Sauces are part of the #FoodieFriday journey today. Sauces make me weak in the knees. I confess there are times I order or make something because of the sauce, not because of the food the sauce is on top of or mixed in to. Like Eggs Benedict - sometimes I dream about the Hollandaise.
Sauces take some patience but they are worth it. Oh so worth it.
Here's a few sauces that make my mouth water immediately once I think of them, smell them, or hear them mentioned:
Tzatziki
Chimichurri
Peanut
Hollandaise
Vodka
Any sweet fruit sauce
Oh man, there are more but the drool is running out of my closed mouth so I'm just gonna end the list there.
Listen, sauces rock. They can elevate any dish - meat, vegetables, desserts. YUM.
One last sauce story - when my youngest was in elementary she was asked to create a recipe. When she brought home her idea I looked at it and said, "I can do that." She was over the moon, Mommy could make her recipe creation! It was grilled meatloaf with mac-n-cheese sauce. So I made a meatloaf and we grilled it (delicious btw) and I made my homemade mac-n-cheese sauce (noodle free) and we poured it over top. It was SO good! So good. In fact, maybe I'm making that for dinner tonight - my youngest would be thrilled that I made it again - plus that mac-n-cheese sauce is DIVINE.
