Can sauce stay out over night?

Sauces are typically made with perishable ingredients, such as dairy products, eggs, and meat, which can spoil quickly if left out at room temperature. Additionally, sauces can be a breeding ground for bacteria, which can cause foodborne illnesses.

For safety reasons, it is best to refrigerate sauces after they have been cooked and to discard any leftovers that have been left out at room temperature for more than two hours.
