CaterpillarGirl sriracha hot chili sauce. Nov 6, 2008 10:35 AM Is there anyone else out there besides me who is obsessed with this chili sauce? I have been using the Huy fong sriracha hot chili sauce or "rooster" sauce for almost 6 years now. I put it on everything, and have noticed that some chain grocery stores are now carrying it on the asian food aisle. I still get mine at the mom and pop asian markets, its cheaper that way and i am supporting local businesses. I use it for sauces, on salads, pizza, dip fries in...........its amazing stuff.
Jude C Taiwanese Wu Xiang Rou (Sweet Stewed Pork Belly) Aug 7, 2008 6:17 PM My Taiwanese mamma makes this for me every time I go home to visit, because I love it so much :D It's super easy and super tasty, and who cares about fat grams, anyway? (Sorry about the vague ingredient measurements. Everything I learn from family members, I learn without measuring cups or spoons.) * Don't get grossed out by the phrase "pork belly." American-style bacon is made from pork belly. This is the same thing, just not cured and bacon-flavored.
