To the person who started this posting: You have recieved some false info. If Argia B. Collins made mumbo sauce from Chicago. Why is it that only Korean carry out have it in DC area???? Do you see a connection between the two?<BR/><BR/>And to the person who wrote:<BR/>**WHAT IS SAD IS THAT BLACK PEOPLE DON'T QUESTION WHAT MUMBO SAUCE IS REALLY.

YET EVERYONE TELLS ME THEY DON'T KNOW AND SOME GET OFFENDED WHEN I ASK. SEEMS STRANGE TO ME AND I STAY AWAY FROM IT BECAUSE IT HAS TO BE SOMETHING BAD IF THEY CAN'T TELL US WHAT IT IS. BLACK PEOPLE SHOULD THINK. THIS STUFF COULD BE KILLING US BUT WE ARE TOO STUPID TO DEMAND THE CARRY-OUT PEOPLE TO TELL US WHAT IS IN IT.

She used to work at Jimmy's crab house in Landover, MD off Landover rd. She passed it along to the korean community but never revealed the REAL RECIPE (just so her store got the best shit!)But don't take my word for it. I live in the metropolitan area so meet me up and try my moms mumbo sauce and you tell how you like it. I have no interest in revealing the real recipe so don't but wouldn't have a problem selling you the mumbo sauce. <BR/><BR/>Mumbo.Sauce@yahoo.comAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11923960.post-21968829489313396602007-09-23T15:40:00.000-04:002007-09-23T15:40:00.000-04:00That sounds about right and I think I tasted some ...That sounds about right and I think I tasted some nutmeg. :)Sorry...that's from Dave.

I think I'll take a shot at making it myself. It's one of those things where I'll know it when I taste it. I used to get my wings and mumbo sauce from a little carryout in NW DC right off Rhode Island Avenue. This was around in the late sixties, early seventies and the place was Black owned and operated so I'm guessing that it would have been made from ingredients common to Black folk back then--no Dijon mustard, no soy sauce, no red wine reduction LOL.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11923960.post-1162019430361674932006-10-28T03:10:00.000-04:002006-10-28T03:10:00.000-04:00I've tried mumbo sauce before.
