The story behind it
Where Nam Jim Gai comes from
For Gai Yang, Thai grilled chicken, this sauce is such an integral part that it is named after it. At grill stalls, it sits in bottles next to the charcoal.
In the West, it has become known as "sweet chili"—usually much sweeter than how it is prepared in Thailand.
