Honey Sriracha Sauce Recipe
Description
Honey Sriracha Sauce Recipe blends honey, Sriracha sauce, reduced-sodium soy sauce, rice vinegar, and minced garlic in a saucepan. The ingredients are whisked together over medium heat and brought to a boil, then simmered gently for 10 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly. Cooling the sauce further thickens it to a glaze-like consistency.
The combination delivers a sweet heat balanced by umami and acidity. The garlic adds pungency that rounds out the flavor profile. This versatile sauce can serve as a dipping sauce or a glaze.
It pairs well with shrimp, vegetables like Brussels sprouts, meatballs, and wings. Adjusting the amount of Sriracha modifies the spiciness to taste. The sauce can also be combined with mayonnaise to make a spicy mayo.
