Meanwhile, combine sugar and 1/4 cup water in medium heavy-bottomed saucepan. Cook over medium-high heat until the sugar is dissolved. Dampen a clean pastry brush and brush down any sugar crystals from the sides of the pan. Boil, swirling the pan occasionally, until the sugar turns deep amber, 10 to 12 minutes. Immediately pour the caramel into the baking pan and swirl to coat to the bottom. Allow it to set, 5 to 10 minutes.

Recommended wine: Tempranillo, Albarino, Grenache

Tempranillo, Albarino, and Grenache are my top picks for Spanish. When pairing wine with Spanish dishes, why not follow the rule 'what grows together goes together'? We recommend albariño for white wine and garnachan and tempranillo for red. The CVNE Seleccion de Fincas Tempranillo with a 4.3 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 17 dollars per bottle.
