What's the name of the sauce that comes with steamed wontons?

Question

It looks like soy sauce, but tastes different (a bit sweeter).

Also, how do I make it?

Answer 1

Tempera sauce (probably) and yes you can buy it about anywhere.

1/4 c. sherry or sake

1/4 c. soy sauce

1 teaspoon sugar

Just heat in a pan to dissolve the sugar and serve...

Answer 2

sounds like it may be tempura sauce, it's a bit lighter in color than dark soy sauce but it does have a sweeter taste.
