“Experiencing the food of the world is one of the great joys of travel. These days, we might not be able to jump on a plane due to COVID restrictions, but we can travel at home in our kitchens. This chili sauce packs tremendous flavor in a small amount. It has an outstanding balance of chili spice, garlic, and an earthy cheese-like character that serves as a base for sweet, tart, or green additions. The chili’s warm heat backs up its flavor with a medium kick that lingers without burning.”
“Last spring, the nation’s top food journalists were atwitter about the great chili crisp craze, dubbing it the condiment of the pandemic. They hailed the oil-slicked, thick, crunchy sauce as the go-to for every home chef in lockdown, noting new iterations from stars such as Momofuku’s David Chang and a product demand rate rivalling that of N95s. Alas, they missed a hidden crown jewel in this treasure chest, Me’s Way, made by Chau Tonnu, a first-generation Vietnamese American immigrant in Normandy Park. Most palates can’t pinpoint why her mildly heat-packaging, garlic-sugary version is spectacularly more flavorful than the top-seller, but we can’t resist telling you that it’s anchovy.”

Made with chilis, garlic, and anchovies (there’s also a vegetarian version available) this sauce is the perfect mix of spicy, tangy, and sweet. Pair it with your choice of barbecued meat or grilled veggies for a unique taste that’s perfect for the summer.”
“This handmade Vietnamese chili sauce, made in the US, tilts your heat in an entirely new direction. Based on anchovies, dried red chili pepper and garlic, Me’s Way is in more for cooking with than shaking on to your eggs. There is also a vegan version with the same umami. I used this as a dressing for an Asian slaw, with sesame oil, honey, and lime. It would probably also be great as a dipping sauce for dumplings, maybe mixed with soy sauce and sesame oil to counteract its punch.”
“I love a good chili sauce and Me’s Way is delicious! It has lots of spice and lots of flavor. We all know how important flavor is to a good stir fry! This hand crafted, all-natural chili sauce is inspired by the creator’s Vietnamese roots. And I’m super impressed with it! It has the spicy kick I expect out of a good chili sauce, and it also has a lot of extra flavors (must be their super-secret seasonings that they add!) that I’ve not had in a chili sauce before. Basically, it’s amazing and makes all my meals with chili sauce taste amazing!”
