Caramelized walnut cream

Ingredients
  • 80 g cane sugar
  • 450 ml cream
  • 80 ml walnut oil
  • 30 g walnuts, chopped
  • 1 dash sea salt
  • Zest and juice from one lemon
Directions
  1. Caramelize the cane sugar in a pot over low heat until it has a beautiful, amber color.
  2. Add 200ml of cream and boil for 1-2 minutes until cream and sugar incorporate smoothly. Take the pot off the heat and strain the mixture into a bowl.
  3. Add chopped walnut, walnut oil, salt, and the rest of the cream and combine. Season with lemon juice and zest.
  4. Put the cream in the fridge. It is ready after an hour.
  • Tips

    Use this cream for extra taste in sweet dishes where a mild nutty flavor would be appropriate. You can substitute the cane sugar with 30g of walnut praline and 50g of cane sugar to achieve a even deeper flavor, particularly for cakes.
