POWDERED WORCESTERSHIRE SAUCE?

[spec]

I got a question...

Anybody here use powdered wort? I go through nearly 100 gallons a year in my marinades, sauces, and everyday cooking...

I usually pick it up at Sams's  club, Cheaper than getting from my vendors...Between $11.oo to $13.oo per gallon at Sam's and $18.oo to $30.oo depending on the vendor

Here's my dilema..Sam's no longer carries the French's or Lea & Perron's in the gallon jugs

I haven't established an assortment of vendors since I got back...But the ones I talked to were in the $28.oo to $44.oo range per gallon for their House brands

That leaves me in quite a pickle...

Thought about making it from scratch...Like everything else ...But too time consuming and takes up too much frige space...I don't have a walk in cooler anymore

I was out looking online for a solution and found Powdered Wort... I han never even heard of it

So...

I'm wondering if anybody here has used it? What they think of it, It runs about the same $11.00 per gallon mixed as French's did in the gallon jugs...If I buy 16# or more per crack

Thanks for any input

Thanks Uncle Lar,

Their freight is half of what it would be if I ordered factory direct from French's...

I was just out at the Sam's club site...If I order 4 cases or more I can pick it  up at ...Not my local store but one about 25 miles away...for $6.08 + tax per gallon...Might have to do that...I hate to order a flat and have 16 gallons...$100.oo  worth of wort on hand...actually that sounded stupic...that's really not so bad

Thanks for the input...

Altho I may order up some of the powdered stuff...Just to satisfy my curiosity

Hey Spec, I picked up some Worcestershire Powder from The Great American Spice Co. It is not Lea & Perrins but if you are using it in a Rub or Sauce it is pretty darn close to French's!...JJ

 

[spec]

Thanks, JJ

The stuff I was looking was French's..

 

[ironhorse07]

I have a jar of powdered laying around that i bought for one recipe. The Great American Spice Co. Made pretty good sauce when I tried it. I forgot all about that stuff.

Try Penzey's for the best selection and freshest spices I have found.  It can be hard to get them by phone at times bet persistance is a worthwhile endeavor here.  Great Folks!

Interesting

So what does everyone use this stuff on?

 

[spec]

At this time I'm just investigating it's ability to replace the supply thatI'm used to...

Altho I think that it maybe a good alternative to liquid, as a spice on some foods, and in sauces when you want it's tang but not the wetness

Interesting Recipe Martin! Does this get cooked at all or strained at the end?...JJ

 

[diggingdogfarm]

I should have added the directions, LOL, yeah, it's cooked before aging.
After aging it's pureed real well with a 'boat motor' blender and then strained, but not too fine of a strainer.
Aged in the fridge, it'll be somewhat bitter if not aged long enough.

Hi!  My mother's favorite beef stroganoff recipe (and it is a winner!) calls for powdered Worcestershire and although it's now hard to find, I assure you, it's worth the trouble to find it!!!!!!
