A '''sauce''' is a liquid, cream, or semi-solid food served on or used in preparing other foods. Most sauces are not normally consumed by themselves; they add flavor, moisture, and visual appeal to a dish. Sauces need a liquid component, but some sauces (such as [[pesto]] or [[salsa]]) may contain more solid elements than liquid.
