Asian Sauces and Condiments to Stock Your Pantry
The right bottle on the shelf is the difference between a fine dinner and a great one. Our Asian sauces and condiments aisle is built around the workhorses serious home cooks rely on - soy sauces, gochujang, chili crisp, fish sauce, oyster sauce, ponzu, sesame oils and more - alongside specialty finds worth keeping in the rotation.
What Are the Essential Asian Sauces for Home Cooks?
If you're starting a pantry from scratch, build around these staples:
- Soy sauce (light for seasoning, dark for color and depth)
- Toasted sesame oil - a few drops finish almost any stir-fry
- Rice vinegar for dressings, dipping sauces and quick pickles
- Gochujang (Korean fermented chili paste) for soups, marinades and bibimbap
- Chili crisp for spooning over eggs, noodles and dumplings
- Fish sauce and oyster sauce for umami in Thai, Vietnamese and Cantonese dishes
What Is Gochujang and How Do You Cook With It?
Gochujang is a thick, fermented Korean chili paste with deep red color, savory aroma and rounded heat. Stir it into stews, glaze grilled meats, swirl it into mayo for sandwiches or use it as the backbone of bibimbap and tteokbokki. A small spoonful adds layers of umami without overwhelming a dish.
What's the Difference Between Light and Dark Soy Sauce?
Light soy sauce is thinner, saltier and used most often for seasoning and dipping. Dark soy sauce is thicker, slightly sweeter and aged longer, lending color and depth to braises and stir-fries. Many recipes use them together for balance.
Quick Ways to Put These Bottles to Work
- Whisk soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil and a pinch of sugar for an instant noodle dressing.
- Spoon chili crisp over fried eggs, dumplings or instant ramen.
- Glaze chicken or salmon with gochujang, soy and a drizzle of honey before broiling.
