Whisky sauce is a sauce in Scottish cooking, which has become popular globally. It is created by mixing an amount of whisky and double cream with sauteed onion/ shallots. It is then set alight, in order to make sure that the sauce is not too bitter. The sauce is mainly used in the main course and also in some desserts. Eg. steaks, whisky chicken, bread puddings etc.
