Making caramel...

yup it is the truth, I am making caramel. Let's see how this batch goes. Second batch ever of making caramel.

The first batch was pretty bad, it's burnt and will not harden because I did it incorrectly DUH! The current batch is looking good. It isn't burning and it's slowly approaching 300 degrees Celsius. I think before my stove was too hot, so the temp skyrocketed to 300 that it just burnt! And I backed out of finishing steps because it was already ruined.

Hopefully this turns out better. Sadly I wasted a half of an organic vanilla pod, which costs $2.50. For two, I paid $10.

I am now at the 215 degree mark and I'm freaking out since it's getting browner every degree it raises....
