Mumbo Sauce – Is D.C.’S Tube Sauce The Adjacent Big Thing?

Apparently, this sweet-and-sour condiment came to Washington D.C. via Chicago, where it somehow became a staple inwards Chinese take-out restaurants, served every bit a condiment with fried chicken wings, with other things. That’s every bit much background every bit you're getting here, together with similar many other regional culinary specialties, the history is murky.

All I know is that this was swell with fried chicken wings, together with I await frontwards to finding other uses for it, although I’m non certain French fries is going to live on ane of them. I’m a ketchup guy, together with belike also quondam to change. Having said that, I tin come across this catching on, together with for once, I’ll live on ahead of a trend.

They tell every takeout house inwards D.C. has their ain hole-and-corner recipe, but at that spot were quite a few published recipes on the Internet, together with then this is form of a composite, based on the extensive, xx minutes of interrogation I did. Stay tuned for the chicken fly experiment I mentioned inwards the video, together with inwards anticipation, I actually create promise yous hand this a endeavour soon. Enjoy!
