Notes

TIPS
  • Wait till the end to add salt. Add salt after tasting, only if it is required. You may find that the seasonings are salty enough.
  • Make sure to use unsalted butter so you don't over salt your sauce.
  • Taste this flavor-packed sauce as you make it to customize the recipe .
  • Add an extra teaspoon of cayenne pepper to make the recipe spicier.
  • Stir the sauce often while making it to prevent it from sticking at the bottom of the pan.
  • For a healthier salt, use low-sodium chicken broth.
  • The ingredients in the sauce may separate once it cools down. Just give it a good stir before using it.
  • This bloves sauce is quite spicy before adding the optional ingredients, so I recommend that you taste it before you add more spicy ingredients.
