Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 12 ounces (340g) white chocolate (a block or in fêves (as shown))
  • pinch of flaky sea salt

Instruction

  • Preheat the oven to 250F (120 C)
  • Chop the white chocolate it into coarse pieces.
  • Distribute the white chocolate on a rimmed baking sheet and heat for ten minutes.
  • Remove it from the oven and spread it with a clean, dry spatula.
  • Continue to cook for and additional 30-60 minutes, stirring at 10 minute intervals. At some points it may look lumpy and chalky (and even unpleasant), but keep stirring and it will smooth out and caramelize.
  • Cook until the white chocolate is deep-golden brown, and caramelized. Stir in a good pinch of sea salt.
  • If it’s lumpy, scrape it into a bowl and smooth it out with an immersion blender, or in a food processor.
  • Store in a jar, at room temperature, until ready to use. It should keep for several months, if stored in a cool, dry place.
