ReplyDeleteMy favorite spicy ingredient is hands down...siracha hot sauce!
ReplyDeleteHello!
ReplyDeleteHaving been afraid of hot-spicy for a long time, my love for Thai and Indian food has helped me learn to enjoy (and perhaps get a little desensitized to) spicier foods.
Of the spicy ingredients I've worked with, I'd have to say chipotle peppers are my favorite - I'm a sucker for anything smoked.
It might not be as much fun as some of the other items listed here, but I love crushed red pepper flakes. They're an easy way to spice up any dish.
ReplyDeleteI have so many! My top two would be chili pepper flakes and Siracha sauce! Mmmm!

ReplyDeleteOoh, red curry and lots of it. I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this book. Mine has every single page porcupined. It's pretty funny. Of course, I always TRIPLE the spices, so my answer should probably just be spice. LOL

ReplyDeleteThanks for the giveaway!

(sorry, I meant to put my name.)
Siracha hot sauce is awfully good and we love it, but good old Texas Pete is sooo good!
ReplyDeleteginger
ReplyDeleteJalapenos - because I have so many pleasant memories associated with foods that include them. Also, black pepper. Small amounts make savoury dishes taste better and large amounts make them seem hot.
ReplyDeleteChili Garlic Sauce! I love that stuff.
ReplyDeletesriracha or frank's - depends on what i'm eating :)
ReplyDeletei follow you on twitter!
ReplyDeletei tweeted the contest

ReplyDeleteIt's definitely not the hottest hot sauce, but I love the flavor of Texas Pete
ReplyDeletesriracha!
ReplyDeletei like chipotle. :-) the smokiness makes me happy.
ReplyDeleteCrushed red pepper flakes! You can use them in anything (and I do!!!). You can really build the heat without changing the flavor of the food.

ReplyDeleteand I'm subscribed- yay!

ReplyDeletei just use the basic tobasco sauce. I haven't really experimented with spicy much b/c we like things a bit more on the mild side :)
ReplyDeleteMy bottle of sriracha gets used for everything. Soups, veggies, rice, anything and everything I cover in sriracha.

ReplyDeleteI'm following you on twitter (@thevegancrew)!
ReplyDeleteMy father-in-law's homemade sauce from Bhut Jalokia. Even though it's one of the hottest peppers on the planet, when cooked down, it's diffused into an amazing tasting -- but still rather spicy -- sauce. Great on most anything.

ReplyDeleteAnd I follow you on Twitter :-)
ReplyDeleteDefinitely sriracha, I'm addicted to it.
ReplyDeleteI have linked on my blog!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite hot condiment is Garlic Chili Sauce. It adds the right spicy bite to dishes from every Asian cuisine, Thai, Vietnamese, Chinese,Indian,Korean but also plays well with other cuisines such as Cajun and Belgian "Samaurai" sauce.
ReplyDeleteI can't pick out just one ingredient, but I love me a good spicy peanut sauce! YUMMMMMMM
ReplyDeleteMy favorite spicy food is red pepper flakes. I like to put them on pizzas. But I also like all sorts of hot sauce, chipotle peppers and so on. I love spicy food!
ReplyDeleteRoasted Hatch green chiles!
ReplyDeleteIt's difficult to choose one or to determine what's hot as opposed to spicy. My mother has an eastern (US) palate and to her, things like raw garlic or ginger strike her as hot and spicy. I go through flavor moods and I prefer certain spices on certain dishes, like sriracha in my tofu scramble, or red pepper flakes in my Fra Diablo sauce. Smoky hot moods lean toward chipotle and hot paprika (the latter on "meatloaf" type dishes, especially). But over all, I love how thinly sliced raw garlic can give my taste buds a run for the money and a yen for the water glass.
ReplyDelete-- Amy, the RR cookbook fan
I love, love, love homegrown chiles. Especially the milder ones like jalapenos and poblanos.
