I am NOT a fan of sweet sauces. But this one looked to have a good mix of sweet and hot.
However, when I saw all the ingredients in this sauce, I wanted to make it less sugary and less un-diet friendly. So I made a few adjustments!
This is the recipe I used ( my redo) and the original recipe as well.
Original:
3/4 cup of water
1/3 cup of sugar
1/4 cup corn syrup
3 tablespoons pectin
1 teaspoon vinegar
50 drops of red food coloring
1/8 tsp onion powder
dash cayenne pepper
dash garlic powder
dash paprika
1/4 cup minced red bell pepper
1/2 teaspoon minced canned jalapeno peppers
My Redo:
3/4 cup water
1/4 cup sugar ( which i can omit next time the honey i use gives it ENOUGH sweetness)
1/4 cup HONEY
2 teaspoons vinegar
1 tablespoon of dried onion ( i used Thrive shelf stable ones)
1/2 teaspoon garlic
1/4 cup minced red and green bell pepper ( i used dried ones from Thrive as well)
I do not like jalapeno's so I omitted them. I also omitted the paprika and the cayenne. I dont want it THAT spicy for me. But you might.
Basically you add everything but the last 2 things, whisk, put on med/high heat and then add the last two and bring to a boil. Turn down, simmer 5-7 min till thick and then cool for 10 min and store. Makes a cup! Tastes amazing. Very Asian inspired. Im going to use this on some chicken tomorrow night!
Came out amazing!
enjoy!!!!
