Hickory Syrup Barbecue Sauce
Ingredients:
- 3/4 cup hickory syrup
- 1 cup ketchup
- 2 teaspoons grated lemon rind, optional
- 1 cup onion, finely chopped
- 1/4 cup brown sugar, firmly packed
- 1/4 cup lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 1/4 cup water
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons garlic, finely chopped or crushed
- 1/2 teaspoon coriander, optional
Combine all ingredients in medium saucepan. Bring to a boil and simmer for 15-20 minutes. Yields about 4 cups. Incredible on ribs, chicken or chops!
Honey Vinaigrette
Ingredients:
- 1 1/2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 1 1/2 teaspoons sherry vinegar
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 4 1/2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt, or more to taste
- 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground pepper, or more to taste
Combine lemon juice, vinegar, and honey in a small bowl. Whisk in olive oil, salt, and pepper. I love this on a salad that includes radishes and red onions. The sweetness of the honey offsets the earthy flavor of the radishes and the bite of the red onions.
Maple or Hickory Syrup Glazed Bacon
Ingredients:
- 8 slices bacon
- 2 tablespoons syrup (hickory or maple)
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. On a parchment or foil-lined rimmed baking sheet, arrange bacon in a single layer. Bake until fat is rendered and bacon is beginning to brown, 15-18 minutes. Remove from oven and brush with syrup. Bake until browned and sticky, 3-5 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack on a baking sheet and let drain. Serve warm. Fabulous with pancakes or waffles topped with the same syrup! For a really different BLT, use this bacon and mix a little syrup into your mayo!
Maple Sour Cream Icing
Ingredients:
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1 cup maple syrup (or substitute hickory syrup)
Mix sour cream and maple syrup in a saucepan. Bring to a simmer. Cook until mixture coats a spoon. Could this be any easier! Drizzle it on scones, sweet rolls or coffee cake!
The following additional recipes make use of the excellent local produce available at the Market. Put turnips, parsnips, apples, pears, corn, green beans and ginger on your shopping list, along with maple syrup, hickory syrup, and honey, and savor the tastes of fall!
