sriracha is ok, i give it about a 4/10 in terms of hot sauces i've had in my life. it has a nice peppery flavor, the heat isn't very strong though and it has an overpowering tangy taste to it that just tends to overwhelm many foods.

i love it as an INGREDIENT, though. it works amazing as the base or supplement to a home made sauce.

Taste the meat. Not the heat.

It's great on fried chicken and if you get some soba noodles and stir fry veggies (brocli, caret, snow peas, water chesnut, etc) just add whatever meat you want cut into equal sized pieces to a hot wok or pan with garlic, ginger, salt, pepper and oil. Then cook up the veggies as the meat is finishing up. Cook off some of the liquid and add the noodles. Then when it is all hot (make sure not to overcook the meat) put it in a bowl and add a liberal amount of sriracha and some soy sauce or whatever you like on your americun chow mein.

This recipe is good but warning IT MAKES A LOT OF FUCKING FOOD.

Savory Sriracha Oatmeal recipe
1 cup rolled oats (NOT instant)
2 cups water
Small handful whole cashews
1 tablespoon Bragg Liquid Aminos, or low-sodium soy sauce
1 tablespoon Sriracha, plus more for happy squirting
2 teaspoons minced fresh rosemary
1 clove garlic, minced
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 large eggs (free-range and organic is best)
Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
In a small saucepan set over a medium heat, combine the oats, cashews, Liquid Aminos (or soy sauce), Sriracha, rosemary, and garlic. Bring it to a boil, cover, and lower the heat to maintain a gentle simmer. Cook, stirring occasionally, until most of the liquid is absorbed and the oats are cooked through, about 5 minutes.
While the oats are cooking, heat the olive oil in a medium saucepan over a medium heat. Once the oil is hot, crack in the eggs. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cook the eggs to your desired consistency, though sunny side up is my preference so the yolk can ooze all over your oatmeal. For sunny side up, cook the egg (without flipping) until the whites are set and the yolk is still jiggly, about 2 to 3 minutes.
Spoon out the oatmeal, and top each serving with a fried egg. Drizzle a little bit of leftover oil from the egg pan over the plated oatmeal. Squirt additional Sriracha over all of it should you want a little extra heat. (And who doesn’t?)
Makes 2 hearty servings

I first discovered Sriracha when it was served as a condiment for pho at a Vietnamese restaurant I went to a number of years. I didn't know what it was until much later, I just thought it was a delicious Vietnamese sauce you couldn't get without importing it or cooking it yourself.

I recently found an Indian restaurant with a friend and they had Sriracha in a dispenser, next to a selection of chutneys. I recognized it and was confused, and the friend told me what it was and that they sell it in grocery stores. And ever since, I've had a bottle in my refrigerator.

I like it.

I base my sauce choice off the food I'm eating. If I use Sriacha on scrambled eggs, I can still taste the eggs behind the sauce. Try that with Dave's or almost any other storebought sauce.

For me at least, there is no such a thing as "sipping sauce" like there is with whiskey or bourbon. Unless I'm eating it straight, it doesn't have to crash through the wall like the Kool Aid Man and start beating my taste buds like a cheap pinata. I want the food to do that. Sriracha provides this almost cutish flavor finish. I picture a miniature cuckoo clock that pushes out a tiny bouquet of taste flowers. That's really all I need from the sauce. I prefer the food do the rest.

Hipsters hyped it up, now they shoot it down. A respectable chili sauce option gets caught in the middle. They do the same with their childhood condiments. They must all be condemned, because we are big boys now.

Reminds me of my first crush. I wouldve given my left nut for the girl I talked to once and still knew nothing about. A year later it made me gag to hear her name.

Leave food out of it... Perverts. Need to be smacked around with a wet meatloaf slathered in glazed ketchup.

Does... Does shitty cooking count as eggs in the morning for breakfast too? :(

Because seriously, crack an egg on the frying pan, and drizzle some sriracha over it, then flip that bitch, and holy tastebud loving hell, you've easily got tasty eggs for breakfast in the morning

I have friends who call it Rooster sauce because they cannot pronounce siracha, which is a pretty common name for it in Los Angeles

I don't know about dipping the meat from pho into the sauce but my mumma' has always told me to just squirt the sucker into the soup and give it a little dye of red for a little extra bite and with that the combination of hoisin sauce it gives the soup the adequate taste I require when I come home for weekends at Uni.

I'm a gook. I may be an expert on this.

Sorry son, but I'm the Vietnamese one here. You think I haven't been called such derogative terms before. Why would Korean mums make Pho anyway?
I don't know shit about Koreans except they spawn such vile sounds namingly K-Pop.
