It’s time to get saucy! March is National Sauce Month and there are so many ways to celebrate! The Merriam-Webster dictionary defines sauce as a condiment or relish for food, something that adds zest or flavoring, or a stewed fruit eaten with other food or as a dessert. Which means every meal, every snack, and every dessert can all be sauced up and taken to the next level.
Here in the States, we are pretty obsessed with our sauces. It is reported that the average American consumes around 71 pounds of ketchup a year. Soy sauce and salsa round out the top three spots and that’s just the tip of the iceberg. The sauce game gets turned up to 10 when you start thinking of all the sweet sauces and syrups we douse our desserts in.
An array of sauces can add options and variety to any basic dish. Take chicken for example. A basic chicken breast can be transformed to appease just about any cuisine craving imaginable. Shred it up and add salsa for fajitas. Slow cook it with your favorite barbeque sauce and you have a southern staple. Toss in some noodles and pasta sauce, stir fry it up with some soy sauce, the possibilities are almost limitless and it’s all thanks to sauce.
