Hot Sauce
Hot Sauce
Close season throws up some pretty random threads so I thought I’d ask before Saturday. What is your favourite hot sauce? I love a bit of Franks red hot but I’m looking for a couple of alternatives to spice things up. Any suggestions?
Re: Hot Sauce
Tingly Teds is my go-to at the moment.

Re: Hot Sauce
Louisiana Hot Sauce
It's a fermented hot sauce akin to the more famous Tabasco Sauce but Louisiana has a far, far superior flavour profile and isn't quite as hot. I tried it just the once in America and now buy it in from Amazon.
If you're looking for actual flavour to accompany the heat, you really ought to get yourself a bottle.

Re: Hot Sauce
Went on the amazon link and it eventually led me to 3.78 litres of Franks red hot for £18. You can have it on your corn flakes.

Re: Hot Sauce
Baron's West Indian Hot Sauce from St. Lucia is my favourite.
Goes on anything and good to have at breakfast also on eggs.

Re: Hot Sauce
Favourite? Well, depends what you're using it for doesn't it!
I've got at the moment...
Franks Red Hot, Habanero, Buffalo (Find Jalapeno if they still make it, makes amazing Mac and Cheese with a glug of that mixed in!)
Buldak 2x
Tingly Teds
Bibigo Hot Jang
Linghams
Sriracha (healthy boy brand)
Sweet Chilli Thai (healthy boy brand)
Texas Pete
Sweet Baby Rays Nashville Hot (shite!)
LKK chilli oil (does that count?)
Aside from that I've got about 30 random bottles of stuff you get in those gift packs from Matalan and TK Max at xmas.

Re: Hot Sauce
Tingly teds is good a bacon butty, hot but still tasty, get a nice fruity taste through.
I'm not a big fan of Frank's, tastes a bit sour to my pallet.
Can't beat a bit of good ol' Tabasco it Chulola too

Tastes of chilli rather than garlic which many sauces add far to much of. Scotch Bonnet based and very hot.

Re: Hot Sauce
I actually like Nando's Vusa.
African Birds Eyes, pretty hot, but a decent taste.

Nando’s extra hot peri peri is very nice on a burger at a BBQ washed down with a cold one.

Re: Hot Sauce
I have a fair old glut of hot chillis growing in a greenhouse and will probably try preserve in a sauce. Any recipes very welcome
