Chili sauce is a
condiment prepared with
chili peppers and red
tomato as primary ingredients. Chili sauce may be
hot,
sweet or a combination thereof, and may differ from
hot sauce in that many sweet or mild varieties exist, which is typically lacking in hot sauces. Several varieties of chili sauce include
sugar in their preparation, such as sweet chili sauce and Thai sweet chili sauce, which adds sweetness to their flavor profile. Chili sauce may have a thicker texture and viscosity when compared to that of hot sauces.
