 tablespoons cream
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 tablespoons honey
1 tablespoon grapeseed oil (or vegetable oil. olive oil, or melted coconut oil)
1/2 teaspoon sea salt

Steps:

  • Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside. Preheat the oven to 300°F.
  • In a large bowl, toss together the toasted oats, flax seeds, and almonds. Set aside.
  • Add the water to a small saucepan. Pour the sugar into the center of the pan (in a pile so it doesn't touch the sides). Bring it to a boil and then reduce the heat just a little to medium high. Let the mixture cook. It will need to simmer for about 10 minutes until it turns a pretty amber caramel color. WATCH IT CLOSELY! It goes from perfect to burn pretty quickly.
  • When the color looks right, place the pan in the sink. Add the milk or cream. The mixture will sizzle and bubble up. Stir quickly until it's smooth, then stir in the vanilla. Pour the caramel over the oats and almonds and toss to coat.
  • Add the honey and oil to the same saucepan. Heat over medium until they blend. Scrape into the bowl.
  • Use a spatula to turn the mixture over a few times. Scrape onto the prepared baking sheet in an even layer. Sprinkle with the sea salt.
  • Bake for about 30 minutes. Let it cool completely. The granola will scrape off the parchment in oat clusters.
  • Notes.
  • To toast the oats, preheat the oven to 350°F. Scatter the oats evenly across the bottom of a 9 X 13 pan, and let them toast in the oven, stirring at least once, for about 15 minutes.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients, especially for the salted caramel sauce. This will make a big difference in the overall flavor of the cookies.
  • Make sure the butter and eggs are at room temperature before you start baking. This will help the cookies to come together more easily and will result in a more tender cookie.
  • Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing can make the cookies tough.
  • Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking. This will help the cookies to hold their shape and will prevent them from spreading too much.
  • Bake the cookies until they are just set. Overbaking will make them dry and crumbly.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before dipping them in the salted caramel sauce. This will help the sauce to set and will prevent it from running off the cookies.

Conclusion:

Salted caramel spritz cookies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. With their buttery, shortbread-like texture and their sweet and salty flavor, these cookies are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them.
