Notes
- Storage: let it fully cool and place in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 weeks.
- Freezing: once cooled, you can place it in a freezer safe container (make sure there is space in the top for the sauce to expand a bit) and store in the freezer for up to 3 months.
- Sweetness: if you think it needs a touch of sweetness feel free to add in a bit of coconut sugar (or granulated sugar) – start with just a 1/4 or 1/2 teaspoon and go from there.
