I like sauces. Of all kinds. Barbecue. Plum. Butter. Steak. The more sauce the better.
I also like making sauces -- because they're easy and because they can transform the usual stuff you have in the fridge into a taste explosion! Yes, the exclamation point was absolutely necessary there.
My latest sauce: Beekeeper's Jezebel Sauce from Southern Living. I'm not sure why they call it that, but I like it. The name's got zip.
As does the sauce. I used it on biscuits, then on roast chicken, then on egg rolls. It was good everywhere.
And I think you'll agree.
Beekeeper's Jezebel Sauce
- 1 15-oz. jar apricot preserves (no big fan of apricot, I used peach)
- 1/4 cup chicken broth
- 1/4 cup honey
- 3 T. horseradish
- 1 T. fresh chopped parsley
- 2 T. Dijon mustard (I used a regular old spicy brown -- sorry French mustard lovers)
- 1 tsp. fresh chopped thyme
- 1/4 t. dried crushed red pepper
Easy! And yummy! (More necessary exclamation points.)
The food: Beekeeper's Jezebel Sauce
The verdict: Worth exclaiming over

Hey Abbie,
Thanks for stopping by!
I kept coming across recipes that called for whole wheat pastry flour, but could never find it in the super market. I finally ended up finding it through a friend who goes to a Bulk Food Store run by the Amish. Once I started using it, I was hooked! Any recipe that calls for whole wheat flour I just make half of the amount of flour called for the whole wheat pastry flour. It takes away that "heaviness" that some breads made with only whole wheat have a tendency to leave behind in the intestines. This way you still get the fiber, just a much better texture.
I loooooove Jezebel sauce! It's been a recipe my mom has made forever. Instead of the apricot preserves she uses a mixture of apple and pineapple preserves. Soooo yummy served over a block of cream cheese with crackers!
Jezebel with cream cheese and crackers -- yum. Great idea.
this sauce looks delish and i love that it's so versatile. thanks for stopping by YoT
