I haven't ever bought plum jam but I have eaten Peking duck with plum sauce
and buns - it's great. Plum jam in a sauce for Chinese duck would be very
appropriate. Cranberry sauce and mayo sounds interesting. I'll try it when I
get the chance. Mele Kalikimaka!

I added port too. Not sure why but I had seen something about using port
and he likes it

I wanted to learn about some other dipping sauces because I had seen posters
here talking about them.

I think I will try the plum jam. Do you think mayo and port would work with
that too?

Any more ideas would be very welcome)
