General Tso Vegetarian Sauce and Marinade, 64 fl oz Jug

General Tso's chicken is probably at the top of my list of favorite foods. I wanted to learn how to make it myself without having to shell out $10-$14 for "my fix". My family did a taste test with this product and the Iron Kitchen brand General Tso's sauce. I cooked - head to head comparison. Same night, same batch of wok-fried chicken chunks. Final blend cooked ten minutes apart from each other. Both batches of General Tso's (one batch with Minor's and one batch with Iron Kitchen) were very, very good. Almost identical. I could easily eat a pound of either. But the Iron Kitchen Brand General Tso's was unanimously better. Again, it wasn't much of a difference, but the Iron Kitchen was a tad sweeter and a tad more spicy than Minor's. Neither were overly spicy, about medium. I personally am not a fan of really spicy food, and I can comfortably say that Minor's was not too spicy for me - just right. One important point is that the Minor's Brand Sauce is significantly cheaper than Iron Kitchen. To sum up, yes I would buy Minor's again. It is very, very tasty and cost-effective. True, it did not win the bake-off against Iron Kitchen, but it didn't lose by much. A packet of Splenda and few more chili flakes would have probably made it a tie. Update: I made another batch today using the Minor's General Tso's sauce. Just wanted to double down that this sauce is great! Not too spicy, not too sweet. Just right.

Minor’s General Tso’s Sauce is a true game-changer in the kitchen. The flavor is bold, slightly sweet, and perfectly balanced with just the right amount of heat—exactly what you’d expect from a restaurant-quality dish. It’s ready to use straight from the bottle, which makes cooking quick and effortless. The large 83.2 oz size is fantastic for families or anyone who loves to cook in batches. I’ve used it for chicken, stir-fry, and even as a dipping sauce, and it consistently delivers delicious results. The texture is smooth, it coats evenly, and it elevates simple meals into something special. If you want authentic General Tso’s flavor without the hassle of making sauce from scratch, this is the perfect choice.

Highly recommended. Hands down the best tasting, guality GT sauce I’ve found. Pure ingredients, no preservatives, no chemicals, low sodium and genuine flavor. Use it as a glaze, a dipping sauce or a stirfry. Wonderfully compliments pork, salmon, chicken and veggies.

My husband practically drinks this stuff. He puts it in so many stir fry dishes. It's a small fortune at the grocery stores. This is better value and great taste.

Very yummy sauce with amount of heat that will not be too hot for anyone. Can always add more heat if needed!

Delicious, mix with cooked chicken and broccoli, put over rice.

Sauce: 5 stars, Shipping: 1 star... I like this sauce - although you should note that straight, it has a powerful and not especially pleasant oder. However, one cup mixed with stir fry and chicken is very good, spicy without being excessively hot. The biggest problem is in shipping. This plastic container for FIVE POUNDS of sauce is not at all like rugged milk jug plastic, instead it is a hard, 1/16" thin, brittle plastic that is VERY susceptible to shipping damage. Three out of six bottles that I have ordered have arrived with small nickel-sized impact fractures, usually on the bottom perimeter where there is a molded-in curvature. Either Minor's needs to use more robust bottles or Amazon needs to realize that these heavy bottles REQUIRE extra shipping protection, not just the standard overlay of inflated pouches. I'm going to try to find it in a smaller bottle that may survive shipping better...

We love this General Tso Sauce! Our second time buying it. Highly recommend it! We just fry up 1" bite size pieces of chicken and then add the sauce and let it simmer for a bit and serve with rice. You can add more red pepper flakes if you want it more spicy. Packaged really well so there was no leakage.
