Worcestershire Sauce: Does The Brand Matter To You??? - Page 6

bbqgeekess · 02-13-2014, 01:24 AM

Here it is in the 1 quart mason jar, filled to the brim. It was really thick, spicy and salty, so I added enough water to fill the 1 quart jar all the way up to the brim. It tastes just about right when I added this water--tasting good! Going in the fridge for 3 weeks then straining it. We'll see..

This stuff tastes pretty strong / concentrated! I might have to thin it down with vinegar and/or water after the 3 weeks in the fridge to compare it to L&P & the yucky Heinz.

Oh by the way I added a star anise :)

Also the recipe calls for 1/4 cup concentrated tamarind.. I don't know what that means because I buy it by block of wet paste. I put 1/4 of the 16 oz block in the sauce. The rest of the 3/4 of the block I used for 3 quarts of the most flavorful tangy fruit juice one could ever drink :)

L&P all the way.

I bought the "other kind" one time, for my red beers. BIG MISTAKE, never again.

charrederhead · 02-13-2014, 06:34 AM

Over the years I have strayed twice from L&P....never again.

We're kinda food snobs, but we use store brand. One of our local stores carries "Chef Karlin" brand stuff. It's kinda a running joke in our house, but it really isn't too bad.

We only use it for meatloaf and a shot or so in our ground beef mix for burgers. So it's well covered by other stuff anyway

DOponds · 02-13-2014, 08:39 AM

L&P over here, but now thinking about doing my own taste test.

stephan · 02-13-2014, 08:55 AM

I have always used L&P. Something to be said if everyone uses L&P as the bench mark for comparison.
How Its Made.

(I didn't read all 6 pages but just chiming in here)

I bought two bottles of French on sale and only used them on Butts ( I used it in the injection). We agreed that it imparted a bitterness to the butts that was never there with Lea & Perrins. I actually threw out the second bottle and went back to L&P.

And now I dont even use worshy on butts anymore!

BTW, L&P used to make a thick Burger Booster sauce. I loved that in the burger mix. But I dont see it anymore. Bummer

They had a "Thick and Hearty" in the not too distant past. I remember seeing it at Kroger as a "Last Chance" item on sale. I bought out the remaining stock which was four bottles. All gone now I fear.

I have a jar of black jack in the fridge in the same jar.. now a photo of that'd freaky wouldn't it? lol. (well it used to be black jack, now mixed with 1/2 head country--btw it's almost orgasmic how good the two taste together! have you tried it yet?!)

Bludawg · 02-13-2014, 11:05 AM

No but I'm over due for a foodgasm

Concentrated tamarind, is just been boiled down and filtered then jarred. I carry the Neeras brand at work. Its smooth and has the consistency of wheel bearing grease. Excellent for making Pad Thai, it dissolves completely in warm water.

food4thot · 08-09-2014, 02:43 PM

No mention of Wizard's? Makes L&P and Heinz taste like battery acid. So good I sometimes take a swig from the bottle

Particularly excellent on grilled salmon

JDM46 · 08-09-2014, 03:56 PM

Lea & Perrin's. Give it a good shake.

Sergeant Smoke · 08-09-2014, 04:08 PM

You're all going to think I'm crazy, but I subbed Equate brand for L and P one time and it was phenomenal!!! I wouldn't believe it either had I not done it. Just trust me on this one. Solo..... no,but in a recipe....WINNER!!!
