Salsa de pato, lista para servir
Duck sauce — also called plum sauce — is a sweet, thick Chinese-American dipping condiment made from plums, apricots, sugar, vinegar, and ginger. At 1.116 g/ml, its density is driven by the high sugar and dissolved fruit solids content. A tablespoon weighs approximately 16.5 g; a cup weighs approximately 264 g. Consistency ranges from a thick jam to a pourable glaze depending on the brand. Used as a dipping sauce for egg rolls, wontons, and fried appetizers, and as a glaze for roasted duck and pork.

La medida por volumen varía porque asentado, compactación y textura cambian la cantidad real dentro de la misma cuchara o taza. Si los gramos parecen raros, suele ser un efecto físico y no un error. Repite el mismo método y confirma con peso.

FAQ
- Is duck sauce the same as plum sauce, and do they have the same density?
- Duck sauce and plum sauce are closely related products — both are sweet, fruit-based dipping condiments common in Chinese-American restaurants. They have similar density ranges (approximately 1.10–1.15 g/ml) because their ingredients are similar. The USDA value (1.116 g/ml) covers the typical ready-to-serve formulation. Branded products vary slightly.
- How does duck sauce density compare to hoisin sauce?
- Duck sauce (1.116 g/ml, ~264 g/cup) is slightly denser than hoisin sauce (1.082 g/ml, ~256 g/cup), despite hoisin being noticeably thicker in texture. Density is not always correlated with viscosity — hoisin's thick paste structure traps more air, while duck sauce's smooth, jam-like consistency fills measuring vessels more uniformly.
