NOTES : The delicious sauce is traditionally served with Vietnamese rice

paper wrapped salad rolls. But I've found that when embellished with

garlic, chilies and ginger, it's a great accompaniment to grilled fish,

chicken and beef. Note that the saltiness of hoisin sauce can vary so

adjust the seasonings accordingly.

Courage is what it takes to stand up and speak; courage is also what it

takes to sit down and listen.
