I don't think I'll ever love a man as much as I love him. 

[Are44441]

I LOVE HIM :D

[rzyalik]

he looks like he has to piss

[oliviasfood1785]

Looks really good Chef! I'm a restaurant owner and recently posted a very simple recipe for caramel sauce. For anyone interested, check out the video. My channel is oliviasfood1785.

Enjoy, more simple videos to come!

[iMobinator]

If you need to go pee, do it before the vid. LOL jk. Your a great chef !

[samrigatoni]

when i made it that color, it tasted like cat shit with a hint of butter:l

[TheKklove09]

when he heated the pan nothing happened how long does he have to wait

[tinatreewood12]

he looks like he has to pee the whole time

[MrsMirrrr]

Why didn't you let him pee before the shoot?

[goatsnake]

GOODDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD­DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD­DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD­DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD­DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD­DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD­DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD­DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD­DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD­DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD­DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD­DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD­DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD­DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD­DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD­DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD­DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD

[watercatfish]

mine got all hard :P

[sageraistlan]

about the heavy cream, to all of you, I literally just go done doing this, and i used no heavey cream, the only problem I had was I MESSED up and over cooked a little, remember to pull it off the heat before you get to the color you want as it takes a bit for the caramel to cool, and continues to cook until it is cooled

[JoeGilliganfilms]

He is missing cream. This would harden into a sugar candy if you don't add cream to it. I know I tried.

[Jerry1V]

@JoeGilliganfilms Thank you for the tip! :)

[JoeGilliganfilms]

@Jerry1V Your welcome.

[metalandnigel]

how much suger to how much butter? please reply

[TheK4ever]

@metalandnigel You can use 100 grams of sugar... ;) I think it's enough.

[Julietalwayz90]

Do you use salted or unsalted butter?

[TheDoveman777]

@Julietalwayz90 unsalted:) If you are using heavy whipping cream, it mixs in a lot faster with the caramel if it's already hot, so you can heat in another pan while the sugar melts.

[JoeGilliganfilms]

@Julietalwayz90 You always use unsalted.

[heartsdeprived]

I feel like that would taste burnt...

[Julietalwayz90]

@heartsdeprived it does

[michaelbhs05yb]

@Julietalwayz90 Agreed. It looks past caramel, which for me is saying something--I like dark caramel.

[thetubeaccount]

@michaelbhs05yb he's making real caramel not store bought imitation

[michaelbhs05yb]

@thetubeaccount I make my own caramel too; I don't play that store-bought game. I've made enough burnt batches to be able to eyeball the color of the sugar necessary for caramel. Luckily, I was raised on Vietnamese cuisine, which uses burnt sugar, so no waste here.

[UncleMarioBoss]

Goes fine till I add the butter- then it burns...

[cherpagirl]

DELICIOUS!!

So trying this out!!!

[lopside0]

You know, I have the utmost respect for Ramsay as a chef and a professional, but this is a bad video. The pan he's using has a black bottom, so you really have no idea how dark the caramel is when he adds the butter. He's using a sautee pan, which can be dangerous if you're adding cream. He doesn't give any indication of the ratios. He's wearing a t-shirt, which can be a bad idea when making a sauce at over 300 degrees. This is just bad.

[jazzierocks1999]

@lopside0 and yet you are not famous and gordan ransay is

[jazzierocks1999]

@jazzierocks1999 I mean ramsay



[lopside0]

@jazzierocks1999 lulz, I never compared myself to him. So either your reading comprehension is waaaaaaay off, or you're picking fights with strangers on the internet. :) Awful kewl bro.

[radavil]

@jazzierocks1999 Actually, Lopside0 doesn't have to be famous to be right. If you've worked with food that is opaque and color is needed to be determined for a finished product, the color of the pan will matter. It's the same way when working with a beurre noisette. You need to see when the butter starts to carmelize so you can drizzle it over your product. Also, by not giving ratios, he's not giving the viewer pertinent information to be able to repeat the process.

[Jemima1377]

Why do all modern chefs think they need to move like they really need to go pee or are hyperactive?! It doesn't make the food any less good, if the chef and the camera are steady throughout the process... -_-.

I don't like this overly "dynamic" look of it much - it's just caramel, for god's sake. Stop trying to make it look cool and just cook...

Oh well, maybe it's just me and most of the other people out there like it this way... ^_^

[friscoway415]

"shake the pan nice and gently", and I can hear like a fucking machinery, besides his temper this guy is funny.

[quelvii]

Wait I though caramel gad cream in it

[imadirtyhacker]

tap 2 quikly thumbs up

[pinkbabyberry]

Shake the pan nice and gently ... Lol He almost killed the poor pan :

[mhmcupcakes]

lol anyone else laughed 0:19

haaaaaaaaaaa! 

[maggiemargareth]

okay this might be ridiculous but i think he's quite handsome.

[jumperchu]

he cheated on his wife

[nosirrahm]

@jumperchu and that means what to caramel?

[azareal]

This guy really need to go to the bathroom doesnt he?

[friscoway415]

@azareal LOL that was a good one.

[Overfall1]

1:13 <== Free "Let that butter melt" button.

[HoIidow]

How do you soften it? I just took it out and waited 2 minutes to cool down and then it went dry and went hard as fuck. Can anyone, please respond to this fast? I really don't have time and hoping it won't get harder.

[patchyu]

he didnt spit, he just blew on it lol

[thegamereviewer06]

Ingredients:

Sugar

Butter

And Spit??? 1:16

Now i know no one likes the caramel.

THEY FORGOT TO SPIT!!!

[mikkydayo]

@thegamereviewer06 lol

[Grimreaper06ify]

does it actually take 1:26 minutes to make this caramel

[AneeLeloo]

Errghh I Made This And It Tasted Terrible!!!

[PwNyHoRsE]

Hey, a few weeks ago i made a Tarte Tatin and followed the recipe exact. However it tasted TERRIBLY bitter/sour and i have no idea how, i even gave the caramel half the time that it should have and on low heat.

It'd be really awesome to get a serious answer to this anyone? :)

[InnuendoXP]

@PwNyHoRsE possible reasons:

-you took the sugar too far (burning a tiny amount is enough to throw off the flavour of all of it)

-you burned the milk solids in the butter

this caramel here is too dark for my liking btw

[michaelbhs05yb]

@PwNyHoRsE Innuendo's right. You can bring the sugar to a lighter color (don't worry about time) or swirl in a couple tablespoons of cold heavy cream to arrest the cooking. Heavy cream is useful because it travels through the sugar faster than solid butter could. If you burned the milk solids, make sure the butter is in constant motion next time. Also, use a sweeter variety of apples, or a combination.

[Toxic581]

I tried it and it tasted so badly! Yuck!

[emir895]

did he spit in it ???.... at ............1:15??

[pluckernil]

He should do more shows like this.

[blatherskitenoir]

ADD much?

[traveln3]

You rock Chef Ramsay! Thanks for the video :-)

[christhopher293]

the 8 ones that pressed dislike button don't have sugar and butter

[cbreeze123]

no cream? ok, looks good to me

[SugarKatie]

looks so easy, no cream needed. and i am supposed to shake the pan, not the sauce, right?

[btisawesome10]

Why does he keep moving forward then backward? like all the time.. =P

does he wanna go pee or something? NO HATING! I LOVE HIM.. just asking. =P

[LarseLarse]

@btisawesome10

If you watch his shows, he always does that for some reason(:

[Nicolosity]

NICE AND GENTLE? CLING CLANG CLING CLANG.

[YouBenTV]

well thats much easier than i expected, thanks gordon

[humandiseases]

Does Mr. Gordon Ramsay actually serve this? he must be joking when he said, "ready for dessert" it really made me lol!!!

[AveIvy]

That's it? Where's the fucking cream?

[rajisama]

Is it just me or is this suger laggy?

[sk8tafrnk]

@rajisama It's you.

[TheKimberlyLi]

"Shake the pan nice and gentley."

-BANG BANG BANG BANG-

[TheANiMeCrAzY21]

@dangdamon Oh god.. I cracked up so much :'D

[Magentasmoon]

@dangdamon I thought the same exact thing when I first saw this vid!

[mplsgurl37128]

I love Gordon, but he looks like he needs to visit the potty.

[jadeNyC718]

such an ez way to make caramel, Thanks! is it me...or is Gorden tweaking in this video.He looks like snorted a mountain of coke...well atleast he can afford his habit right?

[theSiinaa]

so easy, don't need water or milk

[pavo50ify]

@theSiinaa hah its almost midnight here and was debating to make carmel but sounds like it gets loud making the caramel..haha

[kitchenfromhell]

Anyone here at 3am made some caramel, and is eating icecream and caramelsauce?

[All7777Fever]

@kitchenfromhell what about 5 am, looking up sweetened condensed milk recipes while eating from the can?

[girlofsummer22]

he looks like he wanna go to the toilet!

[masterpellet3]

yep 4 am here

[Mauwable]

He looks so energetic right there :D Like a five year old waiting for sweets XD

[link1597]

ye sure nicce and gentle..

[salsa4dayz]

mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

[watercatfish]

do you have to use butter?

[chhuong1]

@watercatfish ye to cold down the caramel or it will burn

[Darkeh112]

@watercatfish no, but if you don't you won't be able to pour your caramel, you can add water or cream as well to thin it. When you do make sure you do it with a stretched arm though, because it will boil right away but it won't burn or anything.

[SpectacularNumanist]

jesus christ, so thats what caramel is made of? no wonder im so unhealthy

[Hellogoodbye90gm]

sugar and butter makes butterscotch...

[TheBomba747]

does he want to pee XD

[tommygirl20247]

I like him when hes not yelling :)

[mexycan2000]

I think I need to make me a caramel cake like in THE HELP... SMILE.

[johnfranky71]

why does he always look like he has to go pee! o_O

[kamlie25]

can i make caramel without using butter?

pls someone answer me now... thanks

[wankonbones]

@kamlie25 Absolutely. I never make it with butter. All caramel is heated sugar.

Heat sugar in a nonstick pan, and watch it slowly turn to a light brown, Warning!! Don't over cook it, burnt caramel is nasty! light brown is the color your looking for. The truth is your gonna find yourself doing this a few times before you get it right. Don't give up! When u get it, it's worth it.

[dancedanceeyeah]

Damn, why you jumpy bro.

[humannaturedj]

@dancedanceeyeah I couldn't focus because he wouldn't stand still! Lol

[SonidoDurango1]

wow, im not the only one thinking he is on coke. is that funny or sad? a friend once told me that a lot of chefs are degenerate druggies, he was a chef and a probably a degenerate as well. druggie, not sure but very much an alcoholic.

[AsterBarnivere]

When he was waiting for the sugar to melt, he looked fuckin' pissed, like he was gonna flip out and rage at the pan for not melting fast enough.

[xOxCrapWeaselxOx]

@AsterBarnivere The poor pan almost screamed out "YES CHEF ='("

[80VideosMan08]

Caramel - DONE.

[917MrRomario]

Is that really how u make Carmel wow -_-

[texasrisher]

That's perfect. Short, sweet, and to the point. As it should be. TY!

[FaliciaCFlatz]

Gordan: Shake the pan nice and gently *begins to strangle the handle of the pan*

Me: O_o I'd hate to see what 'roughly' looks like

[MasterFreespirit]

Can you say, "I LIKE COCAINE!!!!!!!!" ?

[wankonbones]

@MasterFreespirit "I'M DR. ROCKSO...I DO COCAINE"

[MasterFreespirit]

@wankonbones Ca-Ca-Ca-Ca--COCAINE!!!

[TheJungleanimal]

jesus chist..! he didn't say 'fucking' one single time...

[silverthornboy19]

Is he on crack why foes he keep moving

[veroniki1109]

thanks Gordon , u really helped me

[veroniki1109]

sugar only? no water?

[CornDoctor]

@veroniki1109 thats a french technique of doing it, there is a recipe from careme which calls for heating up sugar without any water. i think you can find it in larousse gastronomique. or escoffier.

[veroniki1109]

@CornDoctor ok i'll look for it...thanks again!!!! :)

[Snivy26]

I had a caramel square in my mouth when I was watching this.

[mawuvipaul]

is something wrong wit him he seems a little shaky

[SashaaIsabelle]

i tried this and mine was a total...... fail. aww :(

[Sabbath629]

Need to make caramel and theres a gordon ramsay video on it. Idk why, you just pay better attention and get more excited to cook when he's teaching.

[ZombehWolf]

You know, anything made with that much butter is okay in my books. =D

[MrRockey186]

Either his pants are to tight or he realy has to go pee...

[ZombehWolf]

@MrRockey186 Or he likes to dance while he cooks.  D=

[mocroroosje18]

my 6 year old little brother just said ''does he have to pee?'', I asked him why he thinks he hast to pee.. he said ''he moves allot'' LOL

[lizzieduong]

Isn't caramelised sugar + butter = toffee?

[thebreak1177]

WOW! Had no idea caramel was so easy!!

[briceislovable13]

@humankindslastchoice Omq yeesssss!! Lol

[ivory142]

I made this and it got hard really fast.

[therubixman]

@ivory142 that's what she said

[highlandcommando]

the guy does a mean scrambled egg

[JoeBurwoodd]

Sprinkle the cocaine into the pan...

[humankindslastchoice]

Ramsay*



[humankindslastchoice]

is it just me or does Ramsey look like he just took cocaine?

[avs72885]

@humankindslastchoice - He always looks like that but he takes great pride in himself that he never even tried drugs although he was somewhat of a bad boy when he was younger.

[ahothoneyb]

@humankindslastchoice I thought it was just me!

[Rejects4ever1]

@humankindslastchoice I know it's like woah slow down dude!

[andree1001]

When i tried this it ended up becoming just a big lump of caramel which wasn't really what i expected >.<

[LittoBUbbo]

sugar and butter = hard stuff unless u use corn syrup and heavy cream to make the caramel candies. i thoought he meant candies but i guess just the hard stuff u find as decorations for ice cream

[caspertoot]

wow sugar and butter? thats idiot proof

[gregamponsa]

what's the rush?

[mustamissdher]

love the recipe and information but Mr Ramsay really needs to drink less coffee.

[GingerCownsy]

Oh my God. I did this..it tastes so good lmao like a candy apple without the apple!

[28880]

I HAVE SUGAR!

I HAVE BUTTER!

but eating caramel by self is boring D":

[StarPinkx23]

so what the recipe

[tokenspaghettio]

@1337x1337x hahahahahahahahhaha same

[Imareject1]

I tried it. Had the same color. Tasted burnt x.x

[97sniper]

THIS STUFF SUCKS. I MADE SOME AND ITS TERRIBLE

[MrTaylork1]

@97sniper caramel is deceptively hard to get right. there's a tiny line between just right in darkness and burnt. most likely you burnt the shit out of it. not his fault.

[rockgirlxxx1]

does this guy need to go pee or wat?

[bl3ss3d0n3]

@rockgirlxxx1 I was thinking the SAME THING! lol He is jumping around almost uncontrollably!

[rockgirlxxx1]

@bl3ss3d0n3 yup!!!!!but very nice recipe

[DBSpy1]

Its to bad when you see a guy like this that could be a fantastic teacher,but you would be insane to get around him,very very sad what a waste.

[PiterNguyenPhouc]

now if you exuse me i have to pee 

[1337x1337x]

Anyone else sitting in front of there computer at 2 am wanting caramel, but didn't have any?

[DrGM818]

@1337x1337x YES XD

[SgtTwinkleToes]

@1337x1337x Its 3:24am for me...

[1337x1337x]

@SgtTwinkleToes Where the fuck are you from? It's like 3 pm in the U.S. right now.

[DeadlikeaPixel]

@1337x1337x There's this thing called time zones...

[SgtTwinkleToes]

@1337x1337x Ever heard of a country called Australia...

[1337x1337x]

@SgtTwinkleToes Indeed I have. Don't they like ride Kangaroos there or something? And all we eat in America is McDonalds. And all Canadians have sled dogs to ride. And all people from the UK have terrible teeth. And all Indians have unibrows. And all Irish men are always drunk. Well that ones kinda true...

[spongebob2151]

@1337x1337x LOL damn i wish i had a sled dog

[alexisannquirk]

@1337x1337x Here somehting KINDa like it. Take maple syrup and put it in a paper bowl. NOT Plastic. It will melt :P Put it in the micro for about 25 secs. If you see bubles when it ocme sout you got the right temp. Stir with a spoon or fork until it becomes stiff. Then if you pull it apart you got little string sthat dry instantly. OR just add when its not stiff then stir xD

[SoraRoxas111]

@1337x1337x you're scary good

[DaRkLoRdZoRc]

@1337x1337x Didn't you watch the video? Just go in the kitchen and grab some sugar and butter and you're good to go.

[Doctorchops]

@DaRkLoRdZoRc I think that was his point :D

[Naarraa]

@1337x1337x  yup me :D
