It can be incorporated into glazes for roasted meats or used to emulsify sauces, adding depth and complexity. For a simple yet flavorful dip, mix it with mayonnaise or yogurt. Its robust flavor stands up well to cooking, making it suitable for braises and pan sauces.
How it differs from similar foods
