Ingredients
- 140 gram Whiskey
- 32 gram Balsamic Vinegar
- 4 pcs. Thyme Fresh and with stalk
- 2 pcs. Rosemary Fresh and with stalk
- 4 gram Sugar
- 18 gram Barbecue marinade BBQ Sauce. It can also be store-bought
- 50 gram Ketchup
- 55 gram Tomato Puree
- 300 gram Whipping Cream
- Spices Salt, pepper, and lemon juice
Instructions
Start by scalding your thyme and rosemary sprigs (We usually place them in a sieve and pour boiling water directly onto them from our boiling water tap). Divide them into the stalks and the leaves respectively.
Whiskey essence
- Bring 5 tablespoons of whiskey and 1 tablespoon of balsamic vinegar to a boil along with the herb stalks. Use a small pot for this.
- Let it simmer for about 5 minutes until half of it has evaporated. Then you have your essence. Pour it into a small bowl and let it cool slightly before use.
- Wipe the pot so it can be used again.
- Bring 5 tablespoons of whiskey and 1 tablespoon of balsamic vinegar to a high heat and set it on fire. Let it burn out, it typically takes only 10-15 seconds. Add ketchup, BBQ sauce, and tomato puree to the very hot pan and let it "burn/scorch" for 30-45 seconds.
- Reduce to low heat and add the whiskey essence.
- Then add the sugar and the chopped rosemary and thyme leaves.
- Let it simmer for 5 minutes and add the cream.
- Let it simmer for another 10 minutes and season with salt, pepper, and lemon juice.
