Chili-Garlic Sauce

Once opened, it's best to refrigerate chili-garlic sauce to maintain its quality and prevent spoilage. Look for specific storage instructions on the product packaging.

Stir well before using, as ingredients can separate over time.

Start with a small amount and add more to taste, as the heat level can vary.

Use it as a dipping sauce, marinade, or as a flavor enhancer in stir-fries, soups, and noodle dishes.

Stir-fries

Noodle dishes (ramen, pad thai)

Soups and stews

Marinades for chicken, pork, or tofu

Dipping sauce for dumplings, spring rolls, or fried foods

Eggs (scrambled, fried)

Adding too much at once without tasting, which can overpower other flavors or make the dish too spicy.

Not checking the expiration date or storage recommendations, which can lead to a loss of flavor or spoilage.
