Hoisin Sauce is a delicious, sweet and spicy, dark red sauce made up of garlic, vinegar (typically rice vinegar), and other spices. It is widely used in southern Chinese cooking, and sometimes in Vietnamese dishes. For Vietnamese cooking, hoisin sauce is known as ‘tương đen’, and is a popular condiment for phở.
Typically, it is not gluten free though! Some of the main components, such as soy sauce and vinegar, may contain wheat. Especially if you buy pre-made hoisin sauce at the store, you have to look out for this.
That is why it may be a good idea to make your own gluten free hoisin sauce at home!
