My favorite hot sauces :)
Marie Sharp’s “Green Nopal”
Rating: ★★★★☆ | 90%
While not particularly hot, this is easily one of the tastiest hot sauces I have tried.
- Well rounded, with notes of garlic and fruit
- Adds a dash of flavor to basically any dish
- Even people who don’t care for spicy food may like this one
El Yucateco “XXXTra Hot Habanero”
The gray-brown color tone may not be appetizing, but the contents sure are.
Rating: ★★★★☆ | 85%
A hot hot sauce, supposedly based on a Mayan recipe.
- Quite hot but still enjoyable, a delight for chili heads
- Probably underrated
Cholula Original
The Original bottle with its iconic wooden cap
Rating: ★★★☆☆ | 65%
Nothing wrong with this sauce; an honest to God “standard” hot sauce, popular for a good reason.
- Medium-low heat
- Not too acidic
- Available anywhere: even across regular grocery stores northern Europe. This means it I can consume and share it without paying exorbitant prices for small imports.
