condiment
A condiment is a spice, sauce, or other food preparation that is added to food to impart a particular flavor, to enhance its flavor,〔Merriam-Webster: Definition of condiment〕 or in some cultures, to complement the dish. The term originally described pickled or preserved foods, but has shifted meaning over time.〔Smith, pp. 144–146〕
Many condiments are available packaged in single-serving packets, like mustard or ketchup, particularly when supplied with take-out or fast-food meals. They are usually applied by the diner, but are sometimes added prior to serving; for example, in a sandwich made with ketchup, mustard or mayonnaise. Some condiments are used during cooking to add flavor or texture to the food; barbecue sauce, teriyaki sauce, soy sauce, and marmite are examples.
The term ''condiment'' comes from the Latin ''condimentum'', meaning "spice, seasoning, sauce" and from the Latin ''condere'', meaning "preserve, pickle, season".〔Nealon〕
==Definition==
The exact definition of what is and is not a condiment varies. Some definitions include spice and herbs, including salt and pepper,〔Collins: Definition Condiment〕 using the term interchangeably with ''seasoning''.〔Farrell, p. 291〕 Others restrict the definition to including only "prepared food compound(), containing one or more spices", which are added to food after the cooking process, such as mustard, ketchup or mint sauce.〔
