- HOISIN is a rich, dark, sweet barbecue sauce used in Chinese cooking for marinades and basting. The sauce is made from soybean flour, chiles, red beans, and many other spices. Vegetarian.
- Black Bean Garlic Sauce, from Lee Kum Kee, is a savory and ready-to-use sauce with aromatic black beans and garlic. Use in stir-frying and steam dishes. Replace the finely minced black beans with the paste and omit the garlic.
- TESTED 2002-02-13: We enjoyed the varied flavors, especially the hoisin and black bean sauce. Instead of using broth, we reserved the water from cooking asparagus to dilute the sauce. Original used wine; we used orange juice. Not mentioned above: we halved the recipe but served 8 spears apiece. Served with jasmine rice, sauteed raw in cool-press sesame oil with dry coconut, pureed ginger and slivered almonds. Hanneman
