Gluten and Soy Free alternative to A1 Sauce

Sunday, January 16, 2011

Sunday is more like a Day of Prep in this house :-/. However, I remind myself that getting stuff ready on a relaxed Sunday is better than than doing them when I really need them in the middle of the week. When I'm invariably starving, sleepy and cranky. So since once of this weeks recipe's calls for A1 sauce and I can't find out without soy sauce in it I hit up google for the following recipe, which I've adapted based on what I have in my fridge and to exclude soy. Clue: I'm out of O.J.

This recipe looks really far off the linked recipe, but this is because I'm creating a soy-less alternative to soy sauce at the same time. 

"Almost A1 Sauce" Ingredients:
  • 3 tablespoons cranberry suace
  • 1/2 cup raisens. Rinsed very well 3 times. 
  • 2 tablespoon dijon mustard
  • 2 tablespoons heinze ketchup
  • 1/4 cup white vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon tamarind paste (this gives it that slightly sour taste)
Soy alternative Sauce:
  • 3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
  • 2 teaspoons molasses
  • 1 cube beef stock (shitake stock would also work well
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 clove crushed garlic
  • 5 drops ume plum seasoning
  • 100ml hot water
Method:
Add  all ingredients above into a sauce pan and simmer gently for 5 minutes. When time is up allow to cool, then blend, then pour into jars. Of course if you have a thermomix, you can heat and blend it up while it's still hot.
