You probably already know, but just in case—hot sauces are made from chilli peppers and chilli pepper extracts, and can be eaten as a dip or added to meals. Designed to add both flavour and heat, they’re often not just about raw power. Even though ours are extremely hot, they are designed with quality in mind. Therefore, you’ll also find that they have deep, rich, and truly delicious flavours to accompany the fearsome heat they offer.
You’d be forgiven for assuming they were exactly the same thing. But there is a subtle difference; one that affects the final product.
A hot sauce is made from the seed casing and the fleshy ribs inside the chilli pepper. These parts contain the highest concentrations of capsaicin—the substance in a chilli pepper that is responsible for the heat.
Chilli sauce, on the other hand, contains the flesh of the fruit. This doesn’t mean it will be less spicy, but it does often mean it will have a thicker texture and be more flavoursome.
Though the difference is subtle, each product has distinct qualities and different potential uses.
You can basically use a hot sauce however you’d like—just keep away from people’s eyes!
In most cases, a hot sauce will either be used to add flavour and heat to a dish, or as a standalone dip. For instance, a habanero sauce can be used to make a fiery salsa. But there’s no right or wrong way to use a hot sauce, so be creative and push yourself to the limit!
Hot sauces have a good shelf life. Once opened, they can survive for around six months outside of the refrigerator. Inside, they have an extremely long lifespan, but it’s likely you’ll never find out, as you won’t be able to resist eating it all.
In any case, check individual products for their “use by” date.
