I love watching your videos with my mother.
You’re the best Derek ! Thank you for doing the work for us !
i have never even heard of this sauce but now i wanna try it, which is exactly why we need videos like these, thanks man!
I bought that bbq because of you I was literally using it every day it taste delicious when you added to crispy tofu.
it’s so good!
Derik! This is epic. I was literally at my grocery store 1 hour ago and I ALMOST bought this because of how much you use it… I decided not to buy it because of the ingredients and the price… I’m so glad to be able to check out this tutorial thank you!! 🙏
Awesome, I hope you like my version 😀
After hearing about it from you, I vaguely remembered seeing it at Costco. The last time I went to Costco I went looking for it & there was none to be found. I’m in Ontario. Definitely worth making as it will be 100% healthier. Thanks!
The only place I’ve seen it is Amazon.
I especially like the use of fresh ingredients!!
I rushed to my kitchen to make your second version. It’s fantastic! I don’t have dates and used two small sweet apples. Thank you so much, Derek.
oh wow, apples are a great substitute. Glad you liked it!
It’s honestly incredible how hard your videos and recipes go sometimes. I’ve been cooking most of my life and am continuously surprised by the techniques you use, the ways you prepare things, and cracking the code on beloved condiments like bachan’s. Well done as always 💖
Thank you!
Mayonnaise, it is getting ready to be summer and I need a vegan version for tomato sandwiches, potato salad, etc. I like the way that you tell the whole story… With options for everybody 🙏
Yes pls!!!!!
Yes please 🎉
Mayo, yes! In past I’ve made homemade mayo but it takes eggs
Silken tofu blended works well for a sandwich spread, if you add some seasonings
Genius at work! Thanks for the healthier version. Much appreciated. 🙏🏻
Would love it if you would demo orange sauce or how to make a vegan version of orange chicken without mushrooms.
Also a sweet and sour sauce to drizzle over veggie stir fry would be great.
Love your videos!
Thank you for making them.
AGREED!!
I have been looking for that sauce since you did your Costco haul ….never could find it. Now I don’t need to…..thank you!!
I bought this brand because of you. In the US I get mine in Walmart. I recently bought the miso flavored one.👍🏾
My hero!!!! This sauce is so expensive here and obviously not the healthiest but soooo good. I kept meaning to write you to request a homemade version. Dream come true! You’re the best!
I think your twist with the dates will be the one I trye 😊
So timely! I almost bought this at Costco the other day, now I can make the healthier version! Thank you, Derek! You never disappoint!❤
I’m Japanese, so I’m glad to watch this!! Thank you as always!!
I love this sauce! The Costco size one is in my fridge right now. I’m excited to make a healthier version, thank you for cracking the code!!!
Amazing, the replica and the healthy version, thanks Derek!
