"Islands' Dining Table" spent 4 years, traveling across Taiwan and its offshore islands, meeting over 100 elders, and documenting over 50 traditional recipes. This journey resulted in the book of the same name, "Islands' Dining Table," and the launch of 3 classic gift boxes of "Taiwanese Spirit Sauces." Through tangible action, we record our food culture, encompassing indigenous, Hakka, and mainland Chinese influences, celebrating diversity and fusion.

In 2022, we collaborated with elders. To ensure this "flavor" journey continues, behind every jar of nostalgic and delicious sauce lies the craftsmanship honed by time and our determination to pass down Taiwan's culinary heritage. More importantly, for every jar sold, 5% of the pricing is given back to the elders, fostering a harmonious economy between generations. This initiative elevates their self-worth while preserving culture.

Grandma Hui-Hui from Anping, Tainan x Tomato Preserved Cucumber Pork Sauce
Braised pork and preserved cucumber with pork are common, comforting dishes in Taiwan, often seasoned a bit salty to pair with rice.
Grandma Hui-Hui, who grew up in Tainan, pondered how to create a lighter, more refreshing dish for her children.
Sweet, sour, and juicy – that's the taste of tomato! Adding tomatoes to pork-fat-simmered preserved cucumber sauce not only maintains the aroma but also makes it more refreshing and less greasy.
This Tomato Preserved Cucumber Pork Sauce is perfect for all ages, whether mixed with rice, noodles, or drizzled over vegetables and tofu.

Grandma Wu from Miaoli Hakka x Devil's Chili Oil Sauce
Grandma Wu from Sanwan, Miaoli, was a kitchen assistant at banquets in her youth. She would often bring home leftover offal and creatively mix it with chili sauce, always clearing the dining table.
Grandma Wu's daughter, Ms. Hsueh-Ling, improved upon the chili sauce from her childhood memories, allowing this flavor to be passed down, preserving Grandma Wu's banquet cooking skills and wisdom. Using bird's eye chilies as a base, blended with Grandma Wu's secret blend of small chilies, you first taste a unique fruity pepper aroma before the devilish spiciness erupts. It's simmered and oil-sealed with pure rice wine and black sesame oil. Unlike the salty greasiness of common store-bought chili oils, its aroma and flavor are uniquely distinct, guaranteeing a high return rate for repeat enjoyment. It's perfect as a dipping sauce or for stir-frying!

Grandpa Jin-Fu from Sanhe Night Market x Candied Jujube Sweet and Sour Sauce
Grandpa Jin-Fu, the third eldest, followed his brothers in preparing banquets from a young age. Honey-glazed spareribs were a must-have dish at every banquet, offering a sweet and sour, appetite-stimulating start. After more than a decade of experience in hosting, Grandpa Jin-Fu gradually refined the honey-glazed sparerib recipe, incorporating black dates. During festivals, he would make these treats for children and neighbors.
Now retired, Grandpa Jin-Fu truly wishes to pass down the black date honey sauce, making banquet-style dishes a regular part of home dining: We suggest mixing a little olive oil to create a salad dressing, or using it as a dipping sauce for barbecues. Feel free to explore new ways to enjoy it!
