What are some delicious recipes and creative uses for our sauces?

[esavvymom]

I love the taste of our sauces, but am a bit disappointed that we don't have any actual recipes for using them. I know what the bottles say, but for the non-creative cooks like me, I need specifics people! What I have done/tried so far:
Pineapple Rum - over cream cheese w/crackers *yum*; spread on a hamburger or a grilled chicken sandwich in place of mayo, etc.Maple Honey Mustard - used it in place of BBQ for some reheated steak.Ginger Wasabi - dip for Wonton recipe in the last Season's Best.I know you can brush it on meats when grilling- haven't done it yet (I forget).
I saw the other thread about the Peanut Sauce and that's what made me think of asking this....so if YOU have a RECIPE or easy idea for these sauces, please share! I'd love to have something to give to my customers.

I used the Pineapple Rum sauce for a chicken and rice dish I made. I basically just used it like a marinade/sauce for the chicken and then I stirred some into the rice too. My family loved it!

But don't worry, I have some ideas for you!For the Pineapple Rum sauce, try using it as a glaze for baked ham or pineapple chicken skewers. You can also mix it with cream cheese and shredded cheese for a tasty dip, or use it as a topping for grilled salmon.The Maple Honey Mustard is great as a marinade for pork chops or chicken, or as a dipping sauce for chicken tenders or pretzels. You can also mix it with shredded chicken for a delicious sandwich filling.As for the Ginger Wasabi sauce, try using it as a marinade for shrimp or as a dressing for an Asian-inspired salad. You can also mix it with cream cheese and spread it on crackers for a tasty appetizer.For grilling, you can definitely brush the sauces on meats for added flavor.

Hi there! I completely understand where you're coming from. As a fellow consultant and busy cook, I know how important it is to have specific recipes and ideas for using our sauces. Here are a few suggestions that I have tried and loved:1. Pineapple Rum sauce: In addition to using it as a dip or spread, try using it as a glaze for grilled shrimp or chicken skewers. Simply brush the sauce on the skewers before grilling for a delicious tropical twist.2. Maple Honey Mustard: This sauce is great for marinating chicken or pork before grilling. You can also mix it with a little bit of olive oil and use it as a salad dressing. It's perfect for a simple and flavorful meal.3. Ginger Wasabi: One of my favorite ways to use this sauce is as a marinade for salmon. Just mix it with a little bit of soy sauce and let the salmon marinate for an hour before grilling or baking. It's also great for stir-fry dishes and as a dipping sauce for sushi.I hope these ideas inspire you to get creative with our sauces. Don't be afraid to experiment and try them in different dishes. And if you come up with any new and delicious recipes, please share them with me and our customers. Happy cooking!
