Given the descriptions of extensive farming and lack of mechanization (refrigeration) in The Shire, hobbits would likely use sauces as was common in medieval and renaissance cultures, mainly as food enhancers and preservatives, I would think. Lots of roasts and stews. Fruits, too, especially berries. Pastries and breads.
