This. Also, if you just get a few base ingredients, you will be able to make alot of sauces. Get these and play around a bit.

Olive oil
Lemons and Limes
Garlic (could sub garlic paste but fresh grated is better)
soy sauce
red wine
tomato paste
rice wine vinegar
ginger
honey
sesame3 oil

You just get these 10, and you will be able to do bases for about anything. Add butter of course, but most people have that arond regardless
