I am really not happy with the store bought sauce and I cant find a happy medium with my own. Either it is to bitter or to spicy. I will have to give yours a try.
Hi,
Yes, there is a thin line here. I always a bit of sugar of honey (not much at all) to counter act bitterness. Oli’s recipes, however, never disappoint me.
