Ingredients

Servings

4 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons rice vinegar
2 tablespoons peanut butter (Or try it with tahini or black bean sauce - peanut butter is more readily available and easier)
3 cloves garlic minced - 1 teaspoon garlic powder is good instead
2 tablespoons honey (you can use brown sugar instead)
1/2 teaspoon Chinese five spice powder use more as desired

Instructions

Add all of the ingredients to a small pot, except for the cornstarch.
Heat to medium heat and warm through, stirring, until the ingredients combine.
In a small bowl, whisk the cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of cold water, until the cornstarch dissolves.
Pour the cornstarch and water mixture into the hoisin sauce pot and whisk until well combined.
Heat for another 1-2 minutes, until the hoisin sauce thickens.
Serve!

Notes

Makes about 1 cup of hoisin sauce.
Heat Factor: Mild, though you can spice it up with more sriracha sauce, chili paste, or the addition of spicy chili flakes.
