METHOD

For the vanilla crepes


  1. Melt the butter in "bain-marie".
  2. Mix all the ingredients.
  3. Let the mixture rest at room temperature.

For the homemade caramel

 

  1. In a large thick-bottom saucepan, melt the sugar over low heat with 2 tablespoons of water.
  2. When the caramel begins to get brown, stir constantly with a wooden spoon until you get a soft, fluid and smooth caramel.
  3. Add the cream. Please note that the hot-cold reaction will cause a big bubbles, which is normal.
  4. Important: the fire must be very soft. When the caramel is smooth and clear, let it cool down slightly before adding the butter cut into small pieces and the pinch of Guerande salt.
