My kids call anything else “weak sauce.”

It makes great “tuna salad” for crackers- simply tuna and Sriracha. It’s surprisingly good and a nice break from the usual. It’s also wonderful for “deviled eggs”- egg yolks, mayo, sriracha alone or with a hit of a choice of spicy mustard, horseradish, or wasabi to kick it up. I can’t decide between the horseradish or the wasabi. There are a lot of variations to the recipe on the web. I buy the largest bottle (thankfully I’m near “China Town”) and go through them quickly. I use it nearly every day since discovering it. When I move to Afica in the next few months, I’ll be taking at least a case, possibly two.

Those are some ideas I probably wouldn't have thought of myself. Love deviled eggs. Since I was a kid I have mixed tuna w/mayo and put it on bread or on saltines. Only rarely do I go to the trouble of fancying it up with minced green onion, celery and sweet relish. I'll have to break out and try some Sriracha.

When I move to Afica in the next few months, I’ll be taking at least a case, possibly two.

Aha! another chili-head. lol

I'll bet they have some hot peppers in Africa depending upon where you're going. One of the two major species of hot peppers is known as African Bird pepper.

When I go to Waco I’ll have to check the new HEB store. See if they carry it, it not I’ll ask our friend in Allen to
check the Market Place, near him. Thank you for “pointing” me in the direction of Shriracha.
I make a sweet sauce with Habenero, jalapeno and dredge my chicken in it, inject some in the breast and legs. I like the heat and the taste of jalapeno. It’s sweet, spicy and so tasty. Hubby sweats when he has some.

I also mix it with ketchup for dipping fries in.

I make my own when my chili plants produce well enough to let the fruit ripen all the way to red. I remove most of the seeds, and use a bit more brown sugar and Thai fish sauce than the recipe calls for, which produces a Sriracha that I can slather on as thickly as ketchup.

love, love, love sriracha! added some to my pho noodle soup today... i also love wasabi and hot mustard...

Pho is about my favorite soup. The one with the thinly sliced raw beef that is dropped in the hot pho to cook a bit. I don't do this all the time but sometimes when eating pho I spoon up some broth then squirt a little bit of srircha into the Chinese soup spoon. Eat.  Keep repeating

Other hot sauces are good but sriracha is one of the best. I will not say it is the best

i cooked a meatloaf last weekend... with sriracha/brown-sugar glaze... and added a bit of sriracha to the meatloaf itself... it was a hit... nice bite... served with garlic mash and green beans... very comforting :)
