El Yucateco XX (brown)
Melinda's XXXX
Trinidad
Pickapeppa
Matouk's Calypso Sauce

For all the hot stuff you could possibly want:
MoHotta MoBetta on line

Habanero salsa's are maybe 30,000 scoville units (measurement of heat)

Dave's insanity (made from chile extract) is maybe 50,000 scovilles. This tastes crappy to me, but is really HOT

For the completely insane they have some new concentrated extracts, 4,000,000 scoviles. $100 for 2 oz. I think you add 1 drop to a pot of chili. I am not sure why anyone would want something like this unless you had a big mouthed friend (enemy?) who kept saying nothing was too hot for him. I assume this would physically hurt you.

For me nothing above the habanero salsas are worthwhile, but the habaneros salsas YUM!

No MSG...


It should be noted that Tuong Ot Shriracha ( "rooster sauce" ) contains no MSG.

I like the El Yucateco sauses...

My favorite is "De Boca en Boco" by Grupo Fuego Maya...more flavor than most.. and still wayXXX hot.

They have a website listed.. but not much information..

www.fuegomaya.com

Normally in many restaurants.. it's Tabasco or Cholula only.. Cholula wins hands down IMO.

Thanks Cardon


It is a common ingredient in so many processed foods. I think it's relevant information.

Does anyone actually know if Mexico uses it like corporate America foods?

MSG

Get the picture?

what's wrong with Tabasco?

While I have several of the aforementioned sauces in my kitchen I also have a bottle of Tabasco. I may not use it as often as others but I do enjoy it. Am in the minority?

It's All About Balance


Hot sauces should add flavor as a grace note and not overwhelm the other tastes in the dish. The scovillenatics are missing the point.

Here's my list:

1. La India Brava, Productos Navajos, Salsa de Chiltepin
2. El Yucateco, Salsa Picante Roja de Chile Habanero
3. El Yucateco, Salsa Picante Verde de Chile Habanero
4. El Yucateco, Salsa de Chipotle Ahumado
5. Tuong Ot Sriracha Chile Sauce

I used to eat peppers like they were going out of style. I still like some heat now and again; but, I keep it toned down enough to enjoy taste.

That is unless I have a wicked cold.. then I'll take in a lot of hot sauce and "sweat it out".

Unfortunately; last time I tried this tactic.. I got a wicked burning/upset belly and still had a horrible cold... :lol:

We make a great fresh mango salsa to go over pork or fish or chicken.
Mangos, diced red onion, diced jalapenos, cilantro and a squeeze of lime.

We are getting cases of fresh local peaches right now.
Some get sliced and frozen for pies and smoothies;
some get dehydrated for snacks,
and we have a great peach chutney recipe to put up for the winter.

My kids are practically 'collectors'. They love the stuff!

Here's the current favorite for the heat-loving son (mentioned already in this thread)...

And we have a family split on 7-mares - I think it's great on seafood. The boys are always having me take pics of what we've tried so they know what to pick up at Calimax (check out the eager student of picante in the background).

Heh.

We used to keep a bottle of Habanero in the trailer as a gag. :lol:

Not much flavor, but a boatload of heat.


That's why I like the habanero salsas that have a high concentration of zanahorias in them. Good flavor and it tones down the heat level to tolerable.

Dern rule is that it's only good if it burns both on the way in and again on the way out...


Dennis, I had a special request to buy some of that "New York City" stuff for Cody today...She really needs to get back to Baja.
