Sriracha Tahini Sauce Recipes

HOW TO MAKE HOMEMADE SRIRACHA SAUCE

Steps:

• Chop jalapeno and serrano peppers, retaining seeds and membranes, and place into a blender with garlic, brown sugar, salt, and water. Blend until smooth, pulsing several times to start.
• Transfer puree into a large glass container such as a large jar or pitcher. Cover container with plastic wrap and place into a cool dark location for 3 to 5 days, stirring once a day. The mixture will begin to bubble and ferment. Scrape down the sides during each stirring. Rewrap after every stirring and return to a cool, dark place until mixture is bubbly.
• Pour fermented mixture back into blender with vinegar; blend until smooth. Strain mixture through a fine mesh strainer into a saucepan, pushing as much of the pulp as possible through the strainer into the sauce. Discard remaining pulp, seeds, and skin left in strainer.
• Place saucepan on a burner and bring sauce to a boil, stirring often, until reduced to your desired thickness, 5 to 10 minutes. Skim foam if desired.
• Remove saucepan from heat and let sauce cool to room temperature. Sauce will thicken a little when cooled. Transfer sauce to jars or bottles and refrigerate.

ROASTED CAULIFLOWER WITH TAHINI AND SRIRACHA

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Place a rimmed baking sheet inside to preheat for 5 minutes.
• Toss cauliflower with oil, cumin, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Spread cauliflower carefully on the hot baking sheet. Set the bowl aside.
• Roast in the preheated oven until tender and starting to brown, about 15 minutes. Stir and continue roasting until evenly browned, about 5 minutes longer.
• Meanwhile, stir tahini and Sriracha sauce together in the bowl. Thin with a little water. Add hot cauliflower and stir gently to coat.
• Plate cauliflower and garnish with cilantro and sesame seeds.
