One of my readers asked me if I could make the Sweet Onion Sauce that is sold on one of the sandwiches at Subway.
I have to tell you, I have never tasted it before so I did a Google search and found a copycat recipe at Food.com
I tweaked it up because it called for 1 cup of sugar. YIKES.
My version of Sweet Onion Sauce is so tasty that I don’t care if it tastes like Subway’s or not.
- ⅔ cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup water
- 6 tablespoons white vinegar
- 1½ tablespoons red wine vinegar
- 1 tablespoon arrowroot
- 1 tablespoon minced onion flakes
- 2½ teaspoons Honey Dijon mustard
- 2½ teaspoons mustard powder
- 1 teaspoon celery salt
- 1 teaspoon fresh onion, finely minced (I used a mircoplane)
- 1 teaspoon poppy seed
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon sweet smokey paprika
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- ⅛ teaspoon chili sesame oil (hot chili oil)
- I a medium-sized sauce pan, whisk all the ingredients listed above.
- Place on the stove set to medium-high heat. Whisk continuously until it comes to a boil.
- Reduce heat to a simmer for 5 minutes.
- Remove from heat.
- Let it cool then you can jar it and refrigerate.
I served this sweet onion sauce on top of my sirloin burger. It can be used on just about any sandwich that you usually calls for mustard and or mayo.
It does have a lot of ingredients, but took only minutes to make.
Oh an my new-found ingredient that I love is Arrowroot, which as I mentioned in a previous post is a great thickener.
I sure hope you enjoy your weekend and thanks for stopping by.
