Notes

Storage Instructions

  • Make ahead: You can make this sauce up to 3 days in advance. Store it in an airtight container in the fridge.
  • Reheat: Gently warm it in a saucepan over low heat or microwave in short bursts, stirring in between.
  • Freeze: Technically yes, but it’s not ideal. The texture might get a little weird after thawing, so it’s best enjoyed fresh or refrigerated.
