Thanks to a friend of ours - Jason, we have a new addiction. It's a common item often served with red rice in Guam and it's called Finadene Sauce. Unfortunately he tantalizes us with this every time we get together, and I can never get enough and always crave more. He plans on opening a restaurant soon, which we will frequent often, because his food and sauce are AMAZING, but until that time I needed to find a way to satiate my craving. Well last weekend, all I wanted was this damn sauce…

Finadene sauce is a chamorro, or guamanian condiment that is spice, tangy and out of this world. If you're into trying new things and love heat, this is a must try!

Fina’denne’ (commonly misspelled finadene or fina’dene) is a spicy sauce used as a condiment.

This is a doctored-up soy sauce recipe that came from Guam. Over there, this is always by the red rice and barbequed ribs and chicken. It really adds a nice flavor to the rice! Try it next time you serve plain or fried rice! YUM!

Spicy pepper sauce used for dipping lumpia or egg rolls, or for dipping and drizzling over almost everything if you are a Pacific Islander.

Finadene is an all-purpose pepper sauce that can be used as a marinade or poured over rice or cooked meat. You can make it as hot or mild as you like.

Spicy sauce to accompany seafood, meat or veggies of all kinds! Drizzle it on or place a few spoons full in individual dipping bowls for your guests. Latinos and Islanders from all over love this sauce.

I've mentioned before that my father is from Guam (Chamorro) and rice was a staple at our dinner table just as potatoes are for most. Along with it, my mother made various hot sauces to put on the rice for added flavor. One of them is finadene (fin-ah-den-ee). It's spicy, a little salty, tart and is delicious on white rice. I'd been craving it lately so I thought I'd make some and share the recipe with you. I guarantee you that after you make this sauce you will NEVER eat plain white rice…
