CHINESE BLACK BEAN SAUCE
Fermented black beans mixed with traditional ingredients creates one of the most popular stir-fry sauces on a Chinese food menu. This pungent and earthy sauce is easy to make and will last in the refrigerator up to a month. It can also be frozen in small portions to easily be used for a quick stir-fry. Because of the saltiness of the beans, there is no need to add salt in the recipes where you use this sauce.

Steps:
- Rinse black beans thoroughly and dry. Remove about 1/4 cup and set aside. Roughly chop the rest of the beans.
- Heat vegetable oil in a large saucepan over medium-low heat. Add chiles, shallot, ginger, and garlic. Fry until soft and fragrant, about 5 minutes. Do not let the ingredients burn. Reduce the heat if necessary. The objective is to slow cook the ingredients. Add all the beans; both chopped and whole. Simmer, stirring often, until the beans are soft, about 2 minutes. Add tamari, rice wine, brown sugar, ground Sichuan pepper, and five spice. Simmer until thickened, stirring often. Remove from heat; let cool, about 10 minutes.
- Mix in sesame oil and cover. As the sauce rests, the beans will settle and the oil will float, creating a barrier which will protect it from mold. The sauce is ready to use or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 month.

ORIENTAL BLACK BEAN SAUCE
Posted by request. Oriental Black Bean Sauce is a popular ingredient in many Asian dishes. The black beans in this sauce are actually soy beans which have been allowed to mature and ferment, creating a complex mix of flavours. They are easily obtained from Chinese supermarkets. Black bean sauce teams well with stir-fried beef or chicken, and any combination of vegetables such as bok choy, asparagus, baby corn, carrot, celery, mushrooms, snow peas, small sprigs of cauliflower and/or broccoli, bamboo shoots, water chestnuts, and so on. Be warned, it does have a rather high salt content, so there is little need to add salt either to the sauce or the finished dish. Unless stored in the freezer, this sauce should be refrigerated and used within a few days of making. Preparation time includes soaking the beans for 30 minutes.
