I've heard good things about this stuff, does anyone here use it regularly? What do you use it in/on?

Apologies for resurrecting an old thread; I know certain forum police-esque members don't like it, but...

I'm a recent convert to Sriracha and I put it on EVERYTHING! It's become my latest obsession and I was just wondering if there were any other Sriracha maniacs out there?

I think it's a great accompaniment to Philadelphia spread on crackers; it compliments the cool cheese beautifully.

But in general it livens up any dish at all, and I've had it on pizza, pastas, in salad, you name it.

Anyone else?

I have different hot sauces for different occasions.

My favourite overall is Cholula.


Sriracha is getting more popular over here though. My local Tesco now stocks it.

Very lucky in that I live a stone's throw away from an ethnic supermarket which sells 3 SIZES of sriracha bottles.

I started out with the small as a tester.

Methinks the next purchase is going to be the large.

I haven't heard of this. How does it differ from the generic hot sauce?

You say that like it's a bad thing?

I love Cholula. I mainly put it on eggs. It adds a nice pepper flavor, beyond just the heat.

My absolute favorite is a small handmade artisanal brand from Brooklyn. But of the major brands that are more readily available, that's a good option.

One obvious difference is the consistency. It has a high viscosity, so it stays where you put it rather than running all over and soaking into things. That can be a positive or negative depending on what you're using it for.

It adds a good amount of heat and a very simple flavor that goes with basically anything. It's extremely common in Asian restaurants but is now being seen in common use for all sorts of other things.

It's not right for every situation, but it serves a useful niche, and is different enough from most competitors.

I got a big bottle of it recently from our Chinese supermarket and half of it has already gone. We went for the extra hot one with the red nozzle not the green one as we love spicy sauces (as long as they're tasty too!). Love love love the chipotle Cholula too.

Love it! I use it as a ketchup or in soups, bolagnese etc. banana ketchup is nice too - I buy that in our Asian shop ( which I wish wasn't so far away but local - hubby prefers it where it is as I'd cost him a fortune!)
