A gift of the gods .

 

Seriously, it is a chili sauce which is available in Asian markets and the

Asian foods section of many supermarkets. It has the look and consistency of

ketchup, but is made from chiles, vinegar, garlic, salt and sugar. The brand

in my cupboard is called Tuong ot Sriracha and comes in a transparent plastic

bottle with a green dispenser top. It would be great in any dish in which

you're looking for a sweet and spicy-hot flavor.

Thanks for clarifying the sauce. I thought it could have been some kind of

Vietnamese or Thai sauce.

I believe that it is minced garlic in red chile oil or minced garlic with

with red chiles in oil.They serve it in chinese restaurants when I request

hot sauce and you can buy it in oriental food stores.

I just recently bought the book " The Asian Grocery Store Demystified " by

Linda Bladholm. I love it! I now know what all those little bottle were

when ever I go to my local store. I like the fact that she describes how

some examples of the packaging look and gives brand names!

 

Here's her description:

 

 

First made in the seaside town of Sriacha in Southern Thailand, it is a

mixture of chili, tomato, salt, garlic, sugar and vinegar with a bright red

color and the consistency of ketchup. It makes a good all-purpose chili

sauce and table condiment. Sold in 17 and 24 oz plastic squeeze bottles

with green caps and a rooster logo, made by Huy Fong Foods, Inc., in

California, following the original Thai formula. Imported brands include D

& D Gold and Shark Sriacha.
