Sweet-and-Sour is a term used to describe a dish whose taste contains elements of both a sweet taste and a sour taste. Usually the balancing is done with an added sauce. The sweet can come from something such as sugar, syrup or fruit.
The sweet and sour sauce is a generic term that encompasses many sauces, mainly including various flavours, fruits, vegetables and exciting additives that give sauces a mix of sweet and sour tastes. The Chinese made the sauce, considering how one can benefit from flavouring substances such as sauces.
