Why do people dislike Tabasco sauce?

[Anonymous No.17567753]

Da bomb is completely fucking useless. A little dab will pollute the whole dish with its spiciness, but it's not good spiciness. It's just chemical capsaicin spread throughout

[Anonymous No.17567763]

>>17567753
This, it has a nasty chemical taste to it. You can achieve the same with Dave's which has similar issues, but not as pronounced

[Anonymous No.17567770]

this sauce is both wicked spicy and flavorful, it's the spiciest I've ever had that didn't taste like shit

[Anonymous No.17567777]

How on earth can you like that shit?
It straight up tastes like aspirin and grass clippings.
Just eat a mouth full of those and then smash your tongue in a curling iron, it's the same sensation.

>All vinegar, no pepper. Tabasco is far too vinegar forward.
The reason people say this is that Tabasco uses a fermented red pepper mash, which is sour on it's own. This combined with it's vinegar base causes tastelets who can't differentiate the vinegar from the mash to complain that it's all vinegar.

I make my own sometimes from ghost pepper plants. Capsaicin increases the stomach lining's mucus flow, blocking 93 percent of the damage expected from alcohol, among other things, and also heals ulcers.

I always tasted a good amount of pepper in Tabasco. The main thing I like about it is the fermented flavor is pretty unique, I can't think of any other fermented hot sauces. It works really well on fatty food that benefits from the vinegar, but it's more like an ingredient used to complement a dish rather than a flavorful sauce to slather on everything.

[Anonymous No.17570255]

>>17568806
The fermentation produces lactic acid.

[Anonymous No.17570256]

I really like this one. It's not too spicy and tastes good on anything I try it with. Never really seen anyone else mention it though.

[Anonymous No.17570270]

>>17568765
Sure that and the fact that that vinegar base is ~80% of the product
While it is not all vinegar, you gotta admit that 4/5ths vinegar is quite vinegary.

Pretty much every hot sauce is fermented.

[Anonymous No.17570293]

>>17570281
No they're not. Most of them are just blended and bottled. Unless you're counting the vinegar as an ingredient which is fermented, but that's not the same thing as Tabasco fermenting their peppers in a barrel for a few years. If you have proof that says I'm wrong I'll take a look at it though.

[Anonymous No.17570304]

You know, if you really want fermented hot sauce, it's not the most complicated thing to make on your own. Would recommend, it's a fun hobby to grow your own peppers and ferment them.

Pic related is my favorite, if it counts. I like La Costeña's green habanero sauce as well.

Local monks near my town make this, it's one of the better sauces I've had. Nothing terribly special to the recipe, but its fresh and quite a bit thicker than most sauces

They don't taste fermented much to me like Tabasco does though so I'm guessing they don't do it as long. I like the flavor from a long fermentation and wished more food products would use it.
