What Would Newton Have Made of Caramel?


Last night I made caramel and chocolate apples for the office. Every now and again some strange urge comes over me and I think I'm channeling Martha Stewart. I am not. If this same urge overtakes you, a word of caution. "Simple caramel apples" are not simple. Nor can you "whip them up in half an hour." That said, I felt especially proud today to pass out my treats. Because I made them with my own hands. In only 4 and a half hours. C'est la vie.


One more bit of advice: a quick dip in boiling water will take the wax off of your apples. And this is good because caramel does not adhere to wax. At all.
