Alton Brown, in an episode of Iron Chef America, described Sambal as a Chinese hot sauce. Great read. Thanks.
"it reduces food to a set of dispassionate instructions to be followed" - er... that EXACTLY what readers of recipes/ cooks want - not an in-depth exploration of a recipe's or ingredient's cultural history!
