Wow, as everyone else says, this was so delicious I will never buy bottled again! It's also a very forgiving recipe - I used Sriracha hot sauce because I didn't have the Chinese hot sauce. It was so good I just wanted to drink it from a cup!

If you are wondering if all these rave reviews are for real, they are! And as you look at it and wonder if peanut paste could possibly be an ok ingredient, it is. This works and works well.

I needed this sauce for a recipe and couldn't find it anywhere, so I looked it up in the store and decided to make it. It turned out amazing! My boyfriend and I were very pleased and we will be making this sauce again! Thank you!

The bbq sauce I was making called for hoisin sauce but one of my guests is on a gluten free diet. I tried this recipe (using gluten free soy sauce, etc) & was VERY pleased with the results. Quick & easy to make & really good!

This sauce saved my butt!! I was cooking chinese chicken lettuce wraps for the first time (for 20+ people) and the sauce I had a recipe for came out disgusting. I quickly googled 'homemade hoisin sauce' and decided to make this. It was quick, easy and tasty! I would recommend putting the completed mixture over a burner of low heat for 10 minutes or so to help the peanut butter mix in. I also used natural peanut butter which doesn't have the added sugars and oils that the JIF kind does so maybe that helped cut down on the 'too peanut-buttery' taste other reviewers mentioned. THanks so much to whoever created this!!

I was in the middle of making broccoli chicken and discovered I needed hoisin - so I looked it up. I use online recipes all the time, but I never bother to write a review. I really liked this one. It is SO easy and all of the ingredients are stuff I have on hand. Very tasty. I will never buy hoisin sauce again!

very good. I needed Hosin sauce for a pork recipe/didn't have any so went looking. I used both the Peanut butter/beans and both the honey/molasses instead of choosing 1 or the other.

This tastes nothing like store-bought hoisin: it's much tastier!

Never can find kosher hoisin sauce, so looking this one up. It was AWESOME for the Mongolian Flank Steak and Noodle/Veggie Salad! Definitely would use again and again...

I only had miso paste, and that works very well too, with the peanut butter. Great stuff. No more jar stuff. A jar of hoisin tends to get only 1/2 used before expiring.

Yum! I used the peanut butter and 1/2 honey, 1/2 molasses, 1/2 garlic powder 1/2 onion powder. Will never buy bottled again.

I used this recipe with my own variations and it turned out great for Shanghai chicken and Noodles.

This is great stuff! I used what I had in the cupboard, so I substituted red bean paste and used a black treacle / honey mixture. Minced garlic and sambal oelek for the kick, worked like a charm.
