My adoptions:
Use Gai Lan (stem and leaves) chopped bite sized for broccoli.

Reduce honey or omit and use Jufran in it's place (I want it
less sweet).  In a pinch, use a not very sweet ketchup with a
little Korean red pepper flake or Perivian Chile Lime to give
a nice heat (but not too much, both can pack a lot of heat so
I use pinches).

That sounds like a tasty, simple stir-fry (as long as the
broccoli isn't cooked soft).  I had to look up Jufran, I've
never head of it.  Banana catsup?

The story goes that banana ketchup was invented in the Philippines
during WWII because of a shortage of tomatoes. If you can turn
bananas into ketchup, why the heck wouldn't you? I have heard
that Jollibee spaghetti is made with banana ketchup. If you can
turn bananas into Filipino spaghetti sauce, that would be just
awesome.

And 'Murican catsup was invented after the civil war, presumably to
gig the remaining plantation owners after their cooks moved north.

Gosh, I love American ketchup. I get the cheapest stuff I can get and
use it as a sweetener. It's great. Watch out for that banana stuff.

LOL, have you tried the Jufran (or UTC brand).  I'd think it would suit
you!  But anyways, the tomato ketchup would do to replace some of the
honey if it's too sweet/sticky with all honey.  It is cut a bit by the
other things used in the sauce.

I have tried Jufran. It's an interesting product.

Look at the number of missing members in that thread, dang!

14 years ago, people actually talked about food. These days, RFC mostly
talks about how they don't care for people, places, things, and food.
Why is that? I have no idea at all.
