This dipping sauce is the perfect balance of flavors. It's sweet, sour, and spicy all at the same time. I love it!

This sauce is a bit too fishy for my taste. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

I'm not a fan of cilantro, so I omitted it from the recipe. The sauce was still delicious.

This sauce is delicious, but it's a bit too thick for my liking. I would thin it out with a little bit of water.

I found this sauce to be a bit bland. It needed more lime juice and chili pepper.
