No, making XO-sauce is not nearly as difficult as some might have you believe. It will certainly make your life better. This quickly has taken its place among my favorite, reliable, family-pleasing, homemade convenience foods. It's one of the most heavenly all-purpose ingredients that has ever made its way into my kitchen. I only recently learned of its existence, through a Hotline inquiry a few months ago about what people were making in anticipation of the holiday season. Food52’er Halfpint reported that she’d be making XO sauce; on further questioning, she provided a link to a great recipe (included below) for making XO sauce at home. Make this. Now. ;o)
