Certain things just seem to make our lives more interesting. I'm talking about things like surprise birthday parties, winning lottery tickets and good hot sauce. Hopefully scientists will one day discover the means to reliably mass-produce a combination of all three. So long as such an ambition remains safely within the realm of fantasy the hard truth is that the only option we can genuinely count on any given day of the year is having a full bottle of good hot sauce ready in the kitchen. For the past several months I have been trying a relatively new brand of hot sauce known as Pete's Hydrohot. This wouldn't merit a full blown article on bilberrybrian.com if it weren't for the Scotch Bonnet and Hobanero peppers used in Pete's Hydrohot being grown hydroponically. Beyond this exciting fact it's also worth noting that Pete's Hydrohot turned out to taste great and raise my expectations of what a hot sauce should taste like.
Unfortunately finding that “good” bottle of hot sauce is easier said than done. Any reasonably sized grocery store will have no less than several dozen brands of hot sauce. This all important decision is further complicated once you factor in that many of these brands have a flavor akin to taking a tall shot of vinegar before chasing it down with a bite into a cayenne pepper. What really matters here is not which bottle looks cool or has the flashiest sticker. We want to find the bottle of hot sauce that is most capable of making good food taste great. That being said, let's take a closer look at what Pete's Hydrohot has to offer the hot sauce connoisseur.
