¿Qué es Condiment?
A condiment is a prepared food item, such as a sauce, spice, or preparation, added to food after cooking (or at the table) to enhance its flavor. Condiments typically complement the main dish rather than being a primary ingredient themselves, providing a contrasting or harmonizing taste.
"The magic of a good condiment lies in its ability to transform a simple dish into an exciting culinary experience, often with just a small addition."
