Vegan Worcestershire Sauce

Vegan Worcestershire Sauce ~

Use this savory, fish-free sauce in any recipe calling for Worcestershire!

I use Worcestershire sauce fairly often. It adds zesty flavor to all sorts of dishes including, Burgers, Irish Stew, Cowboy Casserole, and Brown Gravy.

Vegan Worcestershire Sauce Recipe

Frequently, I can find my favorite brand of vegan Worcestershire at the grocery store but they’ve been out lately so I’ve started making my own and have found that it’s actually quite easy. All you do is boil some basic pantry seasonings and ingredients then drain and store in the fridge and you’ve got homemade Worcestershire sauce ready to go any time you need it!

As you may already know, traditional Worcestershire is made with anchovies. Since we don’t do fish around here, the way we make homemade Worcestershire sauce vegan is simply by omitting the ingredient. In its place, tamari provides the umami flavor you expect from Worcestershire sauce.

Ingredients for Vegan Worcestershire Sauce

You will need:

• 1 cup malt vinegar
• 1/4 cup tamari
• 2 tablespoons light brown sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
• 1/2 teaspoon mustard powder
• 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
• 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1/8 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper

How to Make Vegan Worcestershire Sauce

STEP ONE: In a small saucepan over medium-high heat, whisk together all the ingredients. Bring just to a boil then reduce the heat to low. Simmer for 20 minutes, or until the mixture is reduced by half.

STEP TWO: Pour the liquid through a fine mesh strainer and into a glass bottle or storage container. Discard spices left behind in the strainer. Allow the sauce to cool to room temperature before using.

Storage

• Store tightly covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 months.
