Dumpling Daughter is a woman-owned small biz, btw! All their sauces are made right in their restaurant HQ in Boston.
BuzzFeed Shopping editor Maitland Quitmeyer can’t get enough: “I….can’t stop eating this sauce. It was an impulse buy when browsing at Stew Leonards (IYKYK), and it’s turned out to be one of my favorite spontaneous grocery cart additions. I’ve since seen it on TikTok, and for good reason — the sauce is sweet and thick (kind of like an eel sauce viscosity) with just the right hint of spice for me. If you love spice, you’d probably need to add some chili oil, which would also be delish. I put it on a lot of things (it would be good on cardboard, frankly), but one of my favorites is to slice up a cucumber — and half an avocado if I have it — drizzle on this sauce and add some toasted sesame seeds. The perfect side dish or snack! I just bought the 16-ounce size bottle, so I don’t need to worry about running out as quickly. Bonus: the larger size bottle also has a twist cap instead of a pop-off cap (the pop-off is kind of annoying and gets a little messy and makes the sauce harder to shake before drizzling).
Promising reviews: “Seriously, don’t read it. Stop. Cease. Desist! Read no further. You’re still here? Very well. You’re wasting valuable time you could be using to order this sauce. I’ve ordered several bottles and it’s good enough to eat over rice with nothing else added. Superb! Go buy yourself a few bottles. Right now. Go!” —NumeralXVI
“This sauce is the best dumpling sauce/addition I’ve ever had! I feel like all I do is buy products to try and they get used once for the ‘try’ phase and get tossed or are lost to the fridge to grow science projects. This one I’ve had for about a week, and it’s almost gone!! We’ve stocked our freezer with pork & veggie mini wontons/dumplings so that we can use this sauce. The family is [OBSESSED}!!! ♥♥♥” —JenSie
Get it from Amazon for $14.99 (also available in a smaller size and in ginger soy, sichuan sesame soy, or a pack of all three!).
