Duck sauce is a condiment with a sweet and sour flavor and a translucent orange appearance similar to a thin jelly. Offered at Chinese-American restaurants, it is used as a dip for deep-fried dishes such as duck, chicken, fish, spring rolls, egg rolls, or with rice or noodles. It is often provided in plastic packets along with soy sauce, mustard, hot sauce or red chili powder. In the New England area it is usually light brown and is commonly made from apples.
