Sweet Onion Sauce???

Options
Hi all,

I know this is a bit of a long shot but does anyone know how to make the sweet onion sauce they use at Subway? It's the only reason I ever go in there and I can't seem to find a way to recreate it at home... :confused:

If anyone has any ideas, I'd be very grateful!

Thanks,
Sarah xx

    I don't know about the corn syrup (is it the same as golden syrup?), but Costco sell buttermilk powder.

  • Corn syrup is an American liquid sweetener, like the UK sugar but in liquid form. similar consistency to golden syrup, but without the golden "flavour", just the sweetness.

    Buttermilk baking mix is a new one on me, but could be something like Bisquick which is an all-purpose baking mix, available in LARGE supermarkets, made by Betty Crocker.

    Looking at the recipe and the picture I would guess that the buttermilk baking mix is there to thicken the mixture; as it's only a teaspoonfull why not try potato flour or cornflour? Make sure that it is lump-free and evenly distributed before you start heating.

    I clicked on the word buttermilk baking mix and it gave this explanation
    biscuit mix

    A multi-purpose mix made up of flour, sugar, salt, vegetable shortening and baking soda. Bisquick is a brand-name product produced by General Mills. It is said that Bisquick was invented when an executive from General Mills met a dining car chef who mixed lard with dry ingredients ahead of time for making biscuits. The main purpose of Bisquick was to do just that, make biscuits quickly, however now it is used to make pizza dough, pancakes, and snicker doodle cookies. Bisquick is sold under the name Betty Crocker a brand name of General Mills.

    Ingredient


    Season: available year-round

    Substitutions: 1 cup biscuit mix = 1 cup flour + 1 1/2 tsp baking powder + 1/2 tsp salt + 1 tbsp shortening

    I think shortening is lard??
