  • ¼ cup water

    Gently shake or swirl the pan to move the caramel, but stirring the sugar will form crystals. Do not splash on sides of pan.
  • Once the sugar is melted and a rich copper color, reduce heat to very low and add whipping cream and butter. It will bubble up so ensure you have a large enough pan. Remove from heat. Add vanilla and sea salt. Vigorously stir until everything is incorporated.
