Meatless Movement recently spoke with the team behind Veganxoxo, a food manufacturer in Hong Kong, which produces the vegan version of the XO sauce. Most XO sauces in the market are made from ingredients of seafood sources. This guilt-free version features the same cast of spices and mushrooms to create the pleasant savory taste that traditional XO sauce is known for.

Veganxoxo told Meatless Movement that their most encouraging episode is a sharing from a returning customer that she was amazed how good plant based XO sauce could be, and has since been willing to explore goodness of vegetables and reduce consumption of meat!

Please tell us more about yourself

Veganxoxo = we love veganism!

Veganxoxo is a local sauce maker featuring our artisan Porcini & Chanterelle Vegan XO Sauce, which puts together goodness of five kinds of mushrooms, garlic, shallot and chilli, giving any dishes an aromatic Asian kick!

XO sauce is an iconic condiment with an umami flavour from Hong Kong. We believe fellow vegans should also enjoy this flavour-bomb condiment with unique texture and aroma, that’s why we created our artisan vegan XO sauce and give mushrooms a shout out!

Yes plant-based meat tastes good sometimes but we LOVE whole food even more! Our vegan xo sauce is also preservatives and msg free, featuring only goodness of natural ingredients. 

Simple ingredients, mouthful of goodness!

Chanterelle mushroom is one of the most loved mushrooms in the culinary world. This trumpet-shaped beauty has a well balanced flavour of earthiness and fruitiness, and an incredible nutrition value.

Porcini mushroom, available in both fresh and dried, is a nutritious fungus with a deep woodsy-nutty flavour that gives a unique aroma to our vegan xo sauce.

Plant-based diet has been adopted by more and more individuals with concern about animal rights. Although our xo sauce was originally created for fellow vegans, much to our surprise over 80% of our customers are not vegetarian or vegan at all! This not only surprised us but also empowered us to spread the idea of veganism!

Best to pair with any kind of noodles, fried rice, dumpling, hotpot, toast, wine, and on its own!

XO sauce has been playing an important role in our local cuisine: the Chinese New Year turnip cake, the stir fried rice roll when you go Yum Cha (飲茶) with parents, the Hong Kong style instant noodle stir fry (公仔麵) from Cha Chaan Teng (茶餐廳), you name it! It means something to us to veganise this taste of home.

Somen noodles, generous spoon of vegan xo sauce, splash of soy sauce, and you’re all set. It’s just so versatile! Basic ways are to enjoy it with noodles, turnip cake, fried rice or dumplings. But don’t limit yourself with that! Cook it with pasta, serve it on a toast, or enjoy it on its own with your favourite sake or wine.
