Desperately seeking the PROPER sauce you get with duck and pancakes (chinese) but the plum sauce you buy from local supermarkets just is not the same? Where can I get the really thick proper stuff and what's it's proper name?

not sure where you live but look in your yellow pages for your nearest chinese supermarket they will have some there or talk to your local chinese resterant and ask who their supplier is
have a look here, you could email and ask them if you cant find it on the site

nelly,

are u referring to Hoi Sin Sauce?? just go to a chinese supermarket, they wil have them.

its called: Hoi Sin Sauce, it comes in a tin. xx
you can get Hoi sin sauce from any good supermarket i.e tesco's etc
sharky i dont think they are the proper Hoi Sin sauce, but its worth a try.
Its Hoi Sin sauce you can get it in most supermarkets these days we like to mix the plum sauce and hoi sin together - its really nice with the crispy duck n pancakes
Yes you can buy Hoi Sin Sauce from Tesco or Asda.

Hoi Sin Sauce straight from the can/bottle is too rich. Dilute it with 1tbs of boiled water to 2tbs of sauce and add half of lemon juice with abit of peel then simmer in a low heat for 5-10min. Let it cool then shove it in the fridge it should thicken, although you can spread whilst it's hot.

That's what I usaually do whenever I make my own crispy duck . Yum!
Even if you go for the supermarket option I'd definitely second the motion that you should visit a Chinese supermarket! There are some really big ones around - usually just outside of city centres. Well worth a visit just to see the huge range of other options there are for chinese food.
