Oh if only I could give 10 stars! The only substitution I made was to use white wine instead of sherry because that's what I had. My batch didn't come out too salty at all as some folks complained. My only explanation for this is that I only ever use low-sodium soy sauce. I don't know if this is what made the difference, though. I also lightly sprinkled sesame seeds on a few of the skewers the last few minutes of grilling. I've never cooked with hoisin sauce or even ginger root before so I was a little leary, but oh my gosh! For our bbq yesterday, I used several recipes from this site: the basil shrimp skewers were the second biggest hit. I also tried the basic kabobs recipe just with veggies (was just eh. Probably won't make again.), BBQ Sausage & Peppers (next time will just throw the Johnsonville Brats on the grill instead of going thru all this trouble), and then did our old standby of marinading overnight chicken breast chunks in Italian dressing (the third best recipe of the day). Vivian, thank you SO much for your recipe!
