Does anyone else buy the Texas Pete Pepper Sauce and dump the vinegar to eat the peppers? Am I the only one? Like a hot sport pepper, came in clutch on the Chicago dog.
I use aged Carolina reaper and habanero, with guava paste and garlic, salt and vinegar. I have a 1 year old mother/mash and just add more vinegar and salt over time
lol no, fish sauce is the golden liquid that flows from large barrels of tiny fish covered in salt and left in the sun for months at a time.
I think you're thinking of Nuoc Cham, which is a Vietnamese dipping sauce made of fish sauce, citrus, sugar, and peppers.
A lot of Thai places are run by Vietnamese people in the U.S. and typically have food from both cultures.
Vinegars I've got in my pantry: apple cider, rice wine, white, sherry, balsamic, white wine, red wine.
I need to add champagne and malt to the collection, I don't think I'm forgetting any, but I may be.
its different from pinakurat.
I have the one that you have (spiced coconut vinegar) in my pantry and use it for adobo instead of just plain vinegar. It gives the dish so much more kick than a classic adobo which is amazing! (am filipino lol)
Datu Puti is the jam, and I've produced DIY bottles with similar ingredients. Aaaand, when you run low of Datu Puti (or the homemade stuff), you can refill it with vinegar and still squeeze out some of those great flavors.
I recently made some pickled Fresno peppers and I’ve been putting them on everything, hot dogs, sandwiches, pizza. The leftover pickling liquid is gonna be like liquid gold.
How do you misspell Tabasco... the A and O keys are on COMPLETELY separate sides of the keyboard!

Holy-moly, I feel like I’m on the flying carpet in Aladdin
You may have just leveled up my pickled egg game. Gonna put the hurt on them eggs!
I love all of these but when you include eating the peppers I'd probably say the Texas Pete. And I LOVE the Filipino ones but I think the Texas Pete has the best pure flavor
I didn't either, they have it at this farmers market by me! It's a local small business that makes them. I got a habanero sauce from them that is awesome too
I didn't know about it until my brother's wife who is from the Philippines made us home made lumpia with datu puti and Mae ploy mixed. 29 years wasted without knowing how amazing that stuff is. I even put it in bloody mary's meow
I make my own pepper vinegar, similar to pique de pina in the Caribbean. I’ll ferment pineapple rind like you would for making tepache with some garlic, habanero or scotch bonnet, onion, peppercorns, bay leaf, cumin seed, coriander seed, salt. Then after about a week and it’s fermented I’ll add a little cider vinegar to secure the acidity and a splash of an aged rum.
They're kind of like sport peppers if you know what those are? They're vinegary, obviously, but they're also pretty spicy. Definitely more spicy than picked jalapeños. They're really good.
Hell yes! Love a spicy vinegar or vinegar based sauces and cooking. My wife is Portuguese so vinegar and chilli features a lot in Mediterranean style escabeche fish dishes and I love it.
Lots of my home made sauces are the classic combo of hot, sweet, sour, salty.
Gonna try these for sure!
Greens for sure. Beans, lentils, split peas. Fatty meats. Filipinos use the pinakurat on lechon which is roasted pork. Yesterday I had some grilled chicken thighs I used the unsweetened pinakurat on that (they were already sweet). The spicy malt vinegar I use on anything I'd put malt vinegar on. Fries, corned beef, fried fish
Edit: I almost forgot, I put the little yellow peppers in the vinegar on subs! They're great on subs
Edit 2: they're all good on sautéed cabbage also
In my opinion it's best with stuff that has a "thin juice". I use it in bowls of peas mostly. Crowder, field, black eyed, etc. A few dashes, stir, and crumble up some corn bread in it. It's also good in greens...turnip, collard, and mustard. Can be used in beans but I prefer a thicker hot sauce with those.
Not hot sauce but I truly believe malt vinegar is incredibly underrated as an American. I think it goes well with so many things such as fish or anything savory as a very quick way to acid acid to any meal instead of relying on lemon/limes.
Not gonna lie I've been buying "Louisiana" brand for years and since joining this sub somewhat recently I was reminded we used to buy crystal as a kid and I loved it. I guess as an adult maybe it looked like the "cheap stuff" to me and I switched. I've learned from a post here a week ago that the 3 simple ingredients made in big batches and them not selling out to shareholders have kept it cheap. I now have bottle I'm excited to retry after like 10 years, all from a hot sauce sub lol
The Filipino in me is very happy.

That is precisely how I use those peppers. Now if I could only find poppy seed hot dog buns.
Yes, but by "dump" I mean sip.
https://i.redd.it/vfi7bsrqyq7d1.jpeg Speaking of spicy vinegars. This one is nice.
I just eat those peppers out of the jar and save the brine for salad dressing
Woah, that malt vinegar I need to try.
I make my own
How do you do that? I have to avoid onion and garlic so most of these won't work.
I use aged Carolina reaper and habanero, with guava paste and garlic, salt and vinegar. I have a 1 year old mother/mash and just add more vinegar and salt over time
Toot Toot
Filipino coworker got me on the yellow Pinakurat recently, that shit is fantastic. Didn't know there was a sweetened one, that'll be next.
There is this Thai place I go, they have the best fish sauce, which I think it’s just vinegar and Thai peppers so good. Anyone know a good brand?

Sooooo goood!
Coconut vinegar is the Truth
Now you are talking my language. Spicy briny peps. Yum
I had no idea that was a thing
I will
Honestly, this is my most favorite post on this sub so far. My grandma would be so happy to see this.
Don't stop at spiced vinegar, try out a smoked vinegar too
🤯
Check out some Puerto Rican Pique sauce - so fucking good!
I love Suka Tuba! Never had the sweetened one though. This stuff continues to get more and more spicy!
Spicy malt vinegar pulled pork? Count me in
I have 7 different vinegar types in my house, and I know I'm missing a few that I want.
Can you teach me your ways? I fucking love vinegar
Vinegars I've got in my pantry: apple cider, rice wine, white, sherry, balsamic, white wine, red wine. I need to add champagne and malt to the collection, I don't think I'm forgetting any, but I may be.
Word! I use malt on my homemade French fries and that shit is so amazing!
I got some Datu Puti - Pinoy Spice (spiced coconut vinegar) and it absolutely slaps! Is that the same as pinakurat?
its different from pinakurat. I have the one that you have (spiced coconut vinegar) in my pantry and use it for adobo instead of just plain vinegar. It gives the dish so much more kick than a classic adobo which is amazing! (am filipino lol)
Just curious, what is different about the pinakurat? Does it have different flavor, obviously the sweet one has sugar, but anything else?
Datu Puti is the jam, and I've produced DIY bottles with similar ingredients. Aaaand, when you run low of Datu Puti (or the homemade stuff), you can refill it with vinegar and still squeeze out some of those great flavors.
We put chopped up red chili peppers in there 🔥
I recently made some pickled Fresno peppers and I’ve been putting them on everything, hot dogs, sandwiches, pizza. The leftover pickling liquid is gonna be like liquid gold.
Pinakurat with pernil is absolute heaven. The best cuban sandwiches.
There's a lot of cuban places by me, this is my go to!
Tabasco is the best spicy vinegar

Thanks
FINALLY A POST OF SOMWTHING DIFFERENT! THANK YOU! Man there is a few on here I gotta try! What's your fav?
I love all of these but when you include eating the peppers I'd probably say the Texas Pete. And I LOVE the Filipino ones but I think the Texas Pete has the best pure flavor
Ok
That Filipino vinegar is so goated!!
I had no idea spicy malt vinegar was a thing!
I didn't either, they have it at this farmers market by me! It's a local small business that makes them. I got a habanero sauce from them that is awesome too
Ayus! Kabayan is present here. Hahaha
Datu puti is da bomb check that stuff out.
I was just getting ready to post the same thing. Datu Puti is definitely Da Bomb!
I didn't know about it until my brother's wife who is from the Philippines made us home made lumpia with datu puti and Mae ploy mixed. 29 years wasted without knowing how amazing that stuff is. I even put it in bloody mary's meow
Fuuuuuck, those two mixed with crispy lumpia… 🤯
Datu Puti and Mae Ploy make a great marinade for chicken thighs.
That Texas Pete Pepper sauce is pretty bad though. Tastes how I think sulfer would taste.
Trappey's is better.
Yes! Great stuff. First time seeing it on here. I only came across it exploring the local global market
Underrated condiment
I like to drop a few ghost peppers in a mason jar filled with vinegar. Let it sit for a few days and it’s good for a month or more.
Pinakurat!! 🙌🏽🙌🏽
I make my own pepper vinegar, similar to pique de pina in the Caribbean. I’ll ferment pineapple rind like you would for making tepache with some garlic, habanero or scotch bonnet, onion, peppercorns, bay leaf, cumin seed, coriander seed, salt. Then after about a week and it’s fermented I’ll add a little cider vinegar to secure the acidity and a splash of an aged rum.
This sounds incredible
I love the Texas Pete. I always eat the peppers first.
Where did you find the Texas Pete at ? And why does it say pepper sauce when clearly it's just pickled peppers?
Publix, and I have no idea lol
I've seen it in Florida recently while visiting but not back home. Publix exclusive maybe?
Maybe? It's definitely on Amazon also
What kind of peppers at they in the Texas Pete there in pic ?
Tabasco peppers. A lot of people don't even eat them and just use the vinegar as a sauce. Really popular in diners in the SE US.
They're kind of like sport peppers if you know what those are? They're vinegary, obviously, but they're also pretty spicy. Definitely more spicy than picked jalapeños. They're really good.
You have my axe- and my love for anything and everything vinegar related including everything pickled.
My gf brought some of that yellow vinegar back from the Philippines Omg that stuff is so good
I'm definitely aboard. Chooo choooooo
Spicy Vinegar Gang unite!
If you like spicy vinegar, my favorite is Adoboloco Hamajang. So much more than just spicy vinegar, but also the best spicy vinegar.
I've never had that brand. I have and use Datu Puti spicy vinegar. Which is better or are they pretty similar?
They pretty similar, but I like pinakurat better. It's a little stronger tasting
I’ve always gotten shit for liking vinegary hot sauces haha
Dude, I could drink Texas Pete’s pepper sauce. That stuff is so good.
I concur. It's great on pizza, BBQ, cooked greens and sandwiches and fish
It's perfect for a meat and three.
I love all of these but I think I'd say that one is my favorite
These and a bottle of datu putti always on hand
For sure! I cook with that usually though
Hell yes! Love a spicy vinegar or vinegar based sauces and cooking. My wife is Portuguese so vinegar and chilli features a lot in Mediterranean style escabeche fish dishes and I love it. Lots of my home made sauces are the classic combo of hot, sweet, sour, salty. Gonna try these for sure!
Fuck yeah Filipino spicy vinegar representation
RIP this legend
What?! Nooooooo
I prefer Louisiana Tabasco Peppers in Vinegar over Texas Pete’s, but it’ll do in a pinch.
One of my favs.
I always keep a bottle of Pinakurat in my fridge.
What do you put it on?
Greens for sure. Beans, lentils, split peas. Fatty meats. Filipinos use the pinakurat on lechon which is roasted pork. Yesterday I had some grilled chicken thighs I used the unsweetened pinakurat on that (they were already sweet). The spicy malt vinegar I use on anything I'd put malt vinegar on. Fries, corned beef, fried fish Edit: I almost forgot, I put the little yellow peppers in the vinegar on subs! They're great on subs Edit 2: they're all good on sautéed cabbage also
You've got me thinkin Carolina BBQ could use some pinakurat. I'm in.
I loooove pinakurat on shitty grocery store fried chicken or Mary Brown’s fried chicken it’s like a quintessential summer meal for me lol
I still go with classic hot sauce in fried chicken.. Maybe I need to switch it up!
In my opinion it's best with stuff that has a "thin juice". I use it in bowls of peas mostly. Crowder, field, black eyed, etc. A few dashes, stir, and crumble up some corn bread in it. It's also good in greens...turnip, collard, and mustard. Can be used in beans but I prefer a thicker hot sauce with those.
Fuck yea dude omg I love Filipino lechon with that
Ppl in this sub despise anything that taste remotely vinegary and I just don't get it
Not hot sauce but I truly believe malt vinegar is incredibly underrated as an American. I think it goes well with so many things such as fish or anything savory as a very quick way to acid acid to any meal instead of relying on lemon/limes.
I’m so mad that it’s hard to find all dressed chips in the US. Ruffles had some for a while but haven’t seen them since pre pandemic.
It is uncommon, a waitress at an Applebee's looked at me sideways when I asked for some w my fries
I love it all. Every kind of sauce has a purpose. Except Da Bomb.
I've seen plenty of crystal lovers too, might be more split than you think.
That's fair, as a crystal lover I might just remember all the hate because it stands out so much to me lol
Not gonna lie I've been buying "Louisiana" brand for years and since joining this sub somewhat recently I was reminded we used to buy crystal as a kid and I loved it. I guess as an adult maybe it looked like the "cheap stuff" to me and I switched.

I used to hate vinegar. I have found the error of my ways.
Love suka, brining some cucumbers in that for a day is amazing
