Why dry? Whether you are creating a spice rub, or adding to a fry powder, or you want Worcestershire’s big flavor more intensely, without having to cook off a lot of liquid, the dry powder is a must!
It is a multitude of palate experiences all in one: it’s flavored with tamarind, cloves, malt vinegar, onion, molasses, and other ingredients. The original recipe is still kept a top secret in the factory, with the exact ingredients and ratios unchanged.
Iconically British, Worcestershire’s roots are Indian, which probably trace back to fish sauces popularized in other parts of Asia.
Worcestershire sauce was made in Worcester England, by a pair of pharmacists, John Wheeley Lea, and William Perrins. The sauce was actually their botched attempt to recreate a variation of an Indian fermented fish sauce, garum, as a digestive aid for sale in their pharmacy.
The original experiment was so completely inedible, though, that the remaining barrels were left on the shelf, and forgotten about. After time, however, the sauce fermented, and mellowed, in the barrel into what became Worcestershire’s delicious, bold flavor.
