Current Events > Let's talk about Hot Sauce

(+) Yeah! (+)

I've recently discovered a love for Hot Sauce. I always enjoyed it, and spicy foods in general, but never went out of my way to buy it or think about all the things I could put it on.

But I LIKE IT A LOT. Been adding it to scrambled eggs, and some of the frozen foods I eat sometimes. But the sky feels like the limit.



This is my starting point, and it's pretty great. Other/Better options out there? This one is pretty low heat from what I understand, compared to others.

Still, I like it. I like that feeling of the face warming up and starting to sweat a little bit. Makes some foods that taste good, but plain really nice.

I'm going to be totally honest with you...I think Frank's is maybe the most overrated condiment I've ever used. I mostly enjoy it, but the way people go on about it you'd think it was God's collected tears.

When I went out of my way to make buffalo wings, I kept reading everywhere that it absolutely must be just butter and Frank's, or go home. Anything else and it's not buffalo wings.

Well alright, it might not be buffalo wings, but I'd really like to do something to even out this intense vinegar taste.

Now if you want to talk god-tier commonplace hot sauce:

BWW sells their sauces for 5 bucks per 12 ounce bottle.

If you think you can deal, The Last Dab is a super hot one that they actually bothered to make taste good. It isn't a novelty heat. Order that online from Heatonist.

If you want an excellent middle ground, there's Queen Majesty's Scotch Bonnet & Ginger. It's awesome and caters to more than just chiliheads.

Tapatio

I get a cheap diced tomatoes and green chiles *extra hot* in a small can. They add habanero pepper. It's like extra hot version of Pace Picante sauce.

Watch the YouTube series Hot Ones. Good interviews and you'll see several to look into.

La Valentina for nationwide availability. If you want to be locked in a room, hit up an ethnic store. Always a few terrifyingly effective ones.

I love that series
They've got some lethal sauces though

Frank's is also my standard and it is the best. In a way it's like the Vanilla of hot sauces. The best flavor, always great as a go-to on anything.

I've gotten really into Sriracha more recently, really great flavor and a lot of heat.

Not a fan of Tobasco, and I hate chalula.

My dad got me a collection of like 10 different flavored hot sauces for Christmas so I've been trying those on different foods.

Frank's wing sauce is the best. The regular frank's is too thin and vinegary. The wing sauce is just like the old sauce from dominos wings.

I like Nando's sauce <_<

I usually limit my Frank's Red Hot to fried chicken.
