I haven’t found a good Buffalo Wing Sauce in the stores but this recipe makes an excellent sauce. We use it all the time with the Buffalo – Cilantro Chicken Sandwich recipe.
Ingredients:
- 1 cup Frank’s cayenne pepper sauce
- 1/3 cup vegetable oil
- 1 tsp sugar
- 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp Worcestershire sauce
- 1/8 tsp ground black pepper
- 1 egg yolk
- 2 tsp water
- 2 tsp cornstarch
Directions:
- Combine all ingredients except the egg yolk, water and cornstarch in a small saucepan.
- Heat sauce over medium heat until boiling, then reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes.
- Remove from pan and allow it to cool, uncovered, for 10 minutes.
- While sauce cools, vigorously whisk egg yolk with the 2 tsp of water in a medium bowl for about 2 minutes or color is pale yellow.
- Whisk in cornstarch until dissolved.
- Drizzle sauce mixture into egg yolk mixture in a steady stream while whisking rapidly. This will create a thick, creamy emulsion that will prevent the oil from separating.
- Cover sauce and chill until needed.
