Sauces

Small-batch sauces from independent makers, mostly people who started with one recipe and a jar. Hot sauces, chili crisp, Korean and Japanese cooking sauces, sandwich mayos and pickle sauces, chosen because they do something a supermarket bottle does not.

Heat is not the same as flavour

The useful question about a hot sauce is not how hot it is but what it tastes of underneath. A vinegar-forward Louisiana style adds acidity and brightness. A fermented sauce adds funk and depth. A fruit-based habanero sauce brings sweetness alongside the heat. Chili crisp is a different object altogether, closer to a savoury condiment with texture than to a sauce, which is why it ends up on eggs and ice cream both.

Cooking sauce or finishing sauce

A cooking sauce is built to be heated, so it usually carries sugar and starch that need heat to behave, and it goes in the pan. A finishing sauce is built for the plate: raw aromatics, fresh acidity and delicate spice that heat would only cook off. Using one as the other is the most common way to waste a good jar.

Keeping them

Most sauces here need refrigerating after opening, and the label is the authority rather than habit. Anything emulsified, anything with fresh garlic or fresh chili, and anything low in vinegar goes in the fridge. Chili crisp keeps well because the oil protects it, but the crisp softens once moisture gets in, so use a dry spoon.
