Apricot Ginger Dipping Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients in a small saucepan.
• Heat to boiling, stirring frequently.
• Cool and store in refrigerator.
• I'm guessing at the number of servings, but it does make about 3/4 cup of sauce.

Steps:

• Combine ingredients in saucepan.
• Heat until jam melts.
• Brush onto barbecued sausages in the last 5-10min. of cooking.
• Or cut cooked sausages in pieces and dip in sauce as appetizer.

Steps:

• Place all apricot dipping sauce ingredients in a blender or food processor. Blend until smooth. Reserve.
• Pierce the soft eye of the coconut and drain the coconut water. Reserve.
• Crack coconut in 1/2 using the back of a cleaver.
• Separate the coconut meat from the shell. Use a pairing knife to remove the brown skin from the meat. Using the finest part of your grater, grate 2 cups of coconut .
• Pour coconut water in a measuring cup and if necessary top off with beer until you have 3/4 cup of liquid. Reserve. If you are using store-bought shredded coconut (and consequently do not have any coconut water) replace mixture with 3/4 cup of beer.
• In a large bowl, combine flour, coconut water/beer mixture, baking soda, salt, cayenne, and egg. Beat until it is smooth. Add a bit more flour or beer, if necessary, so that the batter has the consistency of thick pancake batter.
• Tightly wrap each shrimp like a pinwheel (with the tail end of the shrimp on the outside) and skewer 1 shrimp on the end of each skewer. Use a paper towel to pat the shrimp dry.
• Pour oil into a small, tall pot until it is 3 inches deep. Heat oil until it reaches 350 degrees F (see oil dissertation below).
• While oil is heating, dip each shrimp into the batter, then dredge into the coconut shreds so that the entire "lollypop" is covered in coconut shreds.
• When oil is ready, submerge 4 shrimp at a time into oil (with the skewers sticking out of the pot). Fry for approximately 1 minute, or until coconut is a golden brown, rotating the top of the skewer once or twice. Remove and place lollypops on paper towel to absorb excess oil.
• Skim any wayward coconut shreds from the oil. Adjust heat so that it is 350 degrees F again and continue with next batch. Serve with apricot dipping sauce. For a creative presentation, stick skewers into an upturned pineapple or melon 1/2 and/or serve the dip in a coconut 1/2 (the side without the hole!)

Steps:

• Pour enough oil into a tall heavy-bottomed pot so it comes about a third of the way up the sides. Heat the oil over medium heat until a deep-frying thermometer inserted in the oil registers 340 degrees F. Set a rack on a baking sheet, put it in the oven, and preheat to 200 degrees F.
• For the Sauce: Stir the preserves, soy sauce, ketchup, and ginger in a small microwave-safe bowl. Cover with plastic wrap and microwave on HIGH until the preserves melt, about 30 seconds. Stir in lemon juice and cool before serving.
• Whisk the flour, baking powder, and salt in a large mixing bowl. Pour in the cold seltzer and whisk until batter just comes together; it should be lumpy.
• Pat the chicken very dry. Cut the chicken lengthwise into 1 by 3-inch strips. Season the chicken with the salt and pepper. Working in small batches, dip the chicken strips into the batter to coat evenly. Fry the chicken, turning once, until richly golden and crisp, about 5 to 6 minutes. Transfer to a rack in oven to keep warm while frying the remaining chicken.

Steps:

• Put preserves in food processor; pulse till smooth. Transfer to small bowl. Add vinegar, worcestershire sauce, and orange zest; stir till well combined. Serve immediately or can cover and refrigerate up to 2 days.

Steps:

• Slice tofu into thirds lengthwise so you have 3 even slabs. Stack the slabs on top of each other and slice through them lengthwise to make 3 even columns, then slice across to make 5 even rows.
• Lay tofu evenly on a plate lined with a couple of sheets of paper towels. Layer more paper towel on top of the tofu and place another plate on top of the stack. Press out as much water as possible and let sit for at least 30 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Transfer pressed tofu to a mixing bowl and drizzle with sesame oil. Lightly toss to combine. Sprinkle with cornstarch and ground chipotle chile pepper. Toss tofu until it is evenly coated with cornstarch and arrange in one layer on the prepared baking sheet.
• Bake tofu in the preheated oven for 10 minutes. Flip and continue baking until tofu is crisp, about 10 minutes more. Transfer tofu to a wire rack using a spatula; cool.
• While tofu bakes, combine apricot preserves, vegetable broth, ginger paste, garlic, and red pepper in a small saucepan over low heat. Heat and stir sauce until warmed and well combined, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat. Serve tofu with warm dipping sauce.

Steps:

• Melt jam in a small saucepan. Stir in remaining ingredients with salt and pepper to taste and serve warm.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F Coat a baking sheet with non-stick cooking spray.
• Whisk together jam and vinegar; set aside. In a blender or food processor, combine walnuts, bread crumbs and cilantro. Process a few turns until blended but still a coarse texture.
• Brush salmon pieces with the jam mixture. Coat evenly with the walnut bread crumb mixture. Place on prepared sheet and bake for 12 minutes. Serve with Apricot Ginger Dipping Sauce.
• DIRECTIONS FOR SAUCE: In a small bowl, whisk together all ingredients. Serve with crispy salmon bites.

Steps:

• Purée all ingredients in a blender until smooth.
