Here's the definition from DI:

"Condiment, often used to bring out the flavor in gagh or racht."

IIRC it first appeared in DS9 "Soldiers of the Empire":  On the IKV Rotarran, Ch'Targ poured almost an entire bottle of grapok sauce onto Crewman Alexander's bregit lung, saying that it "brings out the flavor."
