What's your favorite hot sauce / Salsa?
la Botanera Classic original
Just discovered this thanks to sanquintinsince73
Not hot...has intense flavor. Great on our deep fried burritos I make.

Oh yeah....La Botanera. That stuff is great on everything. Last night I made my family bacon-wrapped hotdogs with sauteed bell peppers and onions on
top and then a healthy squirt of Botanera.....delicious. Our favorite was Valentina until we found this stuff. Last week up in Santa Fe Springs we
made menudo and it really enhanced the flavor.

Table sauce: Amor (best said in a Barry White voice).
For a dipping sauce, I really like the canned version of Herdez Salsa Ranchera.

I make a wicked Habanero jelly........very easy to cook up.....gives good flavor with a more acceptable and titrated heat index......

Huichol and Herdez are my generic go to's. But there are some local gourmet salsas that I try to keep around as well.

Salsa Chiltepin
Made by "El Indio" out of Sonora.
I used to find it at the Comercial Mexicana in Rosarito, but, alas, no more.
Why? I read that the cost of chiltepin peppers went sky high. Maybe because of low harvest or maybe because of disruption by the drug wars.
If you can find a source for the fresh/dried peppers or the bottled salsa, if will be the best spicy/hot, but -not-too-hot flavor ever.
And if you do, share the info!

I like that one, and Huichol. Problem is that Mexgrocer and similar web sites charge an arm and a leg. & bucks for 12 oz. Geez.
I just don't get South often enough and when I do, just don't buy enough to avoid running out.

Just depends on how bad you want it I guess.
The harder to get sauces up north in the 5 oz. size are $2-$3 ea. So $7 for 12 oz. for a product you can't find easily or at all doesn't seem out of
line to this Nomad.

I am not surprised nobody has mentioned "Tapatio" salsa. It is a junk salsa found in most restaurants and made in Vernon,CA.
