You can use this sauce in many ways. For marinades, combine it with other ingredients and let your meat soak for at least 30 minutes, or longer for deeper flavor. It works wonderfully as a finishing glaze, brushed onto ribs, chicken wings, or pork during the last few minutes of cooking on the grill or in the oven. Stir it into fried rice or noodles for an instant flavor boost. It also serves as a delicious dipping sauce for spring rolls, dumplings, or even french fries.
