• Reduce the heat to low. Slowly pour in a little bit of the heavy cream. The mixture will bubble. When it begins to recede, carefully whisk to incorporate the cream. Continue adding the cream in increments, stirring to incorporate.
• Once the cream is incorporated, stir in the salt. Increase the heat to medium-high and cook for 10-12 minutes more, until the caramel reaches 250°F (120°C) on an instant read thermometer.
