Honey Hoisin Basting Sauce Recipes

ROAST DUCK WITH A HONEY SOY BASTING SAUCE

Steps:

• Note: I never measure the basting sauce exactly, I think this should be about right, but do adjust for taste if I am a little off.
• Wash duck under cold water and remove any missed feathers.
• Combine all the basting ingredients and boil over a high heat for about 2 minutes. Keep sauce warm while basting, stirring occasionally.
• Place duck in a roasting dish, brush with basting sauce. Bake in a slow oven (130°C) for about three hours, bast several times while cooking. (I like to do this slow to stop the skin from burning.).
• Turn the oven up to 170-180 and continue to roast for a further 30-45 minutes until skin is browned and crisp and duck is cooked through.
• As the duck is finishing off, mix a little water with cornflour, turn up the heat on stove, add cornflour to basting sauce and stir until mixture thickens. (I say 1-2 teaspoons of cornflour, the amount will depend on how much of the sauce has been used during cooking and how much it has reduced by.).
• Serve Duck with basting sauce.

HOISIN CHICKEN THIGHS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Mix honey, hoisin sauce, ketchup, orange juice, mustard, ginger, Worcestershire sauce, garlic, orange zest, and cayenne pepper together in a 9x13-inch baking dish. Add chicken thighs and coat with the mixture. Cover baking dish with aluminum foil.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 1 hour, basting at least 3 times. Remove foil and continue baking, uncovered, until chicken is browned on top, about 15 minutes.

CHICKEN WINGS WITH HOISIN SAUCE AND HONEY

Steps:

• Combine water and salt in a large resealable plastic bag. Add garlic powder, ground ginger, and black pepper. Add chicken wings. Remove excess air and seal bag. Place in the refrigerator for 2 hours. Remove chicken from brine and drain in a colander. Rinse and pat dry.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a broiling pan.
• Combine hoisin sauce, honey, garlic, chopped ginger, and crushed red pepper in a large bowl. Add chicken and mix well to coat. Let sit while you toast sesame seeds.
• Heat a nonstick pan over medium heat and add sesame seeds. Shake and cook until lightly toasted, 1 to 3 minutes. Transfer to a plate lined with a paper towel to cool.
• Transfer wings to the prepared broiling pan, reserving sauce in the bowl.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes, basting every 10 minutes with reserved sauce. Remove wings from the oven and baste again with sauce.
• Set an oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and turn on the oven's broiler. Broil wings until slightly charred, 2 to 3 minutes per side.
• Serve topped with toasted sesame seeds.

HOISIN & HONEY GLAZED SALMON

Steps:

• Preheat broiler. Mix hoisin sauce, honey and pineapple juice., Place salmon in a foil-lined 15x10x1-in. baking pan. Broil 4-5 in. from heat 12-14 minutes or until fish just begins to flake easily with a fork. Baste occasionally with 1/4 cup hoisin mixture during the last 6 minutes of cooking. Serve with remaining sauce.

HOISIN AND HONEY PORK RIBLETS

Steps:

• In a kettle of boiling salted water simmer the ribs, covered, for 30 minutes and drain them well. In a large bowl whisk together the honey, the soy sauce, the garlic paste, the hoisin sauce, the mustard, the vinegar, and black pepper to taste, add the ribs, and toss the mixture well, coating the ribs thoroughly. Let the ribs marinate, chilled, for at least 1 hour or overnight.
• Remove the ribs from the marinade, arrange them in one layer on the oiled rack of a foil-lined broiler pan, and broil them under a preheated broiler about 4 inches from the heat, basting them with the marinade, for 3 minutes. Turn the ribs with tongs and broil them, basting them with the marinade, for 2 to 3 minutes more, or until they are browned well and glazed. Discard the marinade.
