Ingredients
Ingredients
- 3 Tbsp butter (salted or unsalted) + a pinch of salt
- ½ cup hot sauce (Frank's RedHot, Cholula, or Louisiana Hot Sauce)
- ½ Tbsp corn starch
- 1 Tbsp cold water
Instructions
- Melt butter and combine with hot sauce: In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the 3 tablespoons of butter until fully liquefied. Stir in the ½ cup of hot sauce until the mixture is well combined and smooth.
- Prepare corn starch slurry and thicken sauce: In a separate small bowl, mix ½ tablespoon of corn starch with 1 tablespoon of cold water until fully dissolved, forming a slurry. Slowly pour this slurry into the simmering butter and hot sauce mixture. Continue to simmer for 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly, until the sauce thickens to your desired consistency.
Notes
- You can adjust the thickness by adding more or less cornstarch slurry according to your preference.
- Use salted or unsalted butter depending on your taste; add a pinch of salt if using unsalted butter.
- This sauce is ideal for coating chicken wings, drizzling over sandwiches, or as a spicy dipping sauce.
- Keep the sauce warm to maintain thickness and flavor before serving.
