Drip sauce

Dipping sauces are the heart of the Asian table, where sharing and dipping are done together. A well-chosen dip enhances the flavor of meat, fish, vegetables, and deep-fried dishes. Here, we've gathered the sauces that turn a meal into a social experience with plenty of flavor. Serve several varieties and let your guests find their favorite.

A classic Asian dipping sauce balances sweet, sour, salty, and spicy all in one. Sweet chili sauce is the indispensable companion for spring rolls, fish cakes, and deep-fried chicken, while a spicy fish- or lime-based dip suits grilled meat and papaya salad. For Thai hotpot and suki, a piquant dip with chili, garlic, and cilantro is used, and a light soy-based sauce complements dumplings and dim sum.

Feel free to mix your own dip with lime juice, fish sauce, freshly chopped chili, and a little sugar for a fresh taste. Bottled sauces should be stored in a cool place, and opened products keep best in the refrigerator. Serve several small bowls so each dish gets its own perfect dip.
