A Review: Worcestershire Sauce



I was once told by a timid cook that she was afraid of Worcestershire sauce. There's nothing to be afraid of here! (Except perhaps spelling it correctly.) This dark lovely condiment is a fermented combination of a dozen or so ingredients which may include vinegar, molasses, high fructose corn syrup, anchovies, water, onions, salt, garlic, custard, tamarind concentrate, cloves, and natural flavorings.

Worcestershire sauce is greatly versatile and can be used in both cooked and uncooked food. It can serve as a part of a marinade or as a steak sauce. It can be integrated into meatloaf and burgers or added to Chex mix to give it that extra special enhancement.

Sometimes I like to add it to things just to see what happens.

Yes, that picture above is of a whopping 18-ounce bottle of Worcestershire sauce. How long does it take for a family of two adults and two small children to get through 18 ounces of Worcestershire sauce? A LONG stinkin' time. But we did it! :oD
