Thanks again, Maggie

The sugar adds a nice fragrance to the sauce and it mellows the salty taste of the sauce. That’s being said, you can skip the sugar or reduce it. The sauce will be more pungent but should still be tasty.

I love the flavor of fermented black beans, but takeout places usually oversaturate their proteins, and jar sauces are so salty. With your recipe I can control the amount and use the sauce for other dishes. I truly love the recipe. Posted photos (multiple, including just the resulting sauce) on Instagram, tagged and hashtagged. Thanks again!

I followed the recipe exactly but cooked it a bit longer on low heat. I made a simple fried rice with slices of pork chashu and scrambled eggs. What I did with this sauce is pure magic… to a small sauce pan I added 1 cup of water and brought it to a simmer and added chicken stock powder than 3 tbsp of the black bean sauce, stirred it up then added cornstarch slurry to thicken it. Poured on top of rice. Amazingly delicious. It’s incredible thanks so much for this amazing recipe.

Since learning how to make my own five spice powder and seeing how massive the difference is between that and store-bought, I thought it’d be worth it to give making this black bean sauce a go. Equally as big a difference. Thanks so much for sharing this recipe!

Made for the mapo tofu recipe but my favorite use is just to add to suateed veggies and/or scrambled eggs
