Gire Posted January 17, 2008 Share Posted January 17, 2008 Team, Post up your fave sauces, pastes, pickles, hot or otherwise. I am a big hot sauce fan and have tried my fair share over the years. I often have to remember to ease up on the application of sauce in order not to offend the chef (usually Mrs. gireland). Lets start with the easy one. Tabasco, my first love. I'm sure some will flame me for adding the 'kleenex' of hot sauces, but I've been adding this to soups, gravies, eggs, etc for the better half of my life. http://i24.photobucket.com/albums/c23/gireland/gallon_red.jpg Second, my current fave as it's loaded with heat but actually full of flavor. Plus it's a Canadian sauce. This is currently replacing Tabasco (shhh, don't tell her!) "Acid Rain". Highly recommended if you can find it. http://i24.photobucket.com/albums/c23/gireland/Acidrain.jpg Third, a sauce from the famous Patak group of England. This is their hottest pickle and is pure Indian heaven, even better than Aishwarya Rai. "Hot Lime Pickle". Great on cold cuts. I salivate just typing this one up. http://i24.photobucket.com/albums/c23/gireland/Hotlime.jpg One to stay away from is below. "Iguana XXX". I bought a bottle a year ago, thought it was pretty good and recently got another bottle. This stuff is not too hot at all, contrary to the big marketing blurb they put on the side, and is loaded with salt. The difference between this one and the ones above is that it's more of a citrus-fruit and carrot-based sauce, but it just tastes like MSG-in-a-bottle. Maybe a bad batch but I won't be purchasing it again. Can't win 'em all. http://i24.photobucket.com/albums/c23/gireland/iguana-xxx-large.jpg What do you guys like? Mass-market "Frank's", or something more intense and 'small-batch'? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gire Posted January 17, 2008 Author Share Posted January 17, 2008 No dude... the 'Val' sauce. I don't think of your sig as a joke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest heightsgtltd Posted January 17, 2008 Share Posted January 17, 2008 Actually, no. That's a sauce i really like. I never even put two and two together, but it would have been funnier if I had Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gire Posted January 17, 2008 Author Share Posted January 17, 2008 I'll have to try it. Is House of Parliament popular down in the US? HP? Another 'kleenex' type sauce but it's the best thing with corned beef hash. I read once that Heinz bought the recipe from the original Brit group so it's probably all over the place.

fonts Posted January 17, 2008 Share Posted January 17, 2008 HP is incredible but believe it is a Canadian thing. I heard a rumour that it is being discontinued???? Anybody else hear the same?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dmiller5 Posted January 17, 2008 Share Posted January 17, 2008 Man I love hot sauce. I used to hate it until I moved to new orleans, then I fell in love. In my opinion, there is only 1 hot sauce... Crystal, a New Orleans original http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/5/57/Crystal_Hot_Sauce.jpg/100px-Crystal_Hot_Sauce.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SilverLeg Posted January 17, 2008 Share Posted January 17, 2008 +1 for Franks here as well Am I allowed to talk salsa here ??? Didn't see a separate post yet. Just tried this salsa, really good with just the right amount of kick Mrs Renfro's Green Salsa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gire Posted January 17, 2008 Author Share Posted January 17, 2008 Absolutely. This is the sauce thread. Salsa is most welcome. I added in my favorite Indian hot lime pickle, so our Mexican friends must be represented as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eVoMotion Posted January 18, 2008 Share Posted January 18, 2008 My wife used to bring me hot sauces from her travels. I think she has been to 30 states or so. I have at least 30 sauces before I told her to stop. My favorite one out of all of them is - Mountain Man Fire Roasted Habanero. What I like about it is that the blend off flavors are so good - simple and complex that it definitely wins out over all my others. I have ordered it by the case and given it away to others. Problem is that it is so good I want to put a lot on things...butt it is soo hot it burns. I often over do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
