Yum! I also thought as a marinade it was great but as a dipping sauce the consistency was a little thin. I tasted before serving and mixed through about a teaspoon of flour and about a tablespoon of sour cream to help give it a bit more substance.

This sauce was good to marinate the seafood in. As a dipping sauce it was okay...
