sweet chili sauce
Tangy glazing dip
Sweet chili sauce is a condiment combining sugar, chili peppers, vinegar, and garlic into a thick, glossy sauce that balances sweetness with mild heat.
It originated in Thai cuisine but has become a global dipping sauce for spring rolls, chicken wings, and fried foods: The sweet chili sauce cut through the richness of the fried shrimp.
