- Prep 5 mins

Turn the bounty of garden and farm stand into a multi-purpose condiment.
You can baste with this sauce as well as serve it alongside grilled flank steak, shrimp, fish and vegetables. Toss some hearty bread on the grill and spread it on that too. Best yet, you can make it ahead and keep in the fridge for up to 3 weeks.
