Notes
Storage
- Refrigerate miso caramel sauce in an air-tight container or lidded jar for up to 2 weeks. You can also freeze it in an air-tight container for up to 3 months. When you are ready to enjoy it, thaw it in the fridge overnight. When you are ready to reheat it, warm it in a microwave shortly or or on the stove over low heat.
- Use high-quality Grade A maple syrup for the best caramel sauce flavor.
- Keep a close eye on the maple syrup to prevent it from burning.
- Allow the miso to reach room temperature before adding it to the mixture so it blends in easier.
- Stir the sauce gently after adding the cream and butter to prevent it from crystalizing.
