This butterscotch sauce is like none you’ve had before — it’s sweet, but slightly
salty with a touch of umami essence — your ice cream is about to get real happy. Butterscotch sauce benefits from
salt, too. Like salted caramel, it keeps the sauce from
becoming saccharine sweet — it’s perfectly balanced.
