What are you trying to make? What is your idea with the black bean sauce?

I like the miso/soy idea, but would consider reducing the soy first so you get sufficient bang for your buck without adding too much liquid.

Thanks you guys for your help - it came out great! I started with beans (duh :-) and then did the old add / taste / add method - zest from an orange, juice from half of it, dash of tamari, dash of fish sauce, crushed red pepper, a dab of dark miso paste, minced garlic, fresh minced ginger, a splash of vinegar. I will never have to buy it again!
