Method
 

  1. Making this sauce is straightforward, but each step is crucial in building flavors. Let’s break it down:
Step 1: Melting the Butter
  1. In a large saucepan, melt the four sticks of unsalted butter over medium heat. Keep an eye on it to ensure it doesn’t burn.
Step 2: Adding Aromatics
  1. Once the butter is melted, add the diced onion and minced garlic. Sauté until they’re soft and fragrant. This typically takes about 5 minutes.
Step 3: Incorporating Chicken Broth
  1. Pour in the chicken broth, stirring constantly. This deglazes the pan, picking up all the flavorful bits stuck to the bottom.
Step 4: Mix in Worcestershire Sauce and Brown Sugar
  1. Add the Worcestershire sauce and brown sugar. Stir to combine, ensuring the sugar dissolves completely.
Step 5: Seasoning the Sauce
  1. Add all the seasoning mix ingredients. Stir well, ensuring they’re evenly distributed throughout the sauce.
Step 6: Optional Ingredients
  1. If you’re opting for a zingier, spicier sauce, now’s the time to add the optional ingredients like minced ginger, freshly squeezed lemon juice, crushed red pepper flakes, tabasco hot sauce, or vinegar. Trust me, these can elevate the sauce to another level.
Step 7: Simmering
  1. Let the sauce simmer on low heat for at least 15-20 minutes. This allows the flavors to meld together beautifully. Stir occasionally to avoid sticking and burning.
Step 8: Taste and Adjust
  1. Before serving, taste the sauce and adjust the seasoning or salt if necessary.
  2. And there you have it, a pot of Bloves Smackalicious Sauce ready to transform any meal into a gourmet experience.
