Okay, so it’s not like sriracha.
A good place to start for homemade sriracha is a Thai market for the
all-important peppers and spices . And add a habanero for more heat.
Later I ended up with a large pepper garden and love experimenting making my own sauces now.
It's already spicy and has a good kick to it. If you make it more spicy, it'll take away from the flavor.
Call me when there’s a shortage of Chinese chile oil. Then I will be concerned.

It has a decent flavor, but to me no spice.
🤓 someone better notify Hitlery in case she needs another few bottles for her pocketbook🤓
Sambal Oelek is so much better than Sriracha. The founder has a great story, though. Couldn’t find any Sambal during the ‘Rona so I made my own. Deee-liciious.
Sambal oelek on krupuk chips, nasi goreng mmmm.
H->! deeply affected....
There is an article from a month or two ago detailing exactly what happened and how it happened, basically it was a Self Inflicted wound that resulted in the shortages and inconsistencies in the peppers which caused the flavor to be different in different batches... there was a lot of info
I used to shop at the Underwood Ranch farm stand in Somis all the time, which was right near my parents’ house. Good people there and the BEST strawberries.
I like Kikkoman sriracha a bit better than rooster.
I like spicey... with flavor. Sriracha doesn’t do it for me... I ate hot early as an expat in SE asia, maybe my tastebuds are conditioned differently.
But I have a question... wasn’t the original sriracha recipe stolen from the originator who was NEVER compensated?
Exactly why I am a fan of Indian cuisine because it is not just heat, it is complex mix of spices. Mexican cuisine is mostly just heat.
India has a long history of kingdoms, and was the richest country one time spanning thousand+ years. The art of cooking tasty food advanced in the kingdoms. My own father was associated with a kingdom, and I still remember the amazing food at the palace.
If you have Lidl in your area (a German grocery chain like Aldi), they have a house branded spicy ketchup that is outstanding.
Last year, Lidl sold a box of 12 different German beers. Highly recommended. They were OUTSTANDING!
It was a Christmas box set. $40. C’MON CHRISTMAS!
