The Chili Pepper and Hot Sauce Thread

[dfkt]

The Asian food store finally got the "super hot" Sriracha sauce in! Never tried it before - it tastes amazing, so much smoky flavor. It's not "super hot" at all, maybe a bit more than Tabasco, but it's really tasty.

I may have to pick this up for the Mrs - she loves hot sauce - and I get food cooked!!! Double win!!!

dfkt, that stuff is amazing! Why is your bottle cap different though? Normally, it is optic green...perhaps a slightly different formulation from the ones I know here in usa?

check the asian food group - i posted a pic of how that stuff looks here in usa...

just curious....still that stuff is awesome.

Ummm, you will need a much bigger bottle

EDIT:
here, ours look like this:

Also, the garlic chili is even more awesome i think...you must try it

[dfkt]

The "normal" one has a green cap, the "super hot" has a red cap. The red one is only sold in small 200ml bottles, it seems.

[lestatar]

even more awesome - but we don't have it here

For those of you who prefer something with a little more heat, try this pure naga jolokia paste

I'm gonna try and find some sriracha sauce tonight I haven't had some for a while now and I'm almost out of red Tabasco

[copeys]

Hmm. I'll settle for the average "red" or "green" chilli.

[dfkt]

Harvest time!

[Adub]

OH my, those look like chocolate

[WalkGood]

They look great

[lestatar]

Wow dfkt, excellent. They look sooo good they don't even look real, know what I mean? Enjoy man

[CLipster]

Excellent pics.

I know this is the Chili and hot sauce thread, but would salsa also be in here and do any of you have a moderately hot salsa recipe?


thanks

[dfkt]

The one JxK posted here sounds very tasty (if one sees chutney and salsa as similar things): http://anythingbutipod.com/forum/sho...1&postcount=14

First attempt at pickling (using these instructions), hope it works.

Nice work - save some for me

Do you Americans have Nuri sardines over there? - I don't have to ask Frandroid, I guess.



They didn't change their basic design in the last ~90 years or so.

I've been addicted to them since I was a kid, and was proud I could handle their heat (which isn't particularly hot). To me, they're clearly the best spiced sardines in the world. They come with one tiny Piri-Piri chili inside, one slice of carrot, one slice of cucumber, one bay leaf fragment, one black pepper corn, and one clove. In all the ~25 years I've been eating Nuri sardines they never missed even one of the ingredients in all the tins!

Here's what the "Society for the Appreciation of the Lowly Tinned Sardine" has to say about them - http://www.sardinesociety.com/2009/0...r-et-nuri.html

Here's an Austrian news post with images, showing how Nuri are 100% hand-made with daily fresh caught sardines, the same way as 90 years ago (thus more expensive than industrial sardines, usually made from frozen fish) - http://derstandard.at/1577836946811/...die-Nuri-kommt

Dfkt,

Fishy or not too fishy?

they look good. I will have to try and find them here in Minnesota.

[dfkt]

Not fishy at all, IMO. They melt on your tongue, and they don't have bothersome fishbones in them either.

Seems some American stores at least have them in stock:
