Roland Foods Sriracha Chili Sauce, 17 oz

Yummy

I am very sensitive to ingredients/dishes whose source of spiciness is chilies. The spiciness of the chilies often overwhelms all the other flavors to the point I cannot taste anything else. My daughter is the same way.That being said, if I dial back the amount of chili ingredients in a dish to 1/2 - 1/4 of what is called for in a recipe, the dish is balanced to our taste.Sriracha is an interesting sauce. The basic ingredients of sriracha are chili peppers, vinegar, garlic, sugar, and salt.The recipe used by the various manufacturers of sriracha differ in the percentage of each ingredient used in their recipe.So, the brand of sriracha one prefers is going to be determined by individual taste.Roland Sriracha Chili Sauce was the very first sriracha we tried, and both my daughter and I loved it. When we finished the first bottle, and were unable to buy another locally, we bought - and sampled - several other brands (including the favorite, Huy Fong). At the time, I thought all sriracha sauces were the same. I quickly discovered they are not.To us, there was little difference between the other brands we tried and a bottle of Tabasco. All we could taste was the heat.Roland Sriracha Chili Sauce is the only brand balanced in such a way we are able to discern the entire flavor profile of the sauce.This all to say if you don't like Roland Sriracha and prefer Huy Fong (or one of the other brands) it doesn't mean Roland is a "bad" sriracha and Huy Fong is "good"; it just means your taste buds and brain process the Roland Sriracha's formula in a way that's not pleasing to *you*. Which is fine!But for my daughter and I, Roland Sriracha Chili Sauce is the brand we prefer above all others.

My husband loves this product! It's not too hot and has a slight sweet taste to it. He uses this Sriracha on almost everything. I bought a pack of 6 during Prime Days in July, he has one bottle left. The 6 pack is a great deal considering it's almost $5 at a competing box store. Give it a try, you'll be pleasantly surprised.

The chili flavor is good but spiciness is milder than mild.

It's OK but it's not as good as the more famous brand that comes from California. I thought I'd give it a try. It's decent, not bad, but I will go back to the more famous brand in the future because it has more kick and flavor.

The best yet

I picked this up when the Huy Fong brand started becoming scarce in my local stores. There are a lot of Sriracha sauces out there, and I wasn't impressed by them. When I tried Roland's I got that hot zing from the chili, but there is a more pronounced garlic flavor in the Roland sauce. Which is a good thing! Highly recommended.

If you like garlic this is for you I bought this for spiciness which it did not have one bit.
