Note 1676 is dedicated to egg rolls and spring rolls. Note 1676.4
contains my wife's sweet & sour sauce recipe. Other responces conatin
other dipping sauces.
Note 1705 also contains some recipes (though if I recall all those
are also 'hot').
The problem is that sweet & sour are merely two of the basic flavour
elements, and almost all oriental cookery is dedicated to various
balances of the basic flavours. There are almost as many recipes
for these sauces as there are provinces, if not villages, in the
region. There are of course broad brush-stroke variations between
Chinese, Thai, Lao, Cambodian, Vietnamese,... sauces.

| 1760.2 | try looking under a plum or duck sauce... | LEDDEV::KAGEN | Mike Kagen, 223-3010, LEDE, Maynard | Wed Jun 14 1989 14:49 | 11 |
| What you may be looking for is what is called "Duck Sauce" or "Plum
Sauce". It's different from sweet and sour sauce. Typically that is
what you find in restaurants. I have seen bottled brands of this stuff
but it is generaly terrible. I make mine from jam (any flavor works
thats why some taste like cherry some orange etc), vinegar, sugar, and
I can't remember what else. Its been so long since I've made it I can't
remember the recipe and I can't seem to find the one I wrote down.
Sorry.

| 1760.3 | forget duck sauce and use plum sauce | PSW::WINALSKI | Careful with that VAX, Eugene | Sun Sep 17 1989 21:24 | 7 |
| The sauce you're thinking of is called duck sauce. You can find it in almost
any supermarket these days. I prefer plum sauce, which is similar but less
like applesauce and more tasty. Koon Chun is a good brand. You can find it in
stores in Chinatown or most oriental specialty shops. China Bowl is another
good brand more frequently found in supermarkets.
