  • If you like salted caramel, then you'll LOVE these Miso Caramel Bars. The miso adds a salty funky umami to the caramel, making it perfectly sweet & salty. People won't be able to tell that it's miso in there but they'll be going back for another piece. Buttery oat crumble base and dark chocolate rounds out this bar. It's an easy no mixer recipe, perfectly suited to make you the star of your next bake sale!
    Miso Caramel Bar Recipe
    Miso Caramel
    - 200g (1 cup) sugar
    - 60g (1/4 cup) water
    - 85g (1/4 cup) corn syrup (sub honey)
    - 56g (4 tbsp) unsalted butter
    - 150g (1/2 cup + 2 tbsp) heavy cream
    - 60g (3 tbsp) miso paste (sub 1/2 tsp salt)
    - 1 tsp vanilla extract
    - 12g (1 tbsp) AP flour
    Oat Bar
    - 175g (1 1/4 cups) AP flour
    - 160g (1 1/4 cup)rolled oats (can sub instant oats but the texture will be slightly different)
    - 150g (3/4 cup) brown sugar, packed
    - 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
    - 1 tsp baking powder
    - 1/4 teaspoon salt (table salt or fine sea salt)
    - 12 tablespoons (170g) unsalted butter, melted
    - 170g (1 cup) bitter-sweet chocolate chips (or chocolate chunks)
    Make Miso Caramel
    1. In a heavy-bottomed saucepan, place sugar, water, and corn syrup. Cook over medium heat and stir just until the sugar has dissolved. Cover with the lid and cook for 5 minutes. Then, take off the lid and keep on boiling. From this point on, do not stir the caramel, but swirl the pan to even out the cooking. Continue cooking while not stirring, until the sugar turns a rich amber colour. The pan may begin to start slightly smoking.
    2. Add in butter and stir to combine. Cook for one minute until you can smell browned butter. Add in cream and stir. Be careful - the caramel will bubble and steam. Stir until bubbling subsides and cook for one more minute.
    3. Turn off the heat and immediately and add vanilla. Then, add in miso paste. Stir or whisk until fully combine. Whisk in flour.
    4. Set caramel sauce aside and let cool while making the rest of the bar.
    Make Bar
    1. Pre-heat oven to 350F (175C). Line a 9" x 9" pan with greased aluminum foil.
    2. In a large bowl, combine flour, oats, brown sugar, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Stir or whisk to combine well. Drizzle in melted butter and stir until evenly combined. The mixture will be thick and lumpy.
    3. Add roughly half of mixture to the prepared pan. Use your hands or a spatula to press the mixture into an even layer.
    4. Bake for 10 minutes.
    5. Take the bar out of the oven and evenly sprinkle with chocolate chips. Pour all of the miso caramel over the chocolate. Use a spatula to spread out caramel. Crumble remaining oat mixture evenly over top.
    6. Return to oven and bake until the top is golden brown and the caramel is bubbling, around 20 minutes.
    7. Remove from oven and let cool COMPLETELY before slicing. At least 4 hours at room temp (preferably overnight) or 2 hours in the fridge. If the bar is not cooled before slicing, the caramel will not be set, and you will end up with a crumbly melty mess. Trust me, the wait is worth it.
    8. Carefully peel away foil. Use a sharp knife to slice into 16 squares (4x4).

    Just made a Gluten-free version of these and they turned out amazing! I used GF miso paste, GF oats, and Bob’s Redmill All purpose flour. Lovely crunch, delightfully gooey but surprisingly not too sticky caramel with that lovely miso tang, and they are very cohesive (a common issue when converting to GF). This recipe is going to become a fixture in my repertoire!

    When I measured my whipping cream I was short by a lot- like 100g- and I subbed a mix of whole milk and sour cream (all I had)… it worked great! Maybe even added a little ‘tang’?

  • @zenithlight6132
    @zenithlight6132 Рік тому

    I tried the caramel (skipped the flour) to use in other recipes. The miso does add a really unique depth of flavor that regular salted caramel lacks. I did find it to be a bit forward in the recipe concentrations, and added a textural component (like fine sediment) to the final caramel. If I made this again, I think I would halve the miso amount, and add salt to make up for it.

    So I made this with Bob's Muesli instead of rolled oats . Muesli has raisins in it which I wasn't sure if Chocolate/Miso/Caramels/Rasin would be a tasty flavor so I picked them out and used them only on one half of the bars. We'll see how that tastes (haven't tried the bars yet). I just wanted to ask, what do you think about cutting the butter in like a pie crust or biscuits instead of melting and mixing. I followed your recipe as closely as possible and if these are delicious (I'm sure they will be.) I'll make them again... But I might try cutting in the butter instead of melt and mix. Thoughts, concerns with this?

    • @sheldoskitchen
      @sheldoskitchen  2 роки тому +2

      Honestly, I wouldn't mess around with thermometers in this case. Once the caramel starts turning brown, it gets hot so fast that before the thermometer the thermometer has time to register, the caramel will start burning. If it's browned, it's already way past 300F hard crack stage. So as long as it doesn't burn (too much), it'll work perfectly. I actually like letting my caramel smoke just a little bit cause I like the slight bitterness!

      You got this!!! The worst that can happen is that it burns but then it’s only sugar so not that much of a waste to start over.
      Keeping the lid on during the first 5 mins to wash down the sides helps it not to crystallize. Then, you just gotta cook it without stirring, swirling occasionally, until it turns golden.
      To get stuck caramel off a pan, add water and bring to a boil. Keep boiling until all the caramel has dissolved!
