Spice up your food and life with some hot sauce. I’ve known so many people who acquire a taste for Tabasco or hot Sriracha sauce, they become addicted and carry a small bottle everywhere for dashing on eggs, hamburgers or fries.
Most of these hot sauces have similar ingredients but the pepper variety changes. With over 50,000 pepper varieties in the world and new varieties being created every year, it can be overwhelming to keep up with the heat levels of peppers and the endless commercial sauces that are available.
Two of the most popular are chili pepper and Tabasco pepper based sauces.
Sriracha is a type of hot sauce or chili sauce made from a paste of chili peppers, distilled vinegar, garlic, sugar, and salt.
Tabasco is an American brand of hot sauce made from tabasco peppers, vinegar, and salt. It is produced by McIlhenny Company of Avery Island, southern Louisiana which was founded by Edmund McIlhenny.
