Meishi Hoisin sauce is a thick, fragrant sauce commonly used in Cantonese cuisine as a glaze for meat, an addition to stir fry, or as dipping sauce. It is darkly-coloured in appearance and sweet and salty in taste. Although regional variants exist, hoisin sauce usually includes soybeans, fennel, red chili peppers, and garlic. Vinegar, five-spice powder and sugar are also commonly added. The word hoisin is derived from a shortening of the Chinese words for “seafood sauce”, although the sauce does not contain any seafood ingredients and is not commonly consumed with seafood. The reason for the name is “seafood flavour”, a common adjective in Chinese cuisine, especially Sichuanese.
