Easy Homemade Hoisin Sauce Recipe

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))

½ teaspoon Chinese Five Spice Powder (use more as desired)

2 teaspoons Sriracha ((or use any Chinese hot sauce, red chili sauce, chili paste or try your favorite hot sauce))

1 teaspoon cornstarch

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.
