The most common type of ''sawsawan'' is the ''toyomansi'' (or ''toyo't kalamansi''), which is a mixture of soy sauce, calamansi, and native Siling labuyo. It can also be seasoned with vinegar and '' patis'' (fish sauce). This sauce is typically served with roasted meat dishes. A similar dipping sauce used for grilled meats like ''inihaw'' is ''toyo, suka, at sili'' (literally "soy sauce, vinegar, and chili"). It is made of soy sauce, vinegar, and ''si ...
