Equipment

  • 1 Sauce Pan

Ingredients

  • ¾ cup Sugar
  • ¼ cup Water
  • ½ cup Heavy Cream
  • 2 tablespoon Miso Paste White Miso

Instructions

  • Place the granulated sugar: and water into the saucepan and place on a medium heat. Stir the water and sugar together until the sugar appears to have “dissolved”. It is key when you are making caramel not to stir after this point. Caramel comes together on its own and becomes a beautiful deep golden brown. Sugar crystals can appear and ruin the caramel if you have additional stirring. 
  • Bring it to a boil: ​While the mixture comes to a boil and turns golden brown, use a wet pastry brush to brush any sugar down from the sides of the pot.
  • When it turns golden brown: or begins to have wisps of smoke, remove from the heat and pour in the cream. This will cause the caramel to bubble and that is okay! Stir while it does this. If the caramel seizes and hardens, return to the heat for a few minutes while you stir until it becomes liquid again.
  • Add the miso paste: and whisk. Pour out of the pot into your storing vessel or use immediately.

Notes

*the addition of the cold cream to the warm sauce can cause it to harden but remember not to panic! Just look to the last step.
