    To start, prepare the cream because it needs time to stabilize.
Ingredients you will need:
Cream with a fat content of at least 30 %.
Butter with a fat content of 82 %.
Gelatin and water for soaking it.
Vanilla, salt, sugar.
  2. Soak the gelatin in water and leave it to swell. Cream is combined with butter and heated to a hot state. In a saucepan with a thick bottom, I pour out the sugar and heat it until it turns amber. Not interfering, but simply rolling from side to side. Important!!! sugar is not overexposed, otherwise the cream will be bitter. When all the sugar is dissolved, pour in HOT cream with butter and, without removing from the heat, mix until smooth. Remove from the heat and add salt and vanilla. Stir. I filter it through a sieve. Allow to cool slightly and add the swollen gelatin. I punch it with an immersion blender. I close the film in contact and put it in the refrigerator for 12 hours to stabilize. At the end of time, beat with a mixer for 3-4 minutes until a lush, airy state. The cream should be uniform with a pleasant, beautiful color! Like this!! Ready to use!
