I love rainbow dishes.  My veggie lo mein recipe<\/a> is a delicious rainbow dish that I love and I often make.  One of the ingredients is hoisin sauce. Hoisin sauce is an Asian condiment used in a variety of ways because it adds to the flavor of the food.  It’s usually dark, thick, and it can resemble jelly in stores.  The ingredients are often not that healthy, and depending upon the brand, may even contain seafood derivatives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In my experience, it\u00a0is always safer, better, and healthier to make it from scratch. If you ever need a wonderful, plant-based hoisin sauce, use the below\u00a0recipe. \u00a0Unlike the store-bought\u00a0sauce, my homemade version is thick liquid, (not a thick jelly). \u00a0Both the peanut butter and the molasses add to the sauce’s thickness in one version, but the cornstarch helps the other thicken. \u00a0Both versions yield around one cup ( ~3\/4 c.).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Recipes: 1. Hoisin Sauce with peanut butter \/ 2. without peanut butter<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
