Ingredients

  • ½ cup sugar
  • ¼ cup water
  • 2 tbsp butter melted
  • ¼ cup heavy cream
  • 1 tbsp white miso + a splash of water for slurry

Instructions

  • Make a slurry by combining white miso with a splash of water. Set aside.
  • Combine sugar and water in a saucepan. Heat to a simmer, stirring occasionally for about 5 minutes until dissolved (Do not stir once dissolved).
  • Increase heat to bring it to a boil. Swirl the pan often to allow even heating and prevent burning. Cook for about 5 min until the sauce turns into a copper color.
  • Turn off the heat and place a strainer over the pot. Steadily swirl in cream, butter, and miso in this order.
  • Let it cool for a few minutes, then pour the caramel out into a heat safe jar. Do not scrape the sides down.

Notes

  • This recipe yields about 1/2 cup of sauce. It can be used many times if you use only a spoonful or two per serving.
