Use a heavy-bottomed saucepan to prevent the sugar from burning. The color of the caramel is key to the flavor. A light amber will be sweeter, while a dark amber will have a deeper, more complex flavor. Be extremely careful when adding the cream, as the hot sugar can cause it to splatter. Use a long-handled whisk and pour slowly. Store the salted caramel sauce in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. Reheat gently before serving.
