Yeah, some people even consider ketchup, mayonnaise, and mustard sauces.
Language wielded irresponsibly can be a mysterious and terrible thing.
My son uses ketchup as if it were a sauce ...

Obviously it’s a sauce. I looked up the definition to try and figure out why they would say it isn’t, and I still don’t see it.
“a liquid or semisolid food mixture used especially as a topping or ingredient for adding to or enhancing the flavor of a dish”

Came here to mention tzatziki. With some cucumber sticks on a hot summer day? Absolutely glorious
I apologize for my ignorance. What the hell is that?
Yogurt, cucumber, dill, lemon, garlic. Really nice with grilled meats or roasted veggies
You're one of today's lucky 10,000!
Tzatziki is a creamy, tangy Greek yogurt-based sauce or dip made with shredded cucumber, garlic, olive oil, and fresh herbs like dill or mint, often served as a meze (appetizer) with pita bread and vegetables, or as a topping for gyros, souvlaki, and grilled meats or fish. It's known for being cool, refreshing, and versatile, with a simple preparation that involves mixing strained yogurt with grated, squeezed cucumber, minced garlic, herbs, and a splash of lemon juice or vinegar.
Here's a recipe: https://www.themediterraneandish.com/wprm_print/tzatziki-sauce-recipe
Every day I am part of the lucky 10,000 is a great day. Thank you for the recipe!
Miracle Whip:
Legit top tier condiment that has supplanted mayonnaise and like half of the us doesnt even know it.

Bechamel is kinda mid without something else going on
Pretty banger IMO. Do you include salt, pepper and nutmeg when you make it ?

Also the milk sauce for your cereal.
One of these things are not like the others.
Yeah, most wouldn't consider sour cream a sauce 😉
And looking closer ranch is actually a dressing, not a sauce.
This can’t be a coincidence
Mayonnaise
Is the best one ever
By itself? Absolutely disgusting.
As the base for a thousand other sauces and condiments? Absolutely vital.

I dunno. I find sourcream and ranch overrated.
I'm more partial to eastern sauces.
I find sourcream and ranch overrated
What nut gives white sauce? Can't imagine.
Alfredo's nut sauce.
Our local BBQ joint has an alabama white sauce that is like crack. I can't get enough of it
