1/4 cup light corn syrup |
3 tablespoons water |
1/4 cup unsalted butter, in 1 tbsp pieces |
1 teaspoon cider vinegar |

1. In a 1 1/2-quart heavy saucepan bring sugar, corn syrup, and water to a boil over moderate heat, stirring until sugar is dissolved. 2. Boil mixture, without stirring but swirling pan occasionally, until a golden caramel. 3. Remove pan from heat and add butter, vinegar, and a pinch salt, swirling pan until butter is melted. 4. Add cream and vanilla and simmer, stirring, 1 minute (sauce will be a golden brown). 5. Cool sauce to room temperature (sauce will thicken as it cools). 6. Refrigerate covered for up to 3 weeks. 7.
