  4. Can I use hoisin sauce instead of oyster. I am allergic to seafood

    ReplyDelete
  5. YES! Hoisin sauce will work fine, it will just be a little sweeter, which depending on your taste may or may not be a good thing. There is one more closer alternative to oyster sauce. You can try mushroom sauce, or as sometimes labeled as 'Vegetarian Oyster Sauce'. They very closely resemble oyster sauce. So either will work! Thank you for watching! Please let me know how it turns out!
