Most of the oyster sauces on the market are oyster-flavored seasoning because they contain almost no oyster. I spent a lot of time researching the commercial oyster sauce-making process, then tested and modified this recipe for home cooking. I increased the oyster ratio so the umami taste becomes significantly better; plus, you can custom the sauce to your needs, such as no food additives, low sodium, less sugar, or gluten-free.
INGREDIENTS
To make the oyster liquid
1 lb (454g) of shucked oyster (the weight includes the liquid, the actual oyster is only 10 oz)
6 cups (1.4 L) of water
1 tbsp (17g) of salt
1 shallot, sliced thinly
1 scallion cut into stalks
2 cloves of garlic
1/2 inch of ginger, sliced thinly
To make the Caramel Solution
10 tbsp (125g) of sugar
2 cups of water
To Season and Thicken the Oyster Sauce
2 tbsp + 2 tsp (45g) of salt
1.5 tbsp (25 g) of dark soy sauce (Amazon Link - geni.us/dark-soy-sauce)
1 tbsp of MSG, optional
Cornstarch water (3 tbsp of water mixed with 1.5 tbsp of cornstarch)
INSTRUCTIONS
Make a salt solution by dissolving 1 tbsp of salt into 6 cups of water.
Add one cup of salt solution (reserve the rest for later use), the shucked oysters, and the liquid from the shucked oysters into a sauce pot. Then bring it to a boil and simmer for 5 minutes.
Pour the cooked oyster&water through a sieve and collect the liquid into a big pot.
Put the cooked oysters, shallot, ginger, scallion, garlic, and 1 cup of salt solution into a powerful blender. Blend into a puree.
Pour the oyster puree into the saucepot and simmer for 5 minutes. Then let it go through a fine cheesecloth with a big pot to collect the liquid.
Rinse the blender and the sauce pot with 1 cup of the salt solution, then pour it through the cheesecloth; this helps to cool down the oyster puree so you can squeeze it with your hand.
In batches, continue to rinse the oyster puree with the rest of the salt solution. Stir well and squeeze the cheesecloth until no more liquid comes down. Discard the solid part of the oyster.
Simmer the big pot of oyster liquid over medium-low heat for 1-1.5 hours or until 1/3 cup of liquid is left. You don't need to babysit the pot the whole time, but keep an eye on it to prevent burning.
While waiting, heat the sugar in a saucepot over medium-low heat. Stir for 6-8 minutes or until all the sugar is melted and the color turns golden brown. Pour in 2 cups of water and bring to a simmer to dissolve the caramel. Turn off the heat and remove it to the side.
Check back the oyster liquid. Once you have 1/3 cup of liquid left, turn the heat to the lowest and stir for 5-8 minutes or until the liquid turns into a brown sticky paste. This is what we call oyster concentrate, which is too flavorful to cook with.
Add the caramel solution to the oyster concentrate in batches and stir thoroughly to dissolve.
Season oyster caramel solution with salt, dark soy sauce, and MSG; then bring it to a simmer. Add the cornstarch water in batches and stir until the sauce thickens.
Store the oyster sauce in clean, sealable jars for two months in the fridge and 12 months in the freezer. Use this sauce for any recipe that asks for oyster sauce. - แนวปฏิบัติและการใช้ชีวิต

What a fascinating process, and I can't begin to imagine how much research, trial and error you put into this one Mandy. I would love to see a soy sauce recipe just to understand the process in so much detail like you've done here for oyster sauce.
You can TH-cam it it's not hard to find
@@mrmagoo4134 i mean, true, but since aaron specifically enjoyed the way mandy presented this recipe a soy sauce recipe by another person might not be what he's looking for :P
It’s something she might have be taught growing up… not teaching her self from scratch.
Nice
You are such a determined and smart cook. I am always impressed by the amount of thought and research you put into your recipe development. I also love the detailed explanations you provide. You are a true ambassador to your wonderful culture. Please continue making homemade versions of popular Chinese condiments and sauces.
Mandy, you are the absolute best instructor on TH-cam! Your recipes are so easy to duplicate because you give such perfect step-by-step instructions AND explanations! You are the best! Thank you for making Chinese food sooo approachable for us!💛🥰
You are so welcome!
I had no intention of making oyster sauce from scratch cause I’ve never questioned the quality of the store bought. I watched the video out of curiosity but you made it look simple and really convinced me there would be a noticeable difference in quality. I might try it out as an activity with friends/family. Thank you!
In one phrase? "Genius Food Scientist!" Excellent! Thank you so much for sharing. ❤️🌹👍
As a (retired) scientist, I was thinking the same thing. I greatly appreciate the time and effort that went in to developing your recipe and this video. When I get near the end of the bottle of sauce I bought, I hope I'll devote the time and effort to follow your directions precisely. The result wil certainly be a Success! Many thanks!
I think this is Mandy's best video so far. I don't necessarily mean best recipe but rather, that it perfectly demonstrates how committed she is to assessing all the varieties of a recipe and then fine tuning the process for us, all while making it seem absolutely achievable at home because she makes the explanation so clear and concise. Of all my fave Asian recipe channels on TH-cam (and to be clear - there are a LOT, including greats like Chinese Cooking Demystified, Chef Wang Gang, Marion's Kitchen, Adam Liaw, and Hot Thai Kitchen, amongst others) I think Souped Up Recipes might actually be the best/my fave. Truly, she's already built the channel up so much, and I sooo hope that she absolutely blows up soon, since she deserves any and all accolades that would come her way, in an ideal world. Rock on Mandy - I never thought I'd ever wanna blend oysters, but here I am :P
mandy!!!! this is an insanely detailled recipe and it's amazing how much research went into this, we really appreciate it!! ❤❤
Thank you, Mandy, it's amazing how much reference work and effort you took to perfect this homemade recipe to perfection for us. Your calculations are impeccable which yield a beautifully rich natural oyster sauce without chemicals. Superb job, well done indeed! 💜
Congratulations for the hard work in order to have the final recipe, this is both amazing and impressive.
She can make her own Oyster Sauce Brand! That's also genuis!
The amount of research and overall work that you do for your videos is absolutely amazing! I’ll be joining your patreon! Simply wonderful! Thank you, Mandy!
Hi Mandy, thank you for showing us on how to make authentic oyster sauce from the scratch! I never know I needed to make this.
You are so welcome!
I'm glad TH-cam recommended your channel. Most of the time, we use or consume stuff without thinking one bit, how it is made or what are the processes and all the other things involved that led to the creation of the final product.
You spared us the time to do the research and provided us with great information. Thank you!
Im so happy to see this channel grow since the beginning. Super well produced and unique food content.
I can see the quality of the process put into this video...
The fact that she made the homemade oyster sauce in a way that makes it interchangeable with the store-bought variation is insanely impressive.
This was one of my favorite videos of yours! I am gluten-free and have a number of food sensitivities, so I am SO excited to try your recipe! I would love to see you cook Hoison sauce and fish sauce!
Fish Sauce isn't exactly cooked, you make it by shoving a bunch of anchovies into a barrel with salt and let it ferment in a basement for a year.
@@GenericMcName Nasty!
Usually fish sauce brands manufactured outside of US are gluten free. Three that come to mind are Golden Boy, Red Boat and Squid Brand
I’ve found Golden Boy & Squid Brand at HMart in the PNW.
@@kathleenkulman7841 That is great to know! I will have to see if we have that in our health food stores in the Midwest. Thank you!
My new favorite cooking channel!! I appreciate the education by a brilliant, caring teacher. Thank you from Ohio, USA.
I will probably stick to store bought for convenience, but I do love seeing the process! I had no idea how much actually went into making oyster sauce so it was very interesting. I would absolutely love to see more of this!
Hey Mandy, that's a great vid, you have put a lot of effort and research into this one and thank you. I always love seeing you here and looking forward to what you have next. Thank you so much❤
Mandy, your videos are so wonderful. I always feel well educated and excited to try your recipes. I loved your reference to Uncle Rodger, he is the King of MSG. Thank you for dedication to showing us how to eat deliciously.
You’re amazing. Thank you for all the work, gathering info, testing....I appreciate it. Your recipes are always perfect 🙏🏻
Your hard work, determination and effort to achieve the best recipes to share with us is incredible
I’ll probably never make the oyster sauce, but I am so happy to know how it’s made, thank you!
Yes. Do a series of all the sauces. Excellent idea.
Super awesome video! Congrats on the research and the final product!
I can't wait to make this!
Hi Mandy! My goodness! I can't imagine how much time you spent on the experiments. Your analytical style is perfect. Thank you for sharing the process with us, and better still, you've considered the use of the oyster solids too! Amazing! I'm definitely going to try this.
ive been watching your channel for years and have learned so much. love how much you have grown and succeeded! proud of you!
I had no idea you could make oyster sauce from scratch... thank you for your hard work and calculations for this recipe Mandy!
Thank you so much for this, it means so much to those of us with food sensitivities that can't eat commercial sauces!
ALWAYS SO KIND! Love Ya Lady!!!
Mandy you are the best! From scratch like no one else. Keep up your good work!
Your love of research and experimentation makes you the most amazing teacher. Thank you so much for doing all the work to create this video. I'm will definitely be trying this.
I’m so happy you made this video, Mandy. I can’t wait to try it
Hope you like it!
This is very well researched. Good job Mandy!
I love watching your videos. I used to try to cook traditional dishes but, not now. Keep making traditional dishes for us to use. We greatly appreciate all you teach us.
thank you for all your hard work calculating for us home cooks, it is really appreciated.
Absolutely. This is the kind of important videos we need to see. I am assuming this to be a classic process, and I am excited to try it myself.
thank you for your hard work that went into this recipe! What a great video!
I can't wait to make this. Thank you, Mandy!
Absolutely fabulous, Mandy! Many thanks! BTW, your wok has become the most used pot/pan in my kitchen! It is so versatile, and so easy to clean and use. Love it!
Thank you for the support. I am glad you enjoyed using it.
Mandy
@@SoupedUpRecipes Can i used any type of oyster to make this sauce ?
yes, any type will work.
I love this! Thank you for all your effort to research and make this.
This was fascinating! Well done. Thank you.
Thanks a lot Mandy! It is amazing how much research you did and the information you were able to obtain about the making of commercial oyster sauce. Then you must have spent a lot of time creating your own and superior recipe. You really impress me, and I always wondered what goes into oyster sauce. Based on your earlier recommendation, I already use the Lee Kum Kee Premium Oyster Sauce that lists oyster extractives as the first ingredient. When I have time, I will use your recipe to make my own oyster sauce and look forward to comparing it to the other one.
Mandy, totally awesome! I am going to try this! Thanks so much for all the effort you put into the research!
SHE IS A JOY TO WATCH AND SO MUCH INFORMATION I ENJOY HER COOKING RECIPECE
Yes! More homemade sauces!! We need them all!!!
You haven't been on my recommended page in a while. Glad to see Souped Up Recipes back :)
You deserve to be paid for this! Thankyou ❤️
This was so good. Very well researched and the instructions were great
I love listening to your videos. Something about the way you speak that makes all this more interesting for me. Thank you for the time and effort you put into these great videos.
I absolutely love this video!!! I would love to learn how to make all sauces including doubanjiang, multiple soy sauces, hoisin… I will make every single one of them at home. Also hoping to see more full meal and full holiday meal videos as well. Thank you so much for the amazing work you do! I’ve learned more from you than I can express!
Thank you. You are my favorite Chinese Master Chef. I have learned a lot watching your videos.
Great, great clip! Yes, please make homemade versions of the sauces you mentioned and any others you happen to think about. I think your viewers would be interested in your knowledge and efforts!
You are quite the food scientist! Kudos for all the hard work. Very interesting, even though I probably won't do it myself!
Yes please more sauce recipes. And please write a cookbook. Sauces would make a great chapter.
So clear instruction. This is one of my favorite video. Your research is impeccable. Love, love this. 👏👏👏
Amazing research and development of the recipe. I am very impressed.
This video was such a pleasure to watch!
This process is amazing thank you

Fantastic. More of this please!
Mandy you are the bomb! I would’ve never ever thought to make oyster sauce from scratch. You have open our eyes to the possibilities. Love all your videos and try to replicate them at home. Everything comes out delicious. Thank you for all your hard work and expanding our culinary experiences. xoxoxo
I am so amazed you have made the oyster sauce in your own kitchen!
And thank you so much you shared it with us!
Hope you can also show us how to made Hoi Sin Sauce.😊
Thanks for sharing the recipe, I love to try them out from scratch!!👏👏😊
This was a great video! I like how you explained the ratio of oysters to caramelized sugar solution.
Omg! I love you so much! I am totally going to make this!
Very cool and informative! I’m always impressed how the store-bought oyster sauce, although quite thick in consistency, pours from that narrow glass bottle, even when chilled. Videos for homemade Hoisin, Tamari or dark soy sauce would be interesting.
I love the enthusiasm you showed in this video! This was very informative and also fun to watch! For some time I've been wondering of how they make this marvelous ingredient ... now I know, thank you! ... maybe I'll try it one day :)
Thanks for this recipe
Definitely need to make this. Thank you, Mindy.
Thank you so much for the recipe, I always wanted to try this sauce , but I couldn’t , but know with all your efforts I can and will, thank you again.
