Notes
- If your butter separates from the hot sauce, then it means it hasn't been mixed well enough. Try mixing your buffalo sauce with a whisk instead of a spoon.
- To thicken buffalo sauce, create a cornstarch slurry (equal parts cornstarch and water), bring the buffalo sauce to a simmer, then mix in the slurry.
- Store the leftovers in an airtight container or jar in the refrigerator for up to one week.
- Use this buffalo sauce for all of your favorite buffalo needs and desires.
