Hot sauce

[Bruno]

This is what I ordered form heatonist.com

The aka miso is interesting for ramen dishes.
The horseradish one for steak and sandwiches.
The Cabarnet reaper idk yet but it looked interesting. definitely trying on tomato based dishes
Da Bomb is honestly just for saying I did it. For those unaware of the hot sauce world, 'da bomb' is like a rite of passage / standard for insanity.
And the 'fear this' is has cumin, cilantro, and a whole bunch of other spices that are all tasty so I wanted to really see where it would fit.

EDIT: forgot to ask: what happened with your friend and the 357?

I don't think he went through with it
Which is probably for the best.

The horseradish one is very hot but should be doable as a spread or for marinating.

The others range from mouth scalding to insane
The plain cholula comes from a belgian site, as does the last one I ordered which is hellfire, fiery fool. Which is the number 9 spot on hot ones, which is one of the hottest sauces in the world without extract. I bought it basically only to have a reference point on the most extreme end of the spectrum.

There's also sauces made with (or existing solely) of capsaicin oil extract, but I have no interest in those.
Firstly because things like fiery fool or da bomb are already so extremely hot that a few drops are enough. And secondly because they don't really have any actual taste so that defeats the purpose.

I'm changing my mind about the volcanic peppers 'thors hammer' it has a bit of a metallic aftertaste that drownsout other flavors.

I’ve had the one in the right, it’s tasty.

This is not a "hot" hot sauce but in my opinion very good.

More like a spicy mayonaise.

Only one store where I know to buy it so I bought 2!

Interesting. That looks a bit like pepper cream sauce that is traditionally served with steak here, except the traditional sauce uses green pepper (the small balls / seeds) instead of chili type peppers. It seems so obvious but I never tried making that.

I looked up some recipes for this kind of sauce and found this one. I am surprised that they use hard boiled eggs.

I am not an expert cook so my surprise should be taken in context.

Is this similar to the green pepper sauce but different peppers?
