Umami Gravy Caramel is a savoury winter sauce where dark caramel meets mushroom stock, butter, and carefully timed seasoning. Instead of sweetness, the focus is on depth: controlled bitterness, salt, fat, and acidity working in harmony. The result is a glossy, spoon-coating caramel that enriches gravies, roasted vegetables, mashed roots, and slow-cooked winter meals.
