Looking to add extra zing to your meals? Add Lee Kum Kee‘s XO Sauce to your pantry. An all-purpose gourmet condiment with a complex aroma, this flavour bomb is great for enhancing dishes like stir-fried vegetables, meat, and seafood as well as steamed fish and noodles. Or spoon it over dim sum, grilled meats, fried snacks and more.
Generous bits of Japanese dried scallops and quality dried shrimp are combined with chilli peppers and fragrant spices like Shandong garlic for an amalgamation of flavours, including the deep umami notes of dried seafood. Not a fan of spicy tongue-numbing sauces? You’ll like this one, with just a hint of heat to kick things up a notch — it’s great for the kids, too!
Even better: it’s free of added preservatives and colouring.
$23 for 220g. Lee Kum Kee XO Sauce is available at major supermarkets, and online stores.
