Bright red, pourable sauce made from chili peppers, garlic, sugar, salt, and vinegar. It delivers medium heat with a garlicky aroma, a tangy-slightly sweet balance, and a viscosity that clings well for glazing and dipping. Common uses include dipping, spiking marinades, finishing noodle dishes, and whisking into dressings.

Modern chili sauces evolved across Southeast Asia, notably in Thai and Vietnamese cuisines, and spread globally through industrial bottling and diaspora cooking. Regional variations range from smooth hot chili sauces to sweeter, thicker styles.
