Man I love this place- so many new things to try and buy

can someone help me out with what Red Boat is and how Black soy differs from dark?
I really want to try this but would rather not substitute first time out of the gate
thanks!~

Red Boat is very good fish sauce.

I am waiting for Landarc to chime in on your other question.

Yeah, where is Landarc? It's like he just ignored everyone.

Red Boat is a GREAT fish sauce. As far as substitutions go, you can leave out the Red Boat and use regular soy sauce if you don't have the black. The flavor will be a bit different, but it will still be excellent. For those not familiar, we normally cook this with beef. I prefer to use Top Sirloin. I posted this because I'd never tried pork before.

This is my Dark Soy. It's Chinese. It is thicker, a little less salty with a rounder flavor (some sweet maybe?). How does your Black Soy sauce compare?

The second ingredient on mine is molasses, otherwise it's very similar. I'd take a picture, but for some reason photobucket won't let me log in, something about account maintenance. Farkers. :tsk:

Is your black soy sauce Chinese or Japanese or somewhere else? They are likely similar. Maybe with some regional subtleties.

I had to give this a try tonight...wow!

I cooked mine on a pizza screen I got from a 'rant supply company...best $5 investment!

Ours is from Hong Kong, this time. I'm sure we've used half a dozen different brands from who knows where.

Glad you liked it. This website has information on the red "goop" :becky:

It's not essential, but it is good, especially if you like umami. You can buy it through Amazon.

Gore. Good stuff. Made with pork tenderloin. Everyone in the family enjoyed it a lot. It does stick though. So next time I will probably use some thin expanded metal to make it easier.
