Hi! Good day. Why some method says to leave it boil without stirring? What's the different?

[@sweetcountrylivinginmichigan]

I think it has to do with the sugar crystals on the side of the pan. Thank you for your comment and thank you for watching.

@@sweetcountrylivinginmichigan i made a batch just now and when i poured it into the pan, the oil from the butter is separated from the caramel. Why was that happened and how to fix it?
