Yu Ding Xing Traditional Firewood Soybean Paste

$19.95

Bright and umami-forward, this all-purpose Traditional Firewood Soy Paste is made with black soybeans and rice flour, which are fermented for 6 months before being heated over a wood fire. Thick but still pourable, we like the sauce as a condiment, marinade or ingredient in sauces. Its versatile flavor is distinct but familiar; it’s reminiscent of soy sauce, gochujang and steak sauce, warmly spiced with a hint of anise from licorice and mirin. Use it for a complementary flavor in recipes that call for Chinese five-spice. Or use it to coat noodles, stir-fry vegetables and marinate meat with this balanced sauce.
