Meaning of black-bean sauce | Babel Free

Definitions

Noun. [B2]

Examples

“Try spicy dumplings, fried sea bass with black-bean sauce or the seafood congee.”

“If you’re not in a spicy mood, this restaurant also does a great job with dim sum small plates like translucent “crystal shrimp dumplings” (har gow, a Cantonese dim sum favorite), pan-seared turnip cakes with sweet cured sausage and dried shrimp, or miniature steamed spare ribs in black-bean sauce.”

“Aroma started out serving Cantonese-style crowdpleasers – sticky, black-bean sauces, piles of chow mein and battered pork in sunset-orange sweet-and-sour – but these days it calls itself pan-Asian, shape-shifting in line with the modern British palate.”
