What are some good unfermented hot sauce brands?

>>13159069
Not sure about manufactured hot sauce, but just make your own chief, it's not very hard :)

>>13159072
I'm living on campus right now and don't have access to a food processor, will chopping by hand work?

>>13159069

>>13159085
You could also use a blender. If you don't have one, then you can always chop them up before boiling, once they're nice and soft you can mash them and then strain out the bigger pieces.

>>13159092
I'll give this a shot, thanks.

>>13159097
Thanks, I'll try that too.

>>13158587
I used to be a pretty big spice nut, but I stopped eating spicy food for a while and I can't handle super spicy stuff anymore. Yet despite all that, I still love this stuff.

this one's nice if you're used to spicy food

ahhhh, finally a thread i can contribute to! *cracks fingers* *ahem* have you heard of our lord and saviour THE ARDVAARK?? yes, secret aardvark, the maker of many a "hot" night, a sauce so EPIC that when you get it out, the ladies just can't stay away from you! for those already in the know: brothers of the 'varknation, get your 'vark on and let's 'VARK IT OUT TOGHETER YO!!!!!!!

recommend some non-vinegary hot sauces please

It lacks in heat but makes up for it with flavor

>>13159871
Cholula sweet habanero, especially on eggs and such.

>>13159103
Careful man. Once you take the plunge, there's no coming back. It's not just a sauce. It's a lifestyle.

I recently just got this ordered in, wanted to try it after watching a video on the absolutely sadist that makes the peppers that went into this and how he gets high off the pain of them.
Wasn't as spicy as I thought it was gonna be, but it was still pretty fucking hot. Taste's pretty good but I usually don't like my spicy stuff to be fruity and this does have a bit of fruitiness to it. Goes good on sandwhiches, probably goes good with wings but I'm far too lazy to make wings.
Any of you guys know of a hot sauce of equal spice (or greater) than I can buy more reliably in Canada? I'd like to get more into hot sauces but the shipping on this was too insane to do more than once.

>>13159922
I got a bottle of this stuff. It's alright, but certainly not worth 500% cost compared to extra hot Valentina.

>HOT SAUCE

>>13160801
Ya. Hot sauce. It’s good. Sorry if anything hotter than paprika is too spicy for you.

>>13160801

I like chalupa for the flavor and not the heat. It's pretty much ketchup

>>13159878

I was really disappointed in this one.

My fave is Dirty Dick's. Even better than Aardvark.

Last Tuesday I was invited to a get-together with some people I work with. The host is our team lead and told us he would be making home-made pizzas. I was excited to hear this because I have a large collection of hot sauces (around 130 different bottles, not including the big name brands). As you might guess it’s hard to rotate through so many hot sauces by myself and I always relish the opportunity to show them off and explain the stories behind them.

Prior to arriving at the party I stopped at my house and prepared the bottles for transport. I have a metal attaché case I picked up from goodwill that I’ve fitted with a foam liner that will accommodate about 30 bottles. I made my selection based on which ones go best with traditional pizza toppings and made my way to the host’s house.

When I arrived I was taken aback slightly as all of my co-workers brought their significant others, and while I expected the host’s wife to be there I was not made aware that we were allowed to bring our own guests, and being the only single male in attendance I felt a little out of place. The host asks me what’s in the briefcase and I explained that it was a hot sauce collection for us to sample and he snickered a bit, as if he didn’t believe me. I opened the case to show him and he rolled his eyes and laughed. He then rudely asked me to “just put it somewhere in the kitchen” and goes back to making small talk about sports and other uninteresting topics.

Dinner time rolls around, and the host sets out two large pizzas on stones that he claims to have “made himself” but I saw the pre-mixed dough bag in his trash earlier. They look decent enough, one is sausage and mushroom and the other is peppers, olive and onion. He also has pathetically set out a bottle of Cholula and a bottle of Tabasco. As the line starts to form I fetch my case and set it at the end of the counter. The host seemed to get annoyed and said there wasn’t enough room for my sauce collection.

>>13161293
Luckily, his wife was a tad more gracious and cleared off some counter space for me. As the guests made their way to me they were in awe of the selection I had provided and I made individual recommendations based on their heat and flavor preferences (for the females of course I made sure to pack several mild sauces).

I grab my plate and a couple bottles and seat myself at the table. The host has switched to whiskey and coke at this point, and snubbed me as I try to offer him a bottle of Dante’s Retribution Ghost Jolokia Limited Release. He said he wanted “to actually taste his pizza” and dribbled out a few drops of Tabasco onto his slices. I made conversation with the couple next to me who I had provided with a bottle of Green Thunder Sweet and Spicy Anaheim Suicide Blend and talked about the trip I made to Scottsdale just to acquire this sauce. It may have been a tad overpowering because they and several other guests only took a bite or two of their pizza before asking for a glass of milk and did not finish their meal.

The host drank heavily for the remainder of the night and seemed to gradually get more irritated with me. He stormed off into another room and I could hear him yelling at his wife. My other co-workers said their goodbyes and as I packed my case up the host’s wife came out and thanked me for coming and apologized for the rudeness of her husband. I said I understood, and assured her his inability to handle high-scoville counts was not a reflection on his masculinity. I also gifted her a bottle of Demon’s Tears Yellow Habanero Batch 50 (which you cant even find online anymore) and thanked her for the lovely evening.

The host hasn’t said anything to me at work for the past week except for communicating things vital to our job, and even then he’s been pretty short with me. I’m just wondering if I overstepped my bounds? If a person isn’t able to handle manly, spicy hot sauces, I don’t feel they should host a pizza party.

what's your opinion about shaking dried chilli flakes onto food, anon?

>>13161306
Hot sauce is for fat tasteless faggots.

it's also a good way of preserving your peps if you garden.

And tapatio is good cheap sauces that stay good a long time because of the vinegar and salt
Tabasco is good too but a bit more expensive

Do hot sauce enthusiasts even cook

>>13161550
Why would he have hot sauce when he doesn’t eat food tho?

>>13159092

Nope. They grill sometimes so that’s something I guess.

Not that anon but I like to put crushed hot peppers on most of the italian foods I eat.

>>13160625
You can't thread yourself newfriend

>>13159934
I really wanted to try this one. But it has horrible reviews on their own website and it also costs $20 a bottle. I feel like it's a shitty gamble and I'll prob just get one of the Da Bomb variants for my super hot fix.

What occurs at hot sauce contests?

>>13158587
The Marie Sharp's "fiery hot" is my go to hot sauce for most things. I like the piquancy of the comatose sauce the best but it tastes kind of funky compared to the other ones and they're plenty potent themselves. For Cajun and Creole food though I usually just go with Tabasco or Crystal.

I like putting this stuff in creamy soups. Gives it a nice smokiness.

>>13163911
my mom brought a bunch of these back from her trip to belize, was pretty good stuff.

>>13158587

>>13160625
I got their jalapeño sauce just the other day from the local Mexican store, just picked a random sauce among many and it's pretty good. Need to try their other products.

used to have a colombian coworker, who once from a home visit brought back a small plastic jar with an orange mojo or aji criollo, i can't remember which one, that essentially came down to the texture of sambal oelek. that shit was unbelievably delicious and i haven't been able to find that particular brand ever again, nowadays i don't even remember it's name anymore.

That's an awesome contribution to the party bro. Makes it at least three times as good as without the sauces.

Hot sauce is the NASCAR of cooking.
