Szechwan sauce?

Question

I dont really know how to spell it but does anyone know what that is???

Answer 1

Schezuan (or Sichuan) sauce is a generic spicy sauce supposedly from the Schezuan province in China.  I think this is most likely an "American" sauce that's flavored with soy sauce, garlic, dried red chilies, oyster sauce....
