Quick glossy finish for greens and stir-fries.
What it is
Oyster sauce is reduced oyster extract with sugar and starch — one tablespoon gives vegetables a restaurant-style glossy finish. It burns easily, so add it late in cooking or off heat, mixed with a splash of water. Vegetarian mushroom stir-fry sauce tastes remarkably close.
