I actually really enjoy the green tobasco, not hot but good flavor. I love hot sauce on fried eggs!

LOVE Sriracha., and use it on everything. Pizza, turkey, eggs, hell even on biscuits and gravy. I also use it as an ingredient when I am doctoring up BBQ sauce, and as an addition to chili. I keep a bottle at home, and a bottle at work. Now I'll have to try this tapatio sauce too.

I lived with the marketing rep for tobasco for 3 years and had all the free hot sauce I could eat and still never used that stuff. It's okay if it's all you have, but so many better.

The Tapatio stuff is good. I've only tried it in Mexican restaurants, never had it in my fridge. The issue that I see with it is that it is in a small bottle and does not have as much kick as the rooster sauce, so I think that I would go through it very quickly.

I use the Sriracha sauce most often but have a jug of Tapatio in the fridge too. I usually put it on Mexican food while I put Sriracha on everything.

They sell big bottles of Tapatio at Cub Foods near me and it is super cheap -- I think a 32-oz bottle was around $5!

Good to know they make a large size. I have a quart of Valentina muy picante in fridge right now that I'm working on. It is pretty similar in flavor and kick to the tapatio. I usually hit Sam's for groceries, but there's a Cub nearby that I may pay a visit to in the near future.

I like Tabasco because it is unique. I like Texas Pete cause it is salty. I pass the Sriracha everyday at
El Supermercado de Winchester. Might need to pick one up, but I use so little hot sauce now. I used
to think it was great, but the old recturoo no likee no mo. A$$ pain is the one kind of pain I just won't
incur. Nachos without Jalapenos seems like a travesty, but again, just ain't goin' there anymore.

I looked on Google at a few sites, and they seem to agree that it does not need refrigeration because of the preservatives.

Don't be mistaken; sriracha is no elementary hot sauce. Its flavor has a delicious smoky complexity and the texture is much thicker. Heat seems to slightly vary from bottle to bottle, but even at its hottest sriracha isn't too dangerous. Note: while refrigeration isn't required, keeping your bottle in the fridge will help retain color and flavor.

While Sriracha has preservatives and doesn’t need refrigeration it does oxidize a bit

Yeah, it is.

A few years ago, myself and a friend went on a "quest" to try every other sriracha sauce out there that we could get our hands on to see if one of the other sauces that has been around longer than **** sauce (huy fong foods) was actually better.

At the end of all of it, a year later and countless bottles, including stuff not available here which had to be shipped over from Thailand & Hong Kong, we came to the conclusion that you just can't mess with perfection, and Huy-Fong has it with their **** sauce. Which, interestingly enough, is exported to parts of Asia, because it's better than theirs.

These other sauces are sometimes OK, but not great - usually just don't have a good ripe pepper flavor to them or are totally out of balance with too much sugar or garlic and some are just downright funky tasting.

My wife of 30 years is Chinese although born in Vietnam. She knows the owner of Huy Fong who also is ethnic Chinese from Vietnam. He started in a small space in LA's Chinatown and become so successful that eventually he built a large manufacturing facility where they also produce other styles of hot sauce.

My wife and her family own several large Asian supermarkets in Los Angeles and Orange counties where Sriracha of course is a big seller. It's always in the house, and my kids grew up on it.

Realized I never made any comments on how I use HF **** sauce.

I typically use it as an ingredient rather than a condiment. As part of a larger/more complex cooking sauce, mixed with mustard in place of mayo for tuna salad, diluted with some fresh lime juice or apple cider vinegar and tomato paste (or ketchup) and a dash of celery seed and brushed on grilled chicken in the last few minutes of cooking, use a bit more vinegar or bourbon and a bit of onion and use it as a BBQ sauce on pulled pork, throw a bit into pasta sauces or pizza sauce, blend it with some lime juice, cumin, oregano, onion and tomato paste and instant taco sauce. Possibilities are endless, it's one of those "magic" ingredients like vinegar, soy sauce, tamarind, and chicken base/stock that you can use in just about anything that you want to bring forth more/fuller flavors, add some depth to, turn up a notch or two with some sweet spicy heat, you don't even have to use enough to make it hot, just a bit can really add complexity to what ever you are cooking.

Oh, and for the non-drinkers, you can also thin it with Dr. Pepper (regular, not diet - artificial sweeteners can do really weird things on the grill/bbq) rather than bourbon for the BBQ & grilling sauces.

You're welcome Tom. Those were just a few things off the top of my head that I've done with it and while I'm no expert, what I see is that there is so much more one can do with **** sauce when you look at it from a different perspective and just run with it.


BTW, one more I do want to throw out there that I just remembered and since tomorrow is superbowl - **** sauce, reduced sodium soy sauce and rice vinegar (regular or seasoned, depends on how sweet and salty one wants it) - optional: add a dash or three of salt-free or low salt curry powder; test this in a smaller quantity before you commit, it doesn't work for everyone - ranch dressing powder also works if you want a different flavor and if you have a really spice-a-phobic crowd, actual lite ranch dressing. Mix the **** sauce, soy and vinegar, then add to the ranch dressing,add individually and it will curdle. Use to dip deep fried wings or shredded chicken breast in.

I will never use Franks or Tobasco ever again after having Sriracha:tu

I'm not quite there yet. "hot red rooster" as my daughter calls it seems to be better on "creamy" foods. Burgers with mayo, mayo and rooster dip, and a favorite right now, eggs over light... YUM!

I still prefer tobasco on pizza and dogs....;s

I was at my favorite Cajun place for lunch the other day when I reached for the hot sauce to mix with my tartar sauce to put on my shrimp po boy. I noticed the Huy Fong among 30 others and remebered this thread so I added it on, damn it was good. I usually use Trappey's Bull but not anymore. Thanks guys :tu

Red Rooster is delicious. It's one of two hot sauces I buy. The other is Tapatio. You can't beat Tapatio on Mexi food and Top Ramen.:D

A few days ago, I mixed **** sauce, apple juice, apricot jam, brown sugar, a dash each of mace, allspice and clove, reduced it on the stove for about 10 minutes and used it to glaze grilled chicken.

I remember the days when Sriracha was damn near too hot for me too touch, now I am so used to it I barely even notice the heat...so frickin good! It does seem that over the past 5-6 years, my taste buds crave spicyness more and more...I probably put a 1/5 a bottle in my pho.

A friend at work gave me this recipe with Siracha in it and it was great.

Spicy Garlic Bread:
Butter
Mayo
White Chedder (grated fine)
Sharp Chedder (grated fine)
Garlic (minced fine)
and Siracha

You just mix it all in a bowl until you get the consistancy you like and spread it on your french bread and broil it in the oven for a little bit. Amazing and the siracha really stands out and goes so well with the chedder.

Inspired by a chicken sandwich Matt N GA cooked up, the other day I fixed this for lunch. I started with a cast iron skillet and after heating I add minced garlic, olive oil, sliced red bell pepper, and Huy Fong. Then after a minute added a chicken breast. Once the chicken was close to done I removed the skillet and added pepper jack cheese and put it all in the oven and once baked I put it on a whole wheat bun laced with a coating of mayonnaise and Huy Fong. What a fantastic chicken sandwich.

Mixed up equal parts **** sauce, soy sauce, honey, bbq sauce, ketchup and rice vinegar, used part of it as a marinade for chicken, used the rest as the finishing sauce with the addition of some cornstarch & water for broccoli, mushroom & chicken w/ garlic & blackened thai peppers stir fry.

Almost every night I eat a small bowl of almonds with hot sauce as a snack. I have always used Crystal, Texas Petes, or Louisiana (whatever Sam's had by the gallon) but I tried Sriracha and love it!!

I tried it in some cottage cheese....Yum! This has replaced all the other sauces that I have. You can add this to home made salad dressings to add a different depth of flavor.

I love Sriracha, but only on Chinese, Thai and Indian food. For some reason it just tastes like it belongs on Asian foods to me. I like Tapatio and Chulula on Mexican, but would never use it on Asian foods. The rest of the time it's Tabasco for me.
