Amaretto Almond Sauce Recipes

AMARETTO ALMOND LIQUEUR (HOMEMADE)

Steps:

• In a small sauce pan over medium heat bring 1 cup of sugar and 1/2 cup water to boil.
• Let boil for 2 minutes to make a syrup.
• Set aside to cool slightly.
• When cooled mix 3 cups vodka, almond extract and 1 cup of the syrup mixture.
• It's ready to bottle.

AMARETTO ALMOND CREAM SAUCE

Steps:

• In a non-stick skillet, melt the butter and brown the almonds until golden brown; be very careful as they will burn quickly.
• As soon as the almonds are nicely browned, add the Amaretto; be extremely careful as it should and will flame up for about 10 seconds or so.
• After about 30 to 40 seconds you will have very little liquid in the pan (it will be dark brown).
• Add the cream, tomato paste, and the crushed bouillon cube and bring to a boil.
• Reduce heat to a rolling simmer and reduce by half (about 12 minutes) stirring often.
• The finished sauce should have a beige, ever so slight pink color and coat the back of a spoon.
• NOTE: If the Amaretto doesn't flare up in the pan, don't worry! Your sauce will be fine.
