Caramelizing How To

[Oriandu]

As someone with a lot of experience making caramel, uh, this isn't an accurate representation of making caramel. The caramel shown at the end is pretty much burnt to hell and would taste like someone vomited in your mouth.

thank god i got this video

[Shystarish]

you're my caramel rescue-er

[epiclabre]

I stirred mine a lot and it didn't turn into a crystallized mess. Am I Jesus?

Thanks for showing 'how to' and 'how not to'. Now I understand what I did wrong. I followed a receipe that said to add sugar and water and stir frequently. It never did turn amber or any other color other than white. It turned into a crystal, white useless mess. The trick is not to stir it at all but to just let it cook. I have also noted that most instructors do not even use water but rather allow the sugar to break down into an amber liquid all by itself.

I watched this video after sorts attempting this. I kept stirring, got the crystal mess, and melted THAT down to a nice toasted marshmellow hard candy. Nom, noms!

I've tried this for the first time and just as it has hardened in a dish I tried to chop the caramel of - a broken dish. So I'd recommend to use aluminum foil. x(
