You won't believe miso is the culprit behind this deep, umami, salted caramel-like sauce.
This sauce's unique flavor makes it a go-to base for savory and sweet dishes alike!
In a sauce pan over medium high heat combine sugar and water. Bring to a boil and cook until deep golden brown. Remove from heat.
In a bowl gently mix together heavy cream, miso, and vanilla just until miso begins to dissolve. Add to pan with caramelized sugar and return to stove over medium heat. Whisk until fully incorporated and remove from heat immediately. Cool and hold refrigerated until needed.
Chef's Tip!
Use this caramel as a drizzle over ice cream, desserts, or even try on savory items like these Miso Caramel Pork Skewers!
