Useful tips

  1. Balance the flavors: Taste the sauce as you mix and adjust the honey, lime juice, and salt levels to your liking. If the sauce is too tangy, add a bit more honey. If it’s too sweet, add an extra splash of lime juice.
  2. Chill before serving: Allow the sauce to chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving. This will help the flavors meld together and enhance the overall taste.
  3. Versatility of the sauce: This sauce isn’t just for stone crab claws! Try it with shrimp, grilled fish, or even as a zesty spread for sandwiches. It pairs well with a variety of dishes.
