In case you’ve by no means come throughout white barbecue sauce then you’re in for a deal with. Once we take into consideration barbecue sauce most of us will take into consideration tomatoes, vinegar and sugar as being the primary substances and the flavors then being topped up depending on the type. Possibly soy if we’re searching for an Oriental taste, or Worcestershire and Tabasco for a little bit of Southern warmth however what if we wish to recreate the type of sauce utilized in Alabama soy sauce?

Alabama barbecue sauce is white, there’s not a tomato in sight and the white often today comes from mayonnaise. Within the outdated days it could have been overwhelmed egg whites which primarily is the way you make a mayo from scratch however right this moment it’s simpler and arguably safer to make use of a ready-made industrial mayonnaise with preservatives and stabilizers.

The white sauce can be utilized as a baste or mop while cooking or left simply so as to add on the finish like a dressing. I choose to make use of it as a dressing and to slap it on a burger however then once more I’ve by no means been an enormous fan of ketchup on burgers. Historically it’s a sauce that you just use to accompany hen or pork.

Whether or not you utilize it as a baste or simply pop a bowl on the desk, I do not assume that you may be disenchanted.

Two different issues to say earlier than we get to the substances. The primary is have a look at the substances rigorously and you will discover little or no fats or added sugar so should you make this with a low energy mayonnaise you then actually can slap it on with out feeling too responsible!

The second level to make is that there is not any cooking, all you are going to do is add the substances collectively and stir. It does nevertheless take time for all of the substances to mix collectively so it’s a sauce that must be made a day prematurely and saved coated within the fridge.

The substances are as follows:-

• 8 fl oz mayonnaise
• 2 fl oz white wine vinegar
• 2 fl oz lemon juice
• 2 tablespoons black pepper
• salt to style
• A superb pinch of cayenne pepper

This makes what I believe is a pleasant quantity of sauce however if you wish to make roughly, then simply work to the ratio 4 elements mayonnaise to at least one half vinegar and one half lemon juice and you will not go incorrect. After that it is about including the remaining substances to fit your style.
