For a milder sauce, reduce the amount of red pepper flakes. For a spicier sauce, use a pinch of cayenne pepper. If you don't have a mortar and pestle, you can finely mince the garlic and mix it with the salt. This sauce is excellent with egg rolls, spring rolls, dumplings, or grilled chicken and shrimp.
