We all know that they missed out on presenting the best one of all: Valentina. 💯 Agree with both of them on Tapatío, of the group presented its the best one but it still falls behind the Valentina ideal. El Yucateco is very good for those of us that like the fire and using it on chicharrónes is the bomb! I prefer the orange one, although that green one is pretty good also. I find the green variant is best used with seafood.
I agree Felix Jose, El Yucateco is awesome sauce with both flavor and heat. If you're a person that enjoys Sriracha then you should stop discussing hot sauces...that stuff tastes like leg sweat.
THANK YOU for these videos! When I'm having a bad day, I come back and watch them again. I watch them and have to catch my breath from laughing so hard! 🤣
I'm just happy that Cholula Original and Tapatio are available in my part of South East Asia. I put them on almost every fried dish! Cholula with Lime is particularly good with empanadas.
@@G8tr1522 The Philippines, unfortunately Latin food is uncommon and there are only 1 or 2 places that I can recommend, and still not as good as the ones I had in California.
I have tried the habanero sauce, "El Yucateco. Its pretty spicy but its really good. It tastes good on any food, except chips and stuff like that. I personally like it with chicken. :3
@@arafelify I got two today (cholula and a random one that I forgot the name of). Didn’t like either. There’s a hot sauce I got from a small botique shop specializing in hot sauce called hotter than el, now that sauce is ridiculously good. I LOVE the flavor, however it’s only as spicy as sriracha sauce, I wish it had more of a kick.
@@slickwill7469 most Mexicans don’t know what Tapatío is. Tapatío is originally from L.A. The company was started by a guy making the sauce in his kitchen and going around and selling it to Mexican restaurants and little neighborhood stores (what they call bodegas in N.Y.). From there it spread to the rest of California and I’ve seen it at H.E.B. in Texas. But I’ve never encountered it in Mexico itself. Believe me, I’ve looked everywhere. To most Mexicans in Mexico, a tapatío is someone from Jalisco (which why the logo is the guy in the ranchero outfit).
I live in Yucatán. That green habanero Yucateco sauce becomes addictive once you learn how to eat it. They put way too much on. You literally have to put drops of it into your food, not huge shakes. Once you find the right balance, you’ll get a fantastic fruity vinegary flavour without much heat. I am not one of those people with a high spice tolerance and I won’t eat something spicy just to make myself look cool. But I eat this sauce almost daily without any problem. I will even mix it with other chiles. Like I will often order enchiladas with a xcatic chile sauce and still add the habanero sauce. 😋
I appreciate that this has two people with very different tastes in hot sauce. I also appreciate that you had El Yucateco on here which is my favorite hot sauce! Although I think it's too spicy to eat on chips on it's own. I usually mix it into a milder really chunky salsa for best effect.
The Kutbil-Ik one from El Yucateco, that brown one they tasted, that's my go-to salsa. They have a black one that I like as well (the green and red are boring). But the brown Kutbil-Ik, man that stuff is AWESOME. Spicy, but once you get used to it, it's the smoky flavor that keeps bringing yo back.
I've had that habanero one a few times, it's no joke. My favorite, everyday-every-taco sauce is Valentina Extra Hot though...it has a nice little heat and is almost laughably cheap lol.
You know the funny thing is the valentina isn't really hot for most of Mexicans. Its just for good taste. My 6 yld boy, eat that all the time, he loves with his fruit and chips. I love Yucateco by the way :)
Where’s the Valentina? Was really hoping they’d review that one. Perfect amount of heat but even bigger on the flavor. Tapatio is my other go to, glad they ranked that high.
I watched these ladies fry Rachel Ray for her Mexican dishes and they made me laughed so hard that @MaMah has gained a loyal subscriber for life. Thanks ladies for the laughter and introduction to Tapatio
The El Yucateco Mayan recipe is my personal favorite!!! It is VERY hot so you have to be careful, but it is more than just HOT, the flavor is IMMENSE!!! If you have never tried it, I highly suggest it. So good!!!
I was surprised to see how differently they reacted to it. "Lemon with salt" is a much better description of gasoline than it is of Cholula. To me, Cholula has a complex, "warm" flavor that I like a lot better than the many "vinegar with capsaicin" sauces out there. I'm glad the other lady liked it.
Xochitl: I give it a 10 because it's tasty Lucy: I give it a 2 because it doesn't have flavor. Lucy is really the Mexican Gordon Ramsay 😆 This is why I love this channel 😆
Just shows that culture really does affect our palate. I have a bottle of tapatio in my fridge that I can't finish, because it tastes like spicy dirt to me. I MUCH prefer the vinegar based sauces like that Red Rooster.... I was really interested in their opinion on sriracha, since it's completely different than both styles.
@Major Problems Congrats, you've defeated my clumsy thumbs and crappy autocorrect. Usually, the time to do that is when someone is being an ass, but you're way too cool for that.
HAHAHA that last one had me laughing! I'm glad they one woman liked Sriracha, I LOVE it! And as for the other woman's comment, The sweetness is WHY I love Sriracha.
El Yucatan is an absolute beast! I tried the “black label” when i was young and it is insane. Remember darker is hotter! Stay away unless you like having ulcers and hemorrhoids at the same time. It’s that brutal.
I love the fact that they have different opinions on the same salsa some don't think it's that good while some are. It gives you an insight of their taste buds.
I wish they would do a blind test for these. Sometimes if you know the brand (like a Taco Bell, for example), you are primed to have ideas about the flavor.
You can tell that Lucy is very Americanized. Her accent in English is identical to American and she fucking ranks Taco Bell Hot Sauce above fucking Cholula.
@@frannncoco Try going to a good local Mexican Restaurant. It’s not the same as having homemade Mexican food, but it’s still good 😌 Posole and Menudo are amazing. My parents are Mexican so those two are my favorite dishes my mother makes
That El Yucateco at 4:19 is NO JOKE! I tried that at a Mexican restaurant and almost ended up in the hospital 🤣🤣 But I do keep a bottle at home. Great stuff
These would be better with blind taste tests. It's pretty silly asking someone to try Tapatio and score it when it's the preferred hot sauce they use at their house every day. Of course they're gonna rank it a 10. Also, the taco bell hot sauce is always gonna score lower cause that's a cheap ass brand
This as Im watching it, every respectable Mexican would say they don’t like Tapatio is just vinegar salt and water for real.. like probably we only eat in restaurants or for breakfast with huevito.. the only salsa in our hearts that is not homemade is Valentina. Maybe just maybe for a fast fix Mexicans brands like costeña y herdez
Even in a blind taste test most Chicanos (Mexican/American) would probably know it’s tapatio since we eat it all the time. My dad calls it an emergency bottle if we don’t have homemade salsa
@@pineapple_milk7240 I disagree. My japanese mom loves Kikkoman soy sauce enough to the point she carries it in her purse. In a blind taste test she claimed to prefer a generic soy sauce from a chinese restaurant. The blind taste test helps to eliminate confirmation bias. If it wasn't a blind taste test, she would've claimed the Kikkoman was far superior.
Bc they're Mexican, Tabasco taste like nothing to us, and Valentina is so popular we use it for chips and snacks, we already know what it taste like just by hearing the name
El Yucateco is so good. I've only tried the green and red sauces, cause that's all I can find locally. I should order some online and see what all the other flavors are all about.
Lol el yucateco I fuck with. That one and Mexico Lindo habanero. My go-tos when I don’t have freshly made salsa. But don’t sleep on the Louisiana’s. It’s bomb with fried shrimp and fish. Tapatío and Valentina on cup of noodles or chips like Doritos or simple fried salted. Taco Bell sauce on food to the likes of Taco Bell 😆 Cholula maybe on my eggs. Meh. Gonna have to try la victoria green Chile. Forgot sriracha for Chinese food 😋
I really like Cholula. I like a lot of spice and it doesn't have that, but I find that it tastes really good and I haven't found many widely-available very hot sauces that do. I was surprised that Lucy panned it. Never tried the green variety. Tapatio is excellent; I wish I could find it where I live. I've had El Yucateco (though I've never seen the extra hot variety) at restaurants but can't find it in stores. Don't find the flavor very interesting but it can work with other sauces to add heat. Taco Bell sauces are terrible, unsurprisingly. I used to get the "Fire" sauce and would wonder "Where's the heat?" Very vinegary sauces such as whatever that Louisiana sauce was are fine on eggs or hot wings but I don't want them on my tortilla chips or tacos or whatever. They need something very rich where the vinegar complements rather than overwhelms. La Victoria was a staple in my household growing up but I usually went with the red sauces. Don't really have a strong opinion on this one. I like sriracha but I'm not fond of the Huy Fong variety; I find it has a weird metallic taste maybe? It's OK in dilute applications. I'm currently enjoying the Shark Brand sriracha which may or may not be available in your local Asian market.
I used to love Huy Fong Foods version of sriracha but a few years ago we noticed a change in the flavor; a change we didn't like as much. Looking into it, we found that Huy Fong Foods changed their pepper suppliers. They had used almost entirely one supplier: Underwood Ranches. Underwood Ranches has their own sriracha but I have not tried it yet so I can't say if it is the same as the sriracha we loved or not. We still buy Huy Fong's version, at least for now (TY for the Shark brand recommendation, BTW); and their sambal oelek is great for our Middle Eastern-inspired dishes.
What do you want to see them rank next? 😅
They should react to Racheal Ray's pozole video or they should rank tacos.

Fo sho
I knowwwww
Fr
It's in the same level as tapatio
A mi me gusta la Valentina, porque está en medio y sabe rico. Pica sabroso, pero no te enchila. La Cholula es puro marketing. No pica nada.
I'm with Lucy on Sriracha. I don't think it really works for Latin food, but maybe on a sandwich or as a dip
We all know that they missed out on presenting the best one of all: Valentina. 💯
Agree with both of them on Tapatío, of the group presented its the best one but it still falls behind the Valentina ideal. El Yucateco is very good for those of us that like the fire and using it on chicharrónes is the bomb! I prefer the orange one, although that green one is pretty good also. I find the green variant is best used with seafood.
They have a mole version that is my favorite. Sweet, very spicy but good roasted flavor.
Valentina is not spicy and I would take tapatío to Mexico when I go visit cause Valentina sucks ass
@@clmcls agreed, Valentína is for fruit and chips only lol tapatío is for spice. Personally I only use real salsa on food.
Yo uso la salsa yucateco la verde extrapicante y con mariscos uuff 🤤
I love how shes ranking hot sauces and gives a 0 for the sauce being hot😂
too hot ...so it cant be enjoyed lol
Too hot, can't taste the flavor and can't enjoy the spices.
some people find it so hot they can't enjoy it
I agree Felix Jose, El Yucateco is awesome sauce with both flavor and heat. If you're a person that enjoys Sriracha then you should stop discussing hot sauces...that stuff tastes like leg sweat.
THANK YOU for these videos! When I'm having a bad day, I come back and watch them again. I watch them and have to catch my breath from laughing so hard! 🤣
Loved it!! Fun to see the different reactions to the same sauces. I love Tapatio and Cholula.
Tapatio, approved yet again by mexican mothers 🇲🇽 ❤️
I'm just happy that Cholula Original and Tapatio are available in my part of South East Asia. I put them on almost every fried dish!
Cholula with Lime is particularly good with empanadas.
where do you live? is latin food common there? i wanna move out of the US someday, but the mexican food here is SO good.
@@G8tr1522 The Philippines, unfortunately Latin food is uncommon and there are only 1 or 2 places that I can recommend, and still not as good as the ones I had in California.
I love the El yucateco xxxtra hot, I put it on everything, guacamole, tacos, quesadillas, and even caldo. 😋
El Yucateco's my favorite hot sauce, it has a good all around flavor
Xxxtra hot and the bright green habanero one are among my favorite hot sauces of all time. Such good flavor and nice and spicy!
@@liesalllies I saw your name at first and thought you were saying el yucateco being good was "lies, all lies" haha
You should try the yucatece black (smoked habanero). It is exceptionally good. Really all their sauces are nice if you don't mind some heat.
Before the pandemic I used to carry a bottle of El Yucateco everywhere
Y’all doodoo for not giving Valentina. I would’ve rated that one a 10++
LMAOOO DOODOO
I only see FACTS here 😤 they did Valentina dirty
Mexicans really love their Valentina.
The black stuff is a favorite.
Valentina is good but it's the poor man's tapatio
Why did this come up in my suggestions? I’m so glad it did. Brilliant and so funny.
I have tried the habanero sauce, "El Yucateco. Its pretty spicy but its really good. It tastes good on any food, except chips and stuff like that. I personally like it with chicken. :3
Yes it's the best in my opinion but it can over power the flavor of your food if you're not careful
My mom eats it and doesn't even turn red or make a face,damn....
@@mritten XD
As a yucateco, its the only one I buy
@@nestorgonzalez1754 yeaaaaaaa
Who's mom had a bottle of tapatio in their purse every where we went? Mine did. Lol.
Funny shit dude lol.
Your mom's name wasn't Hillary was it?
So did HRC.
My mom did but she also carried jalapeños in her purse lol
It's a good idea, because most restaurants make food so bland. Especially Mexican restaurants in the US. Seems to cater to anglos.
Me as a white guy who knows nothing about hot sauces: “Yes, yes this is all valuable information.” furiously taking notes on what sauces to buy.
Start w/the basics: Tapatio, Cholula, Valentina, Sriracha, Frank's, Crystal
@@arafelify I got two today (cholula and a random one that I forgot the name of). Didn’t like either. There’s a hot sauce I got from a small botique shop specializing in hot sauce called hotter than el, now that sauce is ridiculously good. I LOVE the flavor, however it’s only as spicy as sriracha sauce, I wish it had more of a kick.
Seriously, since I tried Tapatío it's my allround sauce. So good. I like Cholula as well though. But they are very different.
I think Mexicans only like Tapitio hot sauce. I’ve tried it, to me it’s horrible for my taste buds.
@@slickwill7469 most Mexicans don’t know what Tapatío is. Tapatío is originally from L.A. The company was started by a guy making the sauce in his kitchen and going around and selling it to Mexican restaurants and little neighborhood stores (what they call bodegas in N.Y.). From there it spread to the rest of California and I’ve seen it at H.E.B. in Texas. But I’ve never encountered it in Mexico itself. Believe me, I’ve looked everywhere. To most Mexicans in Mexico, a tapatío is someone from Jalisco (which why the logo is the guy in the ranchero outfit).
I live in Yucatán. That green habanero Yucateco sauce becomes addictive once you learn how to eat it. They put way too much on. You literally have to put drops of it into your food, not huge shakes. Once you find the right balance, you’ll get a fantastic fruity vinegary flavour without much heat. I am not one of those people with a high spice tolerance and I won’t eat something spicy just to make myself look cool. But I eat this sauce almost daily without any problem. I will even mix it with other chiles. Like I will often order enchiladas with a xcatic chile sauce and still add the habanero sauce. 😋
I’m a bit surprised Valentina wasn’t there
Same
Xotchtil always says OOOOOHHHAAAAA when she’s excited 😂
No Valentina?
That's what I was about to say.
ONG like la Valentina Is so good
It's obvious that they forgot
I appreciate that this has two people with very different tastes in hot sauce. I also appreciate that you had El Yucateco on here which is my favorite hot sauce! Although I think it's too spicy to eat on chips on it's own. I usually mix it into a milder really chunky salsa for best effect.
I only eat “El yucateco” when we do Mojarras y camarones fritos or ceviche, cóctel!!
The Kutbil-Ik one from El Yucateco, that brown one they tasted, that's my go-to salsa. They have a black one that I like as well (the green and red are boring). But the brown Kutbil-Ik, man that stuff is AWESOME. Spicy, but once you get used to it, it's the smoky flavor that keeps bringing yo back.
I've had that habanero one a few times, it's no joke. My favorite, everyday-every-taco sauce is Valentina Extra Hot though...it has a nice little heat and is almost laughably cheap lol.
I like Valentina too. I use Tapatio more often though, even though Valentina's in my cabinet.
You know the funny thing is the valentina isn't really hot for most of Mexicans. Its just for good taste. My 6 yld boy, eat that all the time, he loves with his fruit and chips. I love Yucateco by the way :)
I use a habanero hot sauce I dont know the name of it but its not spicy
Where’s the Valentina? Was really hoping they’d review that one. Perfect amount of heat but even bigger on the flavor. Tapatio is my other go to, glad they ranked that high.
I watched these ladies fry Rachel Ray for her Mexican dishes and they made me laughed so hard that @MaMah has gained a loyal subscriber for life. Thanks ladies for the laughter and introduction to Tapatio
It's a true deal about shaking your hot sauce
Who else randomly just found this channel in ur recommended!?😂😂
Me 😂😂 now im obsessed
@@amberg6707 ikr
me lol
The El Yucateco Mayan recipe is my personal favorite!!! It is VERY hot so you have to be careful, but it is more than just HOT, the flavor is IMMENSE!!! If you have never tried it, I highly suggest it. So good!!!
My absolute fave
I use it to kick up the spice when my chicken wings are not hot enough.
My poor Cholula got roasted. It’s okay my Cholula I still love you 😂
I love Cholula too.
I was surprised to see how differently they reacted to it. "Lemon with salt" is a much better description of gasoline than it is of Cholula. To me, Cholula has a complex, "warm" flavor that I like a lot better than the many "vinegar with capsaicin" sauces out there. I'm glad the other lady liked it.
Cholula is great for breakfast stuff tbh but I prefer tapatio. They did Cholula dirty here
Chola is good if you can’t get tapaito
Xochitl: I give it a 10 because it's tasty
Lucy: I give it a 2 because it doesn't have flavor.
Lucy is really the Mexican Gordon Ramsay 😆
This is why I love this channel 😆
or the Mexican Cassandra
Cassandra: *"WHERES THE FLAVOR?!?"*
*"I DONT TASTE THE CINNAMON, NUTMEG AND MILK!!"*
*"ITS JUST BLAND"*
I just found this channel and I absolutely love it! Keep going!!
The sauce "El Yucateco" is from the place where I live, this sauce is used in almost all dishes in the area, not having one at home is an insult.
We have more "la anita" and calling it "sauce" sounds like a slur.
Definitely need to visit this place!!
It's great!
❤️ I love this moms
Amo a estas mamás
Just shows that culture really does affect our palate. I have a bottle of tapatio in my fridge that I can't finish, because it tastes like spicy dirt to me. I MUCH prefer the vinegar based sauces like that Red Rooster.... I was really interested in their opinion on sriracha, since it's completely different than both styles.
@Major Problems Congrats, you've defeated my clumsy thumbs and crappy autocorrect. Usually, the time to do that is when someone is being an ass, but you're way too cool for that.
Lucy: Mmm ta buena!
Xochitl: "Ptuj" *N O*
HAHAHA that last one had me laughing! I'm glad they one woman liked Sriracha, I LOVE it! And as for the other woman's comment, The sweetness is WHY I love Sriracha.
Sriracha is my go-to hot sauce
El Yucatan is an absolute beast! I tried the “black label” when i was young and it is insane. Remember darker is hotter! Stay away unless you like having ulcers and hemorrhoids at the same time. It’s that brutal.
ulcers & hemorrhoids? 😭😭😭 i need to try that sauce
The black label is my favorite
When they both like something, you know it's going to be FIRE.
These ladies make my day, they are just so cute and nice!
This is awesome haha! Keep up the great work! 👍
My heart broke when Valentina was not featured. Valentina + Doritos = LIFE 🥺🙌🏽😭
Tapatio + Doritos + Lime = LIFE
Tapatio seems to be a winner. I have buy it for friend that love hot sauces.
I love the fact that they have different opinions on the same salsa some don't think it's that good while some are. It gives you an insight of their taste buds.
I wish they would do a blind test for these. Sometimes if you know the brand (like a Taco Bell, for example), you are primed to have ideas about the flavor.
“Green sauce is very good if you know how to make it.” Absolutely true!!!
Most sauces are only good if you know how to make it =p
What a dope video demonstrating how someone feels on whether or not something is in accordance to the cultural standard they know.
I love them so much 😭 totally the Tia vibes with their attitude and Mexican traditions 💗
This needs a pt 2 with all the new kinds of hot sauces coming out these days 😄
You can tell that Lucy is very Americanized. Her accent in English is identical to American and she fucking ranks Taco Bell Hot Sauce above fucking Cholula.
What i am hearing is : Your palate can be Americanized
(NOTE it can’t)
Yeah you can notice who knows mexico and who doesnt lol
2:37 the hot sauce was so hot that it made her switch languages for a second
I love how she tries to scrape the spice off with the chip 🤣
Thank you Mad Mex for bringing Tapatio hot sauce to Australia! It really is one of the best in the world!
"Medicine with chile at the end" LOL
I would like to try some Mexican food/snacks :D
They all slap on maruchan😤
I only ate tacos and burritos. I hope I can eat more than that 🤷♂️
@@frannncoco try tamales (some are Guatemalan but it's ok)
Jaujua Cocina Mexicana has a video9s on Mexican fo9o9d. She's from Texas and has subtitles available.
@@frannncoco Try going to a good local Mexican Restaurant. It’s not the same as having homemade Mexican food, but it’s still good 😌 Posole and Menudo are amazing. My parents are Mexican so those two are my favorite dishes my mother makes
Good to see Tapatio’s stamp of 10+ approval 👍🏽
make them try eachothers food, they seem to have different tastes 😁
HII EVERYONE HOPE YOU HAVE A GREAT DAY
That El Yucateco at 4:19 is NO JOKE! I tried that at a Mexican restaurant and almost ended up in the hospital 🤣🤣
But I do keep a bottle at home. Great stuff
These would be better with blind taste tests. It's pretty silly asking someone to try Tapatio and score it when it's the preferred hot sauce they use at their house every day. Of course they're gonna rank it a 10. Also, the taco bell hot sauce is always gonna score lower cause that's a cheap ass brand
This is exactly what i thought!
This as Im watching it, every respectable Mexican would say they don’t like Tapatio is just vinegar salt and water for real.. like probably we only eat in restaurants or for breakfast with huevito.. the only salsa in our hearts that is not homemade is Valentina. Maybe just maybe for a fast fix Mexicans brands like costeña y herdez
Even in a blind taste test most Chicanos (Mexican/American) would probably know it’s tapatio since we eat it all the time. My dad calls it an emergency bottle if we don’t have homemade salsa
@@pineapple_milk7240 I disagree. My japanese mom loves Kikkoman soy sauce enough to the point she carries it in her purse. In a blind taste test she claimed to prefer a generic soy sauce from a chinese restaurant. The blind taste test helps to eliminate confirmation bias. If it wasn't a blind taste test, she would've claimed the Kikkoman was far superior.
@@pineapple_milk7240 I'm Mexican American. I don't like Tapatío. I like Cholula
perplexed as why you didn’t have them try Tabasco or Valentina...........
That’s what I was thinking they picked a Louisiana salsa but it wasn’t Tabasco 🤦♀️
Tabasco is a vinegary mess but agreed on Valentina tho
Bc they're Mexican, Tabasco taste like nothing to us, and Valentina is so popular we use it for chips and snacks, we already know what it taste like just by hearing the name
Tabasco is blah. Too vinegary. If we talking Lousiana style hot sauces then Crystal > Tabasco.
El Yucateco is my favorite out of all the salsas that was shown here . Kutbil-ik and Caribbean are my go-to.
El Yucateco is so good. I've only tried the green and red sauces, cause that's all I can find locally. I should order some online and see what all the other flavors are all about.
Lol el yucateco I fuck with. That one and Mexico Lindo habanero. My go-tos when I don’t have freshly made salsa.
But don’t sleep on the Louisiana’s. It’s bomb with fried shrimp and fish.
Tapatío and Valentina on cup of noodles or chips like Doritos or simple fried salted.
Taco Bell sauce on food to the likes of Taco Bell 😆
Cholula maybe on my eggs. Meh.
Gonna have to try la victoria green Chile.
Forgot sriracha for Chinese food 😋
Oooweeee!! You have good taste buds!! I love how you placed each salsa with different foods and I agree with you 100%
i had a stroke reading that
I love El yucateco. Its my go to hot sauce when I want to add a a buncha heat and not too much overwhelming flavor to my food.
Same 😃
Ya'll are my favorite person 💛
I really like Cholula. I like a lot of spice and it doesn't have that, but I find that it tastes really good and I haven't found many widely-available very hot sauces that do. I was surprised that Lucy panned it. Never tried the green variety.
Tapatio is excellent; I wish I could find it where I live.
I've had El Yucateco (though I've never seen the extra hot variety) at restaurants but can't find it in stores. Don't find the flavor very interesting but it can work with other sauces to add heat.
Taco Bell sauces are terrible, unsurprisingly. I used to get the "Fire" sauce and would wonder "Where's the heat?"
Very vinegary sauces such as whatever that Louisiana sauce was are fine on eggs or hot wings but I don't want them on my tortilla chips or tacos or whatever. They need something very rich where the vinegar complements rather than overwhelms.
La Victoria was a staple in my household growing up but I usually went with the red sauces. Don't really have a strong opinion on this one.
I like sriracha but I'm not fond of the Huy Fong variety; I find it has a weird metallic taste maybe? It's OK in dilute applications. I'm currently enjoying the Shark Brand sriracha which may or may not be available in your local Asian market.
I used to love Huy Fong Foods version of sriracha but a few years ago we noticed a change in the flavor; a change we didn't like as much. Looking into it, we found that Huy Fong Foods changed their pepper suppliers. They had used almost entirely one supplier: Underwood Ranches. Underwood Ranches has their own sriracha but I have not tried it yet so I can't say if it is the same as the sriracha we loved or not. We still buy Huy Fong's version, at least for now (TY for the Shark brand recommendation, BTW); and their sambal oelek is great for our Middle Eastern-inspired dishes.
The yucateca is soooo good! I also love their limited edition black sauce.
the best
YES!!!! I forgot about the black sauce!
