This sauce is awesome on chicken and beef recipes that normally call for barbeque sauce. I might even try it on pork blades on the grill.

This is excellent and a lot less sugar than the store bought stuff. I think I may put bit of a kick to it next time since I like a bit of spice.

1.3.17 Will cut back a bit on the soy sauce in the future. The one thing that wasn t quite right about this was the consistency. Hoisin sauce s texture is much thicker. You need a spoon to get hoisin sauce out of a jar but you can pour this. I did add a bit more peanut butter in an effort to thicken it a bit and that helped a little. This will work in a pinch and was pretty good with a stir-fried beef and veggie dish for lunch.

I used this for a wonton soup recipe it was very good and used ingredients I had on hand. I ony had natural peanut butter so the sauce wasn't smooth but that was fine. For the Chinese hot sauce and black pepper I used Sambal Oleck instead. I would defintely use again when I need Hoisin sauce instead of buying. #AllrecipesAllstarsCanada #LunarNewYear

I didn't have any dark brown sugar or sesame oil so I used light brown sugar and peanut oil. I think it came out just fine.

Made as recipe shows but was too salty for us. Next time will use low sodium soy. Keeper.

I made this recipe as I needed it to make crock pot general Tso chicken. I like it a lot. I have never tasted it before or made it. Therefore I rated the recipe 4 stars as I don;t know if there are better recipes. I will make this again but will also try other recipes to see if there is a difference. I might add more fresh ginger another time. I added more peanut butter as i read one review that said she like the sauce thicker.
