We at SBcanning, prefer to make our own sauces when possible as often, these can be made ahead of time, and you can keep them in the freezer or refrigerator. Herbs & spices, preferably grown and prepared at home is the best. I think making these recipes of sauces and mixes gives us a great satisfaction just in knowing we made these!
