I used to always ask for and then buy 6 jars for take home of 5 Spice Hot Garlic Sauce? After the tragic fire I saw your dad once or twice a week for years; he came to the pharmacy I worked at. I always meant to ask him for the recipe; but told myself, I’d get it next time then suddenly there wasn’t a next time. Thank you for your generosity with these recipes. Jeff W
