3 Finadene Sauces (Guam)
"Adapted from Barbecue USA. The soy and vinegar sauce is traditionally served with chicken and pork, the coconut sauce with seafood and poultry, and the lemon sauce with fish. Note on the yield: the coconut and lemon sauces each make 1 1/2 cups; the soy and vinegar makes 1 cup."

3 fast and easy sauces. I prepared all of them and we all enjoyed them.<br/>Fits with all kind of fish and see food. Thanks a lot I will keep the trio!<br/>Done for ZWT7 -
I had to wait a few days, because I tried both the Coconut Finadene and the Lemon Finadene sauces. I tried the Coconut one the other day on chicken and it was really good, because it added so much flavour, especially if the chicken breasts are barbequed! I used the Lemon one today on my beef goulash and that worked very well, as well. If you use the Lemon sauce on both the beef and the potatoes, it makes for a very nice combination!
