MILD ALL PURPOSE SAUCE MANG TOMAS 550 g is a legendary Filipino sauce that has earned the title "All Purpose" due to its versatility in the kitchen. It is a flagship product that is synonymous with traditional flavour in the Philippines, and its recipe is based on simple but carefully selected ingredients. Mang Tomas All Purpose Sauce is primarily the iconic accompaniment to Lechón, the national dish of the Philippines (roast pig). The thick, sweet, and slightly spicy sauce is essential to complement the crispy skin and juicy meat. However, its use is much broader. It works great as a dip for grilled meats, seafood, lumpia (Filipino spring rolls), and even as an original addition to fries or nuggets, providing an interesting alternative to ketchup. The unique flavour profile of the sauce is the result of a complex blend: Sweetness: Provided by sugar, which balances the other flavours. Spiciness: Derived from chili and black pepper, although it is subtle in the mild version. Acidity: Achieved through vinegar, which adds a characteristic crispness. Consistency: Thick and creamy, due to the combination of wheat flour and modified corn starch. The sauce has a subtle brown colour and a velvety texture that perfectly coats dishes. The composition also includes aromatic ingredients such as garlic and onion, which deepen the umami flavour. This product contains a low amount of fat (1 g per 100 g) and is low in calories, which is an additional advantage. Mang Tomas is a brand deeply rooted in Filipino tradition. History says that the sauce's name comes from a legendary Lechón vendor, which only emphasizes its authenticity. By choosing this sauce, you are reaching for a piece of Filipino culinary culture that will easily diversify your grilling, dinners, and snacks, giving them a unique, sweet-and-sour character.
