This sauce is wonderful for steamed dumplings. I added a teaspoon of hot chili sauce to give it some heat. If you don't like hot then add just a little.

I used this as a dipping sauce for edamame stuffed won-tons. It worked ok but the sauce was way too salty for my tastes. Next time I would cut back on the soy sauce. I’d also recommend extra ginger.

This was pretty good, but a little salty. Next time I'll add a little water or rice vinegar as others suggested. I like mine a bit sweeter, so I might add a little more of the hoisin sauce or sugar. It went very well with the pork and ginger pot stickers that I made for the first time.

The dip itself was incredibly salty even though I used low sodium soya sauce HOWEVER, when I paired it with Beefy Chinese Dumplings which is a rather unsalty dumpling, it tasted okay.

Sorry, I did not like this. I was looking for something lighter, so I added lots of rice wine vinegar and lemon juice. Perhaps my hoisin was too sweet.

Love this sauce! I used with the Beefy Chinese Dumplings on this site. I made the sauce the night before I was to use it, and the flavor was a bit strong. I just added some lemon and it was fine. Next time I wont let it stay that long in the fridge. Love it!

I made this sauce twice to go with Trader Joe's veggie dumplings. The second time around, I increased the amount of fresh ginger, which turned out to be too strong. Stick with the original recipe...it's hard to beat!

Easy to make and I had everything on hand which is always a plus. I really didn't care much for this though as the soy was really strong. I even cut the soy with half teriaki sauce. This reminded me of the dumpling sauce you get an oriental restaurants. This was ok but just not for me.

I know I'm going to be in the minority here when I say that I did not care for this sauce. It is far too overpowering.

Not my favorite dipping sauce, but pretty good. Perhaps it was not the best was due to my substitution of sweet & sour over hoisin sauce.
