                      CARAMEL SYRUP
Ingredients :
Method:
  1. In a heavy-bottomed saucepan, add sugar and 1/2 cup of water. Place it over
     high heat, stirring continuously with a wooden spatula until the sugar
     dissolves. As it heats, the mixture will start to boil, bubble, and the color will
     begin to change.
  2. Continue stirring occasionally, but not constantly. Allow the color to
     transform into a rich, dark amber.
  3. When the desired color is achieved, turn off the stove and carefully remove the
     saucepan from the heat.
  4. Take all necessary precautions. Step back and extend your hand cautiously to
     pour a small amount of water while being mindful of splattering.
  5. Gradually add more water, allowing it to splatter gently. Once you've poured
     all of the remaining 1 cup of water, mix the contents thoroughly. Return the
     saucepan to the high flame and cook for 2 to 3 minutes until the mixture
     reduces slightly and thickens.
  6. Be sure not to overcook, as it can become very thick and difficult to pour once
     it cools down.
  7. When you turn off the stove, aim for a syrup with a relatively thin consistency.
     When it cools down, it should resemble the consistency of honey.
