Then don’t rush out and buy a bottle of Sriacha.
For everyone else, don’t be put off by some fool food writer calling it a key American food. That said, it has replaced Tabasco for me, though my wife sticks with Tabasco.
Think of Sriacha as ketchupy Tabasco, from a texture perspective, and the spicy aspect of it has more flavor complexity than Tabasco. Good stuff, recommended (unless you don’t do spicy hot).
Nope.
Basically hillbilly corn syrup, after a fashion.
That, with real butter on hot corn bread is bliss.

MSG was sold as “Accent”. Pearl Bailey did the commercials and she really did love it; all her cookbooks include it.
This must be the stupidest book published on cookery.
I have that cookbook! It’s very nice.
Oh, OK. Sounds good!
Thanks for the link. Next time I’m in the south I’ll look for it. I always try out regional stuff.
When I was younger, I used to live in Laurel...Maryland. Creepy.
I had a VERY old book on gastronomy (sp). Awesome....told the history of all the condiments and sauces. Wish I had saved it for my daughter.
King Syrup is made in New York, near Lake Erie.
I have several medieval cookbooks. Or histories of medieval cookbooks with recipes. I think I got The Forme of Curry on kindle for free. (Not exactly a read-in-bed type of book.)
But I do love the Williamsburg cookbook. Beautifully done.
Ugh, pepper. I was at a Christmas party last year, trying to talk to someone and finding myself becoming hoarse and having difficulty breathing. I couldn't figure out why until I finally found a pepper grinder nearby on the table. Once I moved it, I was fine.
I'm certain a bite of that black pepper cake would kill me.
I question sriracha as an "enduring flavor. It may have a lot of mentions in recent years, but that would be true of any fad item. To be enduring, it has to have a history of common use--which I don't think sriracha does.
Spicing aside...Every culture has its pancake, just as every culture has its egg roll.
Okay, I'm curious--how is it that most Americans mispronounce "paprika," and how is it supposed to be pronounced?
I never found paprika to have much of a taste, but I found some Spanish paprika that is nice and smoky, which is quite good.
Sad that an adult woman didn’t know you scald moose head - outside - in an oversized pot over a pit fire. (Honestly, city Yankees, how do you live day to day?)
And the levels of bigotry in this article are extreme to the level of hate speech.
How long ago did we start importing Chinese people to build things? I can totally believe we have been using soy sauce for that long. The Europeans have been trading with China for hundreds of years, so soy sauce could have been brought by European immigrants just as well as Chinese ones. I love soy sauce.
You probably know why Connecticut is called the Nutmeg State, then.
:)
That’s not real MD.
That’s DC/Balto ‘burbs.
Bleah!
Was Baltimore.
No idea, now.
Can’t eat sugar really so those halcyon days are gone.
