    Easy Homemade Hoisin Sauce

    Make this easy homemade hoisin sauce with ingredients present at home in just 5 minutes. This makes a great substitute for original hoisin sauce in any recipe and is laden with less salt.

    Hoisin sauce is a dark-colored sauce usually used in Chinese cooking to glaze meat. It is made of soybean paste, garlic, chili, and has a sweet and sour taste. This sauce has a thick texture.

    Hoisin sauce is easily available in most large supermarkets or Chinese stores. If you can’t find it, try this recipe which is not original but gives a similar taste and makes a good substitute.

    As I said original hoisin sauce is made with soybean paste. Finding soybean paste can be more difficult than finding hoisin sauce. So I’m using peanut butter in place of soybeans which provides a similar taste. The color of the finished product will be lighter than the original as soybean paste is dark in color.

    You can use Hoison sauce in these recipes.

      Could I substitute the Sesame oil with olive oil or canola oil?
