Guava BBQ Sauce + Portuguese Pickled Onions

For the next eight months we are hosting a new online cooking demo series as part of the virtual Be Well Utah event series. This year we have partnered with . PEAU is the arts and culture division of PIK2AR (Pacific Islander Knowledge 2 Action Resources).

Cooking with PEAU is as a collaborative effort with Be Well Utah and 麻豆学生精品版 to accomplish two goals:

  1. to teach people how to cook "traditional" Pacific Island dishes.
  2. to provide healthier options for some of the ingredients in recipes frequently used by Pacific Islanders.

Participate in our online cooking demos and learn how cook traditional Pacific Island dishes. Not only will you learn how to cook some of these recipes, but you will also learn healthier options for some of the ingredients in these recipes. Each month we will provide a recipe for both a traditional main dish along with a side dish or dessert.

Today we're taking you step-by-step through how to make some delicious variations of a traditional Guava BBQ Sauce. You may substitute the Guava for a variety of different flavors such as Tamarind, Hoisin, Blood Oranges, Dragon Fruit, Starfruit, Kim Chee paste, just to name a few. This BBQ Sauce can be applied to any protein of your choice.

To compliment this sauce, we are partnering it with a traditional Portuguese side dish, Pickled Onions. Pair them together or enjoy the Pickled Onions by themselves, either way, you have a delicious treat.
