How to Make Apricot Dip Sauce

  1. Add 1 cup apricot preserves to a food processor.
  2. Pulse until completely smooth. Scrape down the sides as needed.
  3. Transfer the smooth apricot mixture to a small bowl.
  4. Add 2 tablespoons of white wine vinegar, 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce, and 1 teaspoon orange zest.
  5. Stir until all ingredients are thoroughly combined and the sauce is evenly textured.
  6. Taste and adjust seasoning as desired (add a dash of hot sauce for extra spice!). Serve immediately for the best flavor, or cover and refrigerate for up to 2 days.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
