Oxtail Honey Sauce

Introduction & Inspiration

Oxtail cooking juices pair so well with sweet ingredients like honey. When reduced down into this syrupy sauce it adds a subtle depth of flavour. It seems to complement the oxtails’ natural beefy flavour and reminds me a little of treacle toffee.

The sauce is also great, even without the addition of a small amount of honey, so give this a try and see for yourself.

170ml Oxtail Cooking Juices

1 tsp Honey

Recipe Instructions

Add the oxtail cooking juices, a pinch of salt and the honey to a pan on medium-high heat.

Allow the mixture to bubble, stirring often with a spatula until the liquid remaining in the pan is approx. one third of the original amount.

Taste the mixture during the cooking process to arrive at a sauce with a good depth of flavour and which is thick enough for what you have in mind to use it for.

Pour the sauce into a small container or serving jug and you're ready to go!

Tips

This oxtail honey sauce, will solidify when left in the fridge, and so it will simply need to be warmed up again when you're ready to use it.

Ideally, purchase your meat and fat from pasture raised animals that are Nitrate, Nitrite & Additive Free and use white sea salt or rock salt that contains no anticaking agents or other additives.
