GAPS Diet. Day 43.
I have been wanting to make fermented barbecue sauce for some time now. The GAPS Diet is the best excuse to give it a go. Too bad Mike and I have no will power. None. Nilch.
Better luck next time.
Slather your next slow cooked short ribs in this stuff and you will think you've died and gone to heaven. This is what real barbecue sauce should taste like.
barbecue sauce
makes 1 pint
12 oz high quality reduced tomato sauce or homemade sugo*
3 tbsp roasted and pureed garlic paste
2-3 tbsp raw honey
2 tsp ground mustard
1/3 cup raw apple cider vinegar
1tsp paprika or cayenne pepper
1 tsp celtic mineral sea salt
Mix all ingredients in a pan over medium heat. Allow to lightly simmer for 5-10 minutes. Eat. Or ferment if you have the will power.
*I purchased some really high quality tomato sauce from Metro Deli here in Santa Barbara. You could also make your own sugo by cooking tomatoes long and slow until they are reduced to a thickened sauce, somewhere between ketchup and tomato paste.
i've been searching and searching and searching for a decent store-bought BBQ sauce and have come up with nadda. It's time to make my own. Thanks for the push!
ReplyDeleteLet me know what you think... the great thing about homemade sauce is you can add a little bit of this and a little bit of that until you have it just right to your liking.
