Want something a bit different for LUXURIOUS BREAKFASTS that you can make at home? This salted caramel mascarpone by TRISH DESEINE is perfect for toast or crepes on a CHILLY WINTER DAY …
10 minutes preparation/10 minutes cooling
200 g sugar
4 four tablespoons water
100 g salted butter at room temperature
4 tablespoons mascarpone at room temperature
1. Pour the sugar and then the water into a heavy based saucepan. The sugar should be soaked in the water before starting to cook.
2. Heat very gently, so that the sugar dissolves and becomes. Do not stir as crystals might form.
3. Continue heating until the syrup starts to bubble. Let it cook for a few minutes until you see the colour start to darken around the edges. Swirl the saucepan to help the caramel form evenly. When it is a rich brown, take it off the heat and add the butter and mascarpone. Stir with a wooden spoon. Be careful it does not splutter, spit and burn you!
4. Stir well, if there are a few lumps, put the saucepan back on the heat but do not let the sauce boil vigorously.
5. Leave to cool and use warm or cold. It will harden to spreading consistency when chilled.
