Lately I've been trying to expand my palette and tolerance for hot sauces.

I've been a fan of sriracha and ketchup for awhile and after watching this podcast have decided to try some new sauces.

I ordered a bottle of this recently.. don't know the Scoville ratings but I mostly ordered because of the bottle..

It's pretty hot to my taste although it seemed to wear off pretty fast.. tastes a bit like Tabasco

I also ordered a bottle of the "Hot Ones" hot sauce .. will report back once I have tried it.

Whoa.. this seems really unnecessary 9 million Scolville!!

That sauce is worth it for the bottle.

The Amazon answered question section points to: Blair's Guinness World Record holding 16 Million capsaicin crystals.

Company food that nobody can mess up: http://www.homemadeitaliancooking.com/s ... ff-pastry/. Tonight I made two individual servings with lemon dill white sauce instead of the recipe's sauce and a sauteed onion in the spinach filling. The minute I was ready to take the Wellingtons out of the oven the burner element broke and started arcing. That was fun!

New Dragon Breath Chili Pepper could cause a life-threatening anaphylactic shock if consumed and measures 2.48m on the Scoville scale.

What's the use of heat in a sauce if it's an ordeal to taste? Tabasco sauce, green chili sauce, maybe some red chile sauce for enchiladas and other Mexican food.

Perhaps it’s a myth but I recall once hearing that the point of hot sauce was to make you sweat so you’d cool offf in hot climates .. I will a test that at least to some degree it helps my sinuses.

If you like hot try one of these:

Some friends from work pitched in and got one of these, we broke it into pieces about the size of a quarter and it still burned like a hot coal!

Best food purchase this year was chili garlic sauce. I never knew what I was missing. The last red pepper flakes I bought are either weak or my taste buds are too aged. No matter how many I put on pizza it never tasted spicy. Problem solved with chili garlic sauce which is also great in pasta salad.

Anyway, glad you are in the house again, Flip. Hope you stay a while.
