Hot Sauce WITHDRAWALS! D.T.'s!
As the British call it...
Ee's gone nitive I tell you...
I cannot find my favorite @#$%^&! bottled salsa anywhere! Not here, not in Vizcaino, Guerrero Negro, Santa Rosalia, Mulege. Not in the wholesale
warehouses like Sonora, Sotres. NADA!
It's commonly found as SALSA LA VIUDA, and it is inexpensive. Found in the chain supermarkets. I could use three bottles, about two dollars worth.
Everything is "Habanero This" and "Habanero That". The hotter-is-better syndrome. Take garbage salsa, add white pepper and you have TAH-DAH! Habanero.
All heat no taste.
Life SUCKS without salsa de chile arbol y piquin!
Harrumph!

Send me a photo David and I'll bring it down with me at the end of June. I'll probably pick it up in Ensenada.

Why not just ask your amigos at Miramar to order some for you?

Chile de Arbole. Plant your own. They grow well in our area and can produce year around depending on weather (this year min quit for the winter).

Some posts on the internet indicate that De La Viuda is sold in the US (for a lot more money) under the name of.......................Cholula!
So, if you can find Cholula, it's probably the same thing.

Cholula or de La Viuda para ostiones, huevos, mas...
Pero para Maria Sangradas TABASCO! Let's me be clear about that

Ayyyyy, Si el Inglés no se habla en muchos meses que se descompone. Disculpen los errores en la gramática.
I checked with Alimentos Sonora the biggest wholesaler in the region (San Quintin to Cd Constitución), and their proveedor cannot get it either.
Supermercados Gigante, Wal-Mart, Bodega Aurerra, etc. have shelves of it.
Tambien, se puede, also, you can find packages of gourmet hot sauce in Mexico Sam's Club and Costco at times.
But, Udo, señor salvador, you can if you wish bring four bottles.
I also am seeking fresh DILL SEEDS, about 4 ounces worth, black and yellow mustard seed maybe another two or three ounces - as a mix of the two. For
my world famous dill pickles that just beat the pants off of BUBBIES! Fresh grape or oak tree leaves for tannin (entire leaves maybe a few gallon's
zip lock worth. I am hoping to make some pickle treats for visitors desperate for good ones. If I can get enough supplies I can make sweet relish
that'll knock your socks off! Refrigerate the pickles and relish in zip-lock bags and make available in the Miramar market. Nothing like fresh pickle
"stackers" for a smoked yellowtail sandwich on a bolillo. I was taught the pickle recipe miracle by (no foolin') a Jewish Rabbi from Brooklyn! His son
ran a deli there. The pickles really are outrageous.

BUBBIES??? What the heck are those?
More importantly, can they hold a candle to whole Claussens? I've never seen a pickle that can.

Hook, think of Claussen's as being a YUGO
These things of mine are pure RR Rolls Royce
One, just one single difference is the salt. "They" use granulated Morton salt that comes in paper sacks like concrete. Mine have sea salt. The
genuine article which contains a hell of a lot more than sodium chloride. You bet your sweet bippie genuine sea salt tastes different - better.
Second. "They" use dill seed. Old. Dessicated. I use the real thing. Dill herb cut minutes before it is stuffed in a jar. Their ingredients arrive in
a railroad car. They use tannin powder. YUCKIE PUKIE! Oak or grape leaves have genuine kosher flavor as well as crispness.
Some chilled pickle slices, queso Chihuahua and tostadas. Now you talkin'

If that salsa is hotter than a Dove Bar, keep it. I can't stand any of that stuff. It's nothing but the epitome of machismo.
I mean...if I wanted to be a fire-eater, I'd join the circus.

How about "Lion Tamer" ...... as a second choice, if things get too hot 
they are finding all kinds of "cool stuff" related to the capsaicin molecule's and it's interaction within the human digestion system, to start with,
plus a lot more
Amazing what the America's evolved within the "plant" kindgom and its impact on the world
"STAT3 suppresses transcription of proapoptotic
genes in cancer cells with the involvement of
its N-terminal domain"
http://www.pnas.org/content/110/4/1267.full.pdf+html?sid=c01...
Keep them coming ...... usually have a: Jalapeno, Serrano, Anaheim and a Habanero (for flavor)
Here I am going out to check the "plants"

Guess you didn't read my disparaging remarks about "Habanero" chile señor Dennis.
Salsa la Viuda is quite milder than Tabasco. I do like Tabasco de jalapeño which also is milder than red tabasco.
I've grown overly fond of amilentos enchilados, food with chile. But not drippings that mimic the alien's saliva on the movie "Alien", the stuff that
burns holes through three decks of a spaceship.
