Essential Sauces for Taiwanese Cooking
If you love Taiwanese cooking, sauces are where the magic happens. The right Taiwanese sauces bring bold, layered flavours to every dish, from braises to hotpots. Keep a few of these essentials in your cupboard and your cooking will instantly feel more authentic.
Soy Paste (油膏)
Thicker than standard soy sauce with a touch of sweetness. Perfect for braised dishes like lu rou fan. Works well as a glaze or dipping sauce too.
Sha Cha Sauce (沙茶醬)
A savoury Taiwanese BBQ sauce made with dried seafood, garlic and shallots. Ideal for hotpots, marinades or stir-fries. We offer both classic and vegetarian versions.
Fermented Bean Curd (豆腐乳)
Rich cubes of fermented tofu. Some are spicy, some mellow, some infused with sesame oil or rice wine. Great with steamed greens or stirred into congee.
Black Vinegar (烏醋)
Adds a smooth tang to noodles and dumplings. Our range includes thicker, vegetarian options for a bolder flavour.
Rice Wine and Mirin
These balance and add aroma to stir-fries and braises. Perfect for dishes like three cup chicken or oyster vermicelli.
Chilli Sauces and Bean Pastes
From miso-based hot sauces to fermented chilli-bean blends, these pack heat and umami into noodles, dipping sauces and more.
No matter the dish, the right Taiwanese sauce will bring it to life.
How to Choose the Right Sauce for Your Dish
Not sure where to start? Here’s a quick guide based on your cooking:
- Lu Rou Fan (Braised Pork Rice): Soy paste, thick soy sauce and a splash of rice wine give depth and fragrance.
- Three Cup Chicken: Combine soy sauce, sesame oil and rice wine. Cook until it clings to the chicken.
- Dumplings: Try our garlic or spicy dumpling sauces for instant flavour.
- Hot Pot or Shabu-Shabu: Mix Sha Cha Sauce, fermented bean curd and sesame oil for a tasty dip.
Each Taiwanese sauce has its own character. Some sweet, some savoury, some fiery. Experiment to find what works for you.
