You can buy this sauce bottled (Mae Ploy is probably the most popular and well-known version), but why not try making it from scratch? It’s easy, plus you can adjust the sweetness and the spice completely—just use this recipe as a guideline. And when you’re finished, make sure you’ve got your egg rolls, crab rangoons, and fried chicken lined up for a dip.
