    Today we are going to make caramel apples covered in chopped peanuts, one of my favorite childhood fall snacks but they are so much better homemade. I’ve screwed up caramel many times before but today I’m sharing a foolproof caramel recipe courtesy of Sally’s Baking Addiction’s (sallysbakingaddiction.com/hom...)

    My family owns an orchard in CT that used to make thousands of caramel apples every year. This looks like a great technique to me. Two changes I would suggest: putting the stick in the bottom of the apple helps it to stand more stable when done. And taking the dipped apple and immediately roll on its side in the peanuts and then stand it up on a bed of peanuts to coat the bottom. Any delay cools the caramel and prevents the nuts from sticking.
    Other popular versions we used to make: caramel with crushed toffee on the outside instead of peanuts, and red cinnamon candy coating with shaved coconut topping.

    I used to work at a theme park and I learned to make caramel and fudge dipped apples. First we would check the apples for bruises, take the sticker off, de-stem them and soak them in hot water to remove the carnauba wax, sometimes soak them twice because it had a very thick layer and if the wax wasn’t properly washed off then the caramel and fudge would slide right off. I found out that the wax was only to make the apple shiny and appetizing, not for any other reason.

      Be sure to temper your chocolate. Hold back 60% of you chocolate and heat and melt in stages. It will have a glossy finish and be much smoother.

    A side note on the candy theme...as I was making a large batch of hummingbird water I got distracted and let the water boil down to a brown goo. I was determined to not let all that sugar go to waist so I added a can of peanuts and poured it out on a cookie sheet. Best peanut brittle I ever had, a little burnt taste ( I like that) a nd very crunchy

    Could be worth a try - really would be ideal for this recipe.
    Also TEMPER (melt in stages) your chocolate - so you get that glossy smooth finish.

    I need to try eating and making Caramel Apples, thanks for sharing this video 👍. In New Zealand we eat Toffee Apples (which I am an absolute pro at making) which is a Granny Smith apple and covered in a hard clear toffee and then we add red food colouring. This is a childhood treat but you only get this from school fairs, cake stall (bake sale) or local festivals. And just as a hack I use disposable chop sticks (one stick only) as I find this is sturdier than the kebab skewer. Always love your videos Stephen 👍

      It’s all about contrast .
      Sweet & a bit sour.

      It sounds like you have done this before? I do not have a “candy thermometer” like what was mentioned here in this video to use. I only have a thermometer that is the kind that you would stick into meat, even though I’m a vegetarian lol. Is there an actual difference between a “candy thermometer,“ and the kind of thermometer that I have? The kind that I have goes up to 392°F. That would do the trick, no?
      I’ve always wondered what a “candy thermometer“ is… Does it merely mean that it goes up to a very high temperature that surpasses what my thermometer can do?
      The only time I have ever made caramel for caramel apples is by taking all of the wrappers off of caramels that I buy in the store, and I would like to do it the way that it is done in this video, but I hope that I wouldn’t have to buy another thermometer to do it lol.

      @@anti-ethniccleansing465 a "candy thermometer" just has the temperature range for the different sugar stages marked, so you don't have to remember them / look up every time you'll make some sort of cooked sugar... It's pretty much a regular cooking / imersion thermometer otherwise (most people actually use them more for oil temperatures than sugar). It MAY get to higher temperatures than a meat thermometer (that you'll only ever want to cook to 160-ish), but if yours go to 392F it should be fine
