Servings: 6

 

Ingredients:

¼ teaspoon coarse salt

¾ cup heavy cream

½ cup pumpkin puree

1 cup sugar

½ teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Equipment:

sauce pan

spatula

whisk

microwave

Cooking instruction summary:

In a large, deep, sturdy saucepan, spread the sugar in an even layer and place over low to medium low heat. Watch it carefully. Once it starts to liquefy around the edges, use a rubber spatula to very gently stir it towards the center. Continue gently stirring until all of the sugar is melted, but take care not to over stir. Once the caramel reaches a deep amber color, immediately remove it from the heat. Carefully whisk in half the cream, which will bubble and steam quite violently. Stir until the cream is thoroughly combined, then whisk in remaining cream and pumpkin. Stir in the salt, cinnamon and vanilla. If any sugar has hardened, place the saucepan over low heat and whisk until smooth. The caramel will be a bit thicker than normal caramel. Whisk in up to ¼ cup more cream, if desired, for a thinner consistency. Refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks. The sauce can be rewarmed in the microwave or in a saucepan set over low heat. Add additional cream if the sauce is too thick.

Food Trivia

Canola oil was originally called rapeseed oil, but rechristened by the Canadian oil industry in 1978 to avoid negative connotations. 'Canola' is short for 'Canadian oil.'

Food Joke

A young family moved into a house next door to a vacant lot. One day a construction crew turned up to start building a house on the empty lot. The young family's 6 year old daughter naturally took an interest in all the activity going on next door and started talking with the workers. She hung around and eventually the construction crew - gems in the rough, all of them - more or less adopted her as a kind of project mascot. They chatted with her, let her sit with them while they had coffee and lunch breaks,and gave her little jobs to do here and there to make her feel important. At the end of the first week they even presented her with a pay envelope containing a dollar. The little girl took this home to her mother who said all the appropriate words of admiration and suggested that they take the dollar pay she had received to the bank the next day to start a savings account. When they got to the bank the teller was equally impressed with the story and asked the little girl how she had come by her very own pay check at such a young age. The little girl proudly replied, "I've been working with a crew building a house all week". "My goodness gracious", said the teller, "and will you be working on the house again this week too"? "I will if those useless morons at the lumber yard ever bring us the f****** bricks", replied the little girl.
