Hi, I was just watching Rachel Ray and she was cooking with Hoisin sause, she called it chinese sweet and sour sause, I want to try it, does anyone know a brand that is gluten-free? Is it spicy? I get terrible heartburn so need to be careful.

thanks!

I haven't found a gluten free one..I did see a recipe for a homemade one on www.recipezaar.com.

I don't find it spicy, I think it is kind of sweet and salty, and a little thick.

Dynasty makes a gluten-free hoisin sauce and there are others -- I just can't remember the brand names off the top of my head. Just check the ingredients. Hoisin sauce is awesome. I add it to sauteed beef with brocolli and sometimes I just dip stuff in it straight out of the jar/bottle.

Aaaand this is what drives me insane about Rachael Ray. Warning -- I'm about to get really petty! "Chinese sweet and sour sauce?" Number one, Hoisin sauce is really nothing like sweet and sour sauce. It's sweet but not sour. I read somewhere that Hoisin sauce is basically China's version of ketchup as the Chinese often use it as a sauce to dip fried things in. Number two, Sweet and Sour sauce IS CHINESE! There is no need to say that anything -- let alone Hoisin sauce -- is the "Chinese version" of Sweet and Sour sauce because Sweet and Sour Sauce is the Chinese Sweet and Sour sauce. Yes, I know other cuisines have "sweet and sour" sauces but the chinese kind of have it covered more or less. It's like saying "oh this is like an italian version of pasta". Shut up, Rachael Ray!

I also watched Rachael Ray today when she cooked with the Hoisin sauce, she actually refered to it as Chinese BBQ sauce. I am going to try to find the gluten-free kind and try it, everyone I know that has has it said it is wonderful.

so sorry I must have heard her wrong?? BBQ or sweet and sour either way I was just curious about it, It will be nice to have a new sauce for stir fry, though we do love my homemade teriyaki sauce.

I've got one here in my hands that is Premier Japan Organic Wheat-Free Hoisin Sauce with a little note on the side that says Edward & Son's Trading Co. And the official description is.... "Asian Sauce for grilling & barbeque". It is Yummy!

I think I got it at Whole Foods.

      Nausea

      I have trouble with nausea. It often starts when I’m anxious about something (home repairs, sick dog) but continues long after the home is repaired or the dog is healthy again. When it happens I eat less and lose weight. My gastroenterologist suggested ginger or peppermint tea. I don’t know if that will work or not because I haven't had the problem since she...

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      Of course my son is on a 100% gluten free diet. I wish his symptoms were not debilitating as there are right now. He cannot work, even when a miniscule of cross contamination occurs. It's not just GI distress, but intense fatigue, brain fog, depression, anxiety, insomnia, etc. It's literally neurological inflammation. Not to be taken lightly here. We...

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      Have you tried AN-PEP enzymes, for example, GlutenX (who is a sponsor here)? A lot of research has shown that it can break down small amounts of gluten in the stomach, before it reaches the intestines. It might be a better approach than risking nicotine addiction, and the questionable research around this. I also hope that he’s trying to be 100% Gluten-F...

      Nausea

      Hi all I was diagnosed Coeliac a few years ago and follow a gluten free diet. The list of foods that I can eat without a problem grows shorter on a weekly basis. [I also have diabetes and asthma also]. BUT the reason I am posting this is because I seem to struggle with nausea quite a lot, which is really quite debilitating, and I was wondering...

      Hello  I'm not sure what to think . Seems no matter what I do I get sick. I had some yogurt with only 2 grams of sugar and is labeled gluten free ...the strawberry version seemed to really set me off My jaw is burning as well as my stomach and my feet.  Horrible pain..plus acid reflux and nausea... sensitivity to touch pain. ..yikes !! I don't know if it's from the lactose in the yogurt or if I'm getting an ulcer  This condition can make you question yourself quite a bit.  Then if you are not sure the anxiety comes 😞 Does any of these symptoms sound familiar to anyone? The neuropathy is quite intense.  What do you eat or drink after this happens  Open to suggestions  Thank you
