The foundation of adobo, the Philippines' best-known dish, this sauce is made by simmering vinegar, soy sauce, bay leaf and black peppercorns until thickened. It can be frozen in a jar or bag, ready to thaw when needed.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Boil the vinegar

5 min

Boil the vinegar in a wide saucepan, uncovered, over medium heat for 5 minutes to soften its sharp smell.

2

Add the other ingredients

3 min

Add the soy sauce, bay leaf, black peppercorns, garlic, brown sugar and water to the pan and stir.

3

Thicken

30 min

Simmer over low heat for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened.

4

Cool and freeze

10 min

Cool the sauce at room temperature and remove the bay leaf. Transfer to a jar or freezer bag and store in the freezer.

Reminder

Boil the vinegar uncovered for the first 5 minutes, or its sharp smell will dominate the sauce. Allergens: contains soy (soy sauce). Additional allergen check: check the product label for gluten in the soy sauce. Ingredients may vary by product.

Sirkeyi önce ayrı kaynatma adımı gerçekten fark yaratıyor, keskinliği çok daha yumuşak kaldı. Ailem ekşiliği fazla bulmadı.

30 dakika kaynattım ama benim tencerem geniş olduğu için su daha çabuk buharlaştı, sosum tarifteki kadar akışkan kalmayıp biraz fazla koyulaştı. Bir dahaki sefere 20 dakikada kontrol edeceğim.

Dondurucuda bir ay bekletip tavuk için kullandım, tadı hiç bozulmamıştı. Kesinlikle çift porsiyon yapıp saklamaya değer.
