Hoisin Sauce
By Kim Campbell
Hoisin is an Asian barbecue sauce that is used to flavor and season many Asian dishes. I like to make my own since it’s cheaper and the ingredients are simple to find. This condiment is very salty and sweet, so a little can really go far; most recipes call for only a small amount of hoisin sauce to enhance the dish.
