San J sauce - Do not go without!




I LOVE this sauce. I use it on just about everything.

Originally I bought it to recreate an Annie Chungs noodle pack. You know, sometimes you just want your ramen. I was in a Schezwan mood, so I picked up a box. It was nearly $4.00 - and while the spices were nice, it wasn't really worth it. I figured if I could find or make my own sauce and use .10 cent noodles I'd be in business!

I found this at Albertsons, but I have seen it many places. It was fantastic on the .10 cent ramen! Though, the first time I used a bit too much and while I love heat, it was a little much. A tablespoon actually is more than enough for the right amount of kick.

Since then I've used it in everything from marinades - delicious with seafood and chicken - to scrambled eggs and of course chinese food. Also fantastic on a grilled veggie mix such as peppers and asparagus. (more on those in a future post)

Do yourself a big favor and add this into your condiment line up. You'll be tickled pink!
