Hot Sauce

[Wheezer]

I once made a hot lime pickle that ate through the lid of the Ball jar while it was aging. It was savage, but perhaps unsafe for consumption because of the residual lid in the mix.

As usual, 1970s British cookbooks offer ready alternatives for those who would carp about such nonsense. I shall not address these further, though, instead to suggest that the meat-including hot condiment pokkum koch'ujang sounds interesting.

Unbump. Let's crown this thread unnecessary. Tobasco wins. Done. And done.

That's what we get for giving Iowa and New Mexico the vote.

If anyone can find this stuff, it's really awesome.
Plus, all-natural and only has about 5-6 ingredients and all are easily identifiable.

Over the past week or so, the foodie world's been abuzz over a report from the University of Nevada, Las Vegas showing that there are high levels of lead in Mexican hot sauces. Researchers bought 25 brands of hot sauces in Latino grocery stores around Las Vegas and put them under the microscope to see how much lead they contained.

The answers? You can't find their full results (published in the Journal of Environmental Science and Health) online, because it costs a lot of money, and the review doesn't even allow academic databases to host their papers until 18 months after they get published. They ranked them according to those whose contents "exceeded 0.1 ppm lead, "the current FDA action level for lead in candy," per the report.

Luckily, I know people in Tepito who got me a piratería version of the report, so behold the five most dangerous hot sauces that UNLV researchers found...

Tabasco Launches Its Own Sriracha — But Seems Determined to Keep It a Secret

[CBStew]

When we were in New Orleans earlier this month we found a store on Royal Street that sold nothing but hot sauces.  You could walk up and down the aisles sampling.  I was shopping for a present for one of my sons who loves the stuff.  After tasting about a dozen I bought Melinda's XXXX Habanero hot sauce.  I wanted flavor in addition to heat and while this was about as hot as most of those that I tasted it had a garlicky taste as well.  http://www.melindas.com/store.html
