Notes

*We used Frank’s RedHot Sauce (Original)
  • Do not overheat the butter while it’s melting or the sauce won’t come together correctly and won’t be as creamy. Keep the sauce at a low heat while you stir and have patience.
  • If you’re having trouble getting the vegan butter to emulsify on the stove (or if you just want the sauce to be extra creamy), you can blend the prepared buffalo sauce for at least 60 seconds at a high speed in a blender or food processor, or using an immersion blender.
  • The sauce will solidify in the fridge as the butter hardens. You'll need to heat the refrigerated sauce slightly, but don’t heat it too much or too fast or the emulsification may break. If your kitchen is particularly warm, you can also let it sit out at room temperature for a couple hours until ready to use it.
