Cardamom Bun Syrup Recipe
2 cups brown sugar
1 cup warm water
1 stick unsalted butter
50g cardamom pods (lightly crushed in a mortar and pestle. Fair warning, this might be boarder line too much cardamom. Use less if all you have is cardamom powder)
Pinch of salt
Brown the butter over medium high heat, until it has turned an amber color and smells nutty but not burnt. Make sure to stir often to avoid burning the milk solids.
Remove from heat and stir in sugar, cardamom, and salt. Place back on medium heat and slowly add your warm water. Simmer gently for 10-15 minutes.
Transfer to a container and cool in the fridge until the butter separates and solidifies on top. Remove the solid butter, strain, and you’re good to go.
The syrup will still taste buttery even though we’re removing it from our finished syrup.
