Find black bean sauce far too salty, so tempted to try yellow bean. Is it anything like it? Salty? Sweet? HELP

It's nothing like black bean sauce at all. Sweeter I suppose, but a completely different taste. It's used as an ingredient in Char Sui sauce...0

But is it as salty, talking about from the ta, not ms I know but hey.0

Most Oriental/Chinese foods are high in salt- its a big part of the taste. OP have you tried reduced sodium soy-sauce and then using your own spices from cookery books?0

I'm not after making my own, and I know TA's are "salty" but Black Bean is especially so, which is why I was asking if Yellow Bean is as much. I know people are trying to help with making alternative suggestions but just wanted the basic answer to the question. No offence intended.0
