Had this epiphany last night when we went to an asian fusion place. The similarities are uncanny

I think I’ll test this thought by using Sweet Baby Ray’s for my stir fry beef tomorrow.

[-] Alto@kbin.social 10 points 7 months ago

I've done similar before. It works far better than it should.

How do you extract just the sweet rays from the babies?

[-] Seventhlevin@lemmy.world 7 points 7 months ago

No, you don't understand. These are merely normal rays being extracted from sweet babies.

[-] Hegar@kbin.social 10 points 7 months ago

Hoisin is bbq sauce, sure. But I don't see how it's sweet baby Ray's in particular.

What are you talking about exactly?

[-] BarrelAgedBoredom@lemm.ee 7 points 7 months ago

They have very a similar flavor, so much so that id say they're basically interchangeable

[-] FartsWithAnAccent@lemmy.world 4 points 7 months ago

Damn, wish I knew that before I went to the store for hoisin sauce a few weeks ago lol

He’s saying they’re very similar basting sauces from distant cultures.

[-] JoMomma@lemm.ee 4 points 7 months ago

Ah okay, I thought maybe people were eating baby rays (manta, sting, etc ..)

Plum sauce is made from plums.

Duck sauce is made from ducks.

Hoisen sauce is made from hoisen.

I've made baby back ribs with hoisin sauce. They were alright, but an actual bbq sauce is much better.
