Hot Sauce?

Recommended Posts

I like Hot Sauce and usually go with Louisiana Hot Sauce. 

Mexican friend told me they like the one with Mexican on the bottle. 

I must admit I get mine because my kin is in Hot Sauce area of Louisiana and I suspect the Mexicans get theirs because of where it comes from. 

I must admit I have tasted many varieties and still buy what I'm use to. 

Do you have a preference of Hot Sauce?

I'm enjoying experimenting too. Of the 3 or 4 sauces commonly offered at restaurants, Cholula is my go-to now. At home my favorite so far is Melinda's original habanero. I love the habanero flavor, but most offerings are simply too hot. This one falls in the "tolerable and tasty" category for me.

Allen's grocery has a whole 4-shelf selection of hot sauces, well over 100 choices. With most under $5 each it's not too pricey to experiment, though I'll admit to throwing away a few bottles after the first taste. I've given up on anything using ghost peppers or Carolina Reapers. If there's any flavor there, it's buried so far under the hot you'll never taste it.

Added; Evaluating hot sauces is a long-term endeavor. Unlike many things you can try several variations of at once, hot sauce has such a lasting effect you need to stick to one per meal.

I can't dance like I used to.

I just had a Jalapeño omelet at the Breakfast Club in Perdido Key that needed some more lick.  They only offered Tabasco and Louisiana sauces.  Tabasco is like watered down ketchup so I chose the Louisiana.  It has way too much vinegar for my taste.
