Sauce for Pressed Tofu Sheet Wraps

You can use hoisin, but that sauce comes from southern China. Get much closer to northeaster China by combining a few ingredients. Korean doenjang is very similar to pure, unadulterated fermented bean paste used in many parts of East Asia. A dark miso, such as Hatcho, would work too.

Ingredients

  • ¼ cup Korean doenjang fermented bean paste
  • 1 tablespoon agave syrup
  • 1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil

Instructions

  • Stir together and add water by the ½ to 1 tablespoon until the consistency of a thick, plop-able sauce. water. Aim for a salty, fatty, slightly sweet flavor.
