Some advice, you can take the caramel a lot darker. When it reaches the desired color hit it with a splash of water and that will stop the cooking process. I frequently work with caramels and the ideal color is seconds before it burns. Cheers great video though!

oh and the one i had was a bit lighter on the top. how come your is darker. or why was theirs lighter.

[cookingwithalia]

yes, you are right. the color depends on the caramel. Caramel is basically burnt sugar, so the more your burn it, the darker it is and the bitter its taste is. The original French tarte tatin is darker in europe than it is here, because european prefer a slight bitter taste into it versus americans who prefer the sweeter taste, hence the lighter color of the caramel. hope this helps! cheers.

[mid918]

yes that helps. thanks very much.

is this a french recipe or a recipe used in morocco alot?

[cookingwithalia]

This is a French recipe. However, Moroccan food has dishes from Spain and France (due to our intertwined history). You will find that bakeries in Morocco sell many French desserts, so I will be making videos about French baking as well. hope this helps :-)
