no it isnt ASDA has the offer on the bigger size and is therefore much better value.

Tesco currently charges £2.50 for the 455ml

whilst Asda has this at £2.50 for the 730ml

Good find OP, I love this sauce. :stuck_out_tongue:

Great stuff, shame supermarkets don't sell the red cap variety.

I love this stuff, too. Makes you eyebrows sweat if you have enough of it. Perfect for dipping your chips in !

Spooky - I just put this on my shopping list, obviously heat added.

Love this stuff!

Always this price at Tesco

If you're looking for a very hot sauce, this does NOT tick the box. Average sort of heat comparable to Encona sauce.

Great dipping sauce with your chicken wings and also very nice to add to your noodle soup. (baa mee gai?)

Yep, they have the smaller 455ml size for £2.50 LINKLINK

nope

You do know not every item is on their website.

Well, I know it is not in my local or online now

Heat OP! Great find!

Bolton, Middlebrook, world food aisle always have it.

Go to Sainsbury's, they sell the original version , i.e. Huy Fung, for about £3

The goose brand is practically tasteless when compared to the rooster. I had no idea they stocked it in Sainsburys, I've been importing it from the States.

Encona Hot Pepper Sauce is the daddy of table sauces. End off
Good 2nd place tho

Such a great sauce. goes with pretty much everything. Not particularly hot though.

Encona hot pepper sauce everytime

This on cheese on toast. Yum.

The only hot sauce modern man needs.

is it better than Tesco's Heera hot sauce?

What are the different cap colours supposed to mean?

Sriracha usually has a white rooster on the bottle, green ribbed twist cap and is bright red. Goose brand is a weaker but good approximation and after that the rip-offs range from acceptable to outright rubbish (Tabasco has a very poor version trying to cash in on it). These can be identified by the different coloured varieties of bottle. Sriracha is great for cooking in that it subs for many chili sauces in recipes such as dynamite shrimp but the best version uses Thai chillies rather than local ones produced in the US

fantastic idea

Eww, that's for peasants, join the Sriracha master race.

Bargain, thanks for sharing :smiley:

Be careful not to massage this into your eyes or balls!

Mmmmmm MSGlicious

Encona isnt hot either though.

Nom nom town.

how does the taste compare to encona?

heard a lot about sriracha but never tried it..

Any stores near leicester sell this? I've checked my locals

Is this anything like kebab shop chilli sauce?

Love this stuff. I bought loads when they had it in Aldi. Heat

I actually prefer this to Huy Fong, Due to the fact it's thicker and isn't vinegary like the original.

Asda near me sells the red cap, seen it online as well

Is this suitable for vegetarians?

Based on ingredients on Asda website yes suitable for vegetarians

I put this on Tesco's spag bol (which is bland without it) and on the less flavourful brands of pepperoni pizza out there. It gives a nice spicy kick without a massive burn in your mouth. Supposed to be refridgerated once opened for a max of 8 weeks, but it does last longer than that. One batch Tesco had included an opaque sheath over the top of the green nozzle - presumably to cover the hole you make with a pin on the end of the nozzle (nothing on the bottle tells you to make that hole though...).

You don't need to make a hole, just twist the top

Voted hot hot hot

I usually mix this with Greek Yoghurt, makes amazing addon to any meal

If kebab shops had this instead of the watery mess they use it would be awesome. Kebabs are one of the best things to use with sriracha sauce with if you haven't tried!

Mrs D mixes it with salad cream to dip her chips in!

Asda sell the red cap also !

I have to say, though , that the bottle I got from Sainsbury's wasn't as good as the one I had before. I'm going to do a comparison soon but I'm a bit suspicious.

Went today but couldn't find it :/ blind I am
