sauce
Poured flavor enhancer
Sauce is a liquid or semi-liquid accompaniment to food, adding flavor or moisture: tomato sauce, hot sauce, cheese sauce.
The word extends to impudent or cheeky behavior: Don't give me any sauce.
In slang, sauce means alcohol: He's been on the sauce again.
To sauce something is to add sauce to it, or informally, to speak impudently to someone.
