Sea Salt and Honey Hokey Pokey

I finally accept as true with waxed lyrical prior to on the enjoyment of a handmade suitable for eating gift. Whereas some such items steal grand advance planning and preparation, my jog-to for a last minute contemporary is that this. It comes together in underneath 30 minutes and, handiest of all, you presumably accept as true with every little thing for your cupboards already.

I’ve also waxed lyrical prior to on the enjoyment of caramel. Properly here the two advance along with gorgeous elevate out. Some name it cinder toffee, some name it honeycomb, I name it hokey pokey. With out reference to title you ought to accept as true with to provide it, it’s all about the sugar, it’s all about the caramel.

I’ll steal a 2d to recap the golden suggestions of caramel now. With out reference to you originate, originate no longer jog. You would possibly perhaps presumably per chance per chance presumably additionally accept as true with a small of patch of unmelted sugar during the pan. If that is the case, gently swirl the pan to mix. Stirring will lead to crystallisation and your efforts will doubtless be wasted. The 2d vital component: accept as true with patience. Or no longer it’s a need to-accept as true with to explore your caramel always; it adjustments instant and would possibly perhaps presumably per chance well jog from golden to burnt quicker than you presumably can factor in. That mentioned, don’t be haunted of a dusky, rusty penny color. That’s the establish the precise flavour is available in.

Feel free to skip the salt here. You would possibly perhaps presumably per chance per chance presumably additionally leave it undeniable or drizzle some dusky chocolate over the highest. For me the salt cuts thru the unheard of sweetness of the sugar, and it finally is intense.
