The history of Worcestershire

A favorite condiment in the wtg house.

The Murky, Salty Mystery of Worcestershire Sauce

The peppery sauce may be wildly popular, but its ingredient list and origin story are shrouded in secrecy.

Sometimes it is best not to know.
Friends got Chinese whiskey in China. They were
told there is yak pee in it.

We found a very old bottle of Worcestershire in our spice cabinet. Probably 40 years old. There was just a little in there, but I tasted it and it seemed funky so I threw it out. On the other hand, maybe it’s SUPPOSED to taste funky.

Puts the ewww in umami.

Just bought a new bottle Worcestershire. Hoping for no yak pee. There’s a yak farm just up the road. Maybe I should ask.
