Ingredients
- 1/2 cup honey
- 2 tbsp vinegar
- 0.33 cup water
- 4 chipotle chilies in adobo
- 2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
Instructions
- 1Gather all ingredients and have a small whisk or immersion blender ready for emulsifying.
- 2Finely chop the chipotle chilies in adobo sauce, reserving the adobo liquid.
- 3In a medium saucepan, combine honey, vinegar, water, the chopped chipotle chilies, adobo liquid, and Worcestershire sauce.
- 4Place the saucepan over medium‑low heat and stir continuously with a whisk to dissolve the honey completely.
- 5Once the mixture begins to simmer, increase the heat to medium and continue stirring for 3–4 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly and coats the back of a spoon.
- 6Reduce the heat to low and use an immersion blender (or transfer to a food processor) to blend the sauce for 30 seconds, creating a smooth, glossy emulsion.
- 7Taste the sauce and adjust seasoning if desired—add a pinch of salt or a splash more vinegar for extra tang.
- 8Remove the saucepan from the heat and let the sauce cool for 5 minutes; it will thicken further as it cools.
- 9Transfer the sauce to a clean jar, seal tightly, and refrigerate. It can be stored for up to 2 weeks.
- 10Before using, give the jar a good shake or stir to re‑emulsify if any separation occurs.
