Notes: 
Hoisin sauce is a sweet-spicy condiment most often used in Asian-flavored dishes. It packs a flavorful punch and works wonderfully alongside meat and vegetables in stir-fry recipes.
Store bought Hoisin Sauce contains a high amount of sugar and carbs, but this homemade version is low carb and flavorful. (It is salty, so do not add additional salt to any dish you add this sauce to.)
