How can you make a butterscotch sauce without cream?

1 egg

1/4 c. water

1/3 c. white corn syrup

1/4 c. butter

If you can't use butter due to allergies use a soy butter it tastes just as good, along with if you cannot use the egg, boil one cup of flax with two cups of water and then let stand over night after it is strained, use 2 tbs as a egg substitute. If you use a real egg make sure you are constantly whisking it over the double boiler, because you could end up making scrambled eggs. Also you can use brown corn syrup,, although it will then have a sweeter taste. I hope this answer and recipe helps.

Honeycomb tripe is used as food. Soups, stews usually in highly spiced dishes. Very little flavor by itself.

Salted or unsalted butter best for baking?

Regular butter will make your food taste slightly saltier, but can usually be used in place of unsalted butter.

In many baked items the proportion of ingredients has a direct effect on the finished product. Not just the flavor. The interaction of salt and sugar with leavening agents such as yeast and with the gluten in the flour can affect the rise of the product and the finished texture. Baking is a science. A small change in proportion can have a big effect.

Are whipped topping and heavy cream the same thing?

Although it's normally made from heavy cream, whipped topping includes sugar (and possibly vanilla) when heavy cream doesn't. At least all whipped cream recipes I've looked at call for sugar. Plus air is incorporated and I don't know what effect using as a sub for heavy cream would have. Anyway, I would say no, not really.
