Yup, and I never use it straight on anything like a condiment or something. It mixes very, very well in cooking, and not just Asian cuisine, I use it all the time for a lot of stuff.

It's quick heat with some Velveeta for chips and usually with some tomato/onion salsa as well. I use it as the sauce for tacos but it's not the sole seasoning in them either. After years of adding my own spices to the grnd beef for tacos I've found that McCormick's is as good or better and much easier. Or I put a flour tortilla on a baking sheet with onions, cheese, sour cream and whatever else sounds good with Sriracha for spice and make a Mexican pizza for a snack.

I don't know if that's using it as a condiment or cooking with it but it works. I have a few other hot sauces, like red and green habanero and chipotle, and use them all similarly. I guess I do use them as a condiment on fried potatoes and onions as well as eggs sometimes. And then there is stir fry but I have some Asian garlic & chile paste for that as well.

All of which is only scratching the surface because for real Mexican dishes the heat and flavor start with whole dried or frozen roasted chiles both red and green. Also good in stir fry.

I have a feeling I know where dinner is going tomorrow. I just realized it's been a little bland lately. lol
