Sour Lemon Sauce Recipes

ROASTED ASPARAGUS WITH CREAMY LEMON DRESSING

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400°F. Trim the bottom 2-inches from the asparagus, and if desired, peel the lower 2 inches of the stalks. Place the asparagus in a baking pan. Don't worry if the stalks overlap a bit. Drizzle the tablespoon of olive oil over them and toss gently to coat the asparagus evenly. Sprinkle on the salt and pepper, toss again, and spread out in the pan.
• Roast the asparagus for 10 to 14 minutes, until just tender and slightly browned. Remember that they will continue to cook a bit after you remove them from the oven, so take them out while they're still a little firmer than you would like.
• Meanwhile, in a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, zest, crème fraiche, and Sriracha until smooth. Slowly pour in the ⅓ cup olive oil, whisking all the while until the dressing is thick, then season with salt and pepper.
• Let the asparagus cool slightly, and while still warm drizzle over some of the lemon sauce. Serve right away with the rest of the sauce passed on the side if desired.

CHINESE SWEET AND SOUR SAUCE

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• Mix the potato starch with 1 tablespoon of water (or a little more, as needed) to make a slurry.
• Add all of the ingredients to a saucepan and mix evenly before you start cooking.
• You must continuously stir the sauce to prevent the sauce from getting lumpy.
• Bring the sauce to a boil and turn the heat to the lowest temperature and simmer until the sauce texture has turned thick and sticky. Then it's ready.
• You can stir fry some pork or chicken with vegetables and pour the sauce in.
• If you have any extra sauce, you can keep it in a dry and clean container after it is cooled down and store it in the fridge. Usually, this sauce should last 7 to 10 days in the fridge.

VEGAN LEMON SAUCE (5 INGREDIENTS)

Steps:

• Add all of the ingredients to a high-powered blender, like a Vitamix, and blend until completely smooth. If you don't own a powerful blender, you should soak the cashews for several hours or boil them first. Drain them and then proceed.
• After blending, scrape down the sides and blend again. You want it 100% smooth like a heavy cream. It should be super creamy and beautifully tart.
• You can use immediately or chill in the fridge a few hours first. It will thicken up a lot more in the fridge similar to a sour cream texture. The sauce will last about 4 days in the fridge.
