STRAWBERRY, MINT & BASIL BOTANICAL HOT SAUCE

For this bright burst of hot summer in a sauce, I started off with plump, juicy strawberries because they’re tangy-sweet, and flavorful. Who doesn’t love them? I chose mint for its grassy-fresh lift and to offset the berry sweetness. And then there’s the garden-fresh basil! It adds a flavor balance between sweet and savory with hints of anise, black pepper and yes! mint (basil is actually in the mint family). I think that’s pretty sweet.

PERFECT AS A SPICY SAUCE FOR CHICKEN, RIBS AND WINGS, A TOPPING ON CHOCOLATE AND DESSERTS OR A SYRUP FOR PANCAKES.
