To use, simply open the container and pour. If the sauce has solidified slightly, you can gently warm it. Place the unopened container in warm water for a few minutes, or microwave it in a microwave-safe dish on low power, stirring occasionally, until it reaches your desired consistency. Avoid overheating, as this can alter the flavor and texture. It can be used as a topping, a filling, or an ingredient in various recipes.
