Default Butterscotch

Here's a recipe ya'll might enjoy. I don't think I've made real
butterscotch in quite some time, so it's about time. It's excellent on
vanilla ice cream or bread pudding. One fly in the ointment, it's the
deuce to find non-ultra pasturized heavy whipping cream. Oh, not so
hard for you metropolitans, but for us outlanders, where I'm surrounded
by miles of cattle and not a milk cow in the batch. I think I can make
UP HWC work ok, though.

Darn you! The thought of a butterscotch-hot fudge vanilla ice cream
sundae with chopped salted peanuts is just about driving me crazy this
morning.

It's not *that* easy to find for us either.

I think Clover brand has an un-UP HWC. PW markets carry Clover. How about
TJ's?

Smart & Final carries UP HWC, too, although it's in 1/2 gallon
cartons...

I don't _think_ TJ's carries it, though, or the three I shop at
don't. 1/2-and-1/2, and organic 1/2-and-1/2 but not UP HWC...

I'm not even sure un-UP is really necessarry. Seems to me it's just an
affectation of snotty French chefs and American wannabes, now that I think
about it.

TJs heavy cream is just pasteurized..not ultra-pasteurized.
Also, in the sfba, Berkeley Farms is not ultra-pasteurized. At least
it wasn't when I was there.

Yes they do. At least every TJs I have been to, has always carried
it. Even in the sfba.

The last issue of Saveur magazine was all about butter. Here is their
butterscotch recipe.

I sympathize with you, It is very hard and frustrating trying to find
non-ultra pasteurized heavy cream. The only place I've found it was at
Trader Joes.

Have you made it yet? I'm getting my ingredients for it tomorrow.

Why does it have to be non-ultra pasturized? I'm just curious...

I've been looking it up on the net. Evidently, ultra-pasteurized is heated
to a higher temp longer, which increases it ability to withstand spoilage.
No bugs, no spoil. I can attest to this, having kept UP/HWC for almost two
months without a problem. But apparently, the extended pasteurization
process also degrades the quality and flavor, so good chefs and food purists
eschew it. Like I said before, for making butterscotch, I doubt it is a
problem to use UH/HWC. Who's gonna taste it with all the brown sugar, anyway?

Isn't that butter rum? I don't do alcohol-based foods, but my mom
says there's a big difference to her between butterscotch and butter
rum.

I live in a large Canadian city, but none of my local grocers carries
whipping cream that hasn't been adulterated with carageenan or other
thickeners and stabilizers. I'm having the same problem with other
dairy products as well, particularly sour cream. The only commercial
ice cream I can buy that doesn't contain gums, stabilizers and
thickeners is Haagen Dazs and, while I'd like to make my own, finding
"whipping cream" that is that and nothing more is well nigh impossible.

You can use heavy cream too. It just takes a little bit more effort to
get it to transition.

As far as I recall, at least in the part of Canada in which I live,
"whipping cream" and "heavy cream" are the same thing, ie, cream with a
35% butterfat content. The other creams available here are 18%
("cereal" or "table" cream) and 10% ("half and half"), and milk is
either 4% ("homogenized"), 2%, 1%, or skim ("nonfat").
