Part 2/6:
Stirring: As the sugar starts to melt, reduce the heat to medium and stir gently with a spatula until it becomes a liquid caramel.
Adding Water: Once the sugar has fully melted, gradually introduce ½ cup of water. It is essential to add the water slowly, ensuring safety as the caramel will bubble and steam.
Thickening: Allow the mixture to boil for about 10 minutes until it thickens slightly. Afterward, pour the caramel into a round pudding mold (about 20 cm in diameter) and set it aside.
