| Method: | |
| 1. | Heat a 2-quart saucepan over a medium-high burner. When the pan is hot, add the peanut oil. Add the shallot and garlic, chili paste, coriander, anise seed and Sweet Ginger purée. Sauté for 1 minute, stirring constantly. |
| 2. | Add the remaining ingredients and bring the pot to a simmer. Reduce the heat and cook at a bare simmer for 10 minutes, or until slightly thickened. Adjust the seasoning with salt or additional soy and honey. |
| 3. | Cool the sauce to room temperature, then refrigerate in a tightly covered container until use. |
