    I love watching your videos with my mother.

  • @TrulyTara86 says:

    You’re the best Derek ! Thank you for doing the work for us !

  • @iniyama says:

    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!

  • @Kahlofrida13 says:

    I bought that bbq because of you I was literally using it every day it taste delicious when you added to crispy tofu.

  • @carlypastore says:

    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!! 🙏

  • @alidapc says:

    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!

  • @alienf18 says:

    I especially like the use of fresh ingredients!!

  • @apple369 says:

    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.

  • @melo7444 says:

    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 💖

  • @crystalwebb5725 says:

    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 🙏

  • @Cyd1057 says:

    Genius at work! Thanks for the healthier version. Much appreciated. 🙏🏻

  • @karenbeidelman5331 says:

    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.

  • @laureenjohnson5570 says:

    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!!

  • @cheznardi says:

    I bought this brand because of you. In the US I get mine in Walmart. I recently bought the miso flavored one.👍🏾

  • @laceyboschert363 says:

    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!

  • @Frualbertsson says:

    I think your twist with the dates will be the one I trye 😊

  • @eileenharris2855 says:

    So timely! I almost bought this at Costco the other day, now I can make the healthier version! Thank you, Derek! You never disappoint!❤

  • @snoopy.358 says:

    I’m Japanese, so I’m glad to watch this!! Thank you as always!!

  • @veganwildfire7522 says:
