Sriracha sauce is a type of hot sauce made from a base of chilli paste,distilled vinegar,sugar and some salt.
This sauce is a Thai style kinda sauce that goes down well with anything from seafood,burgers,soups,eggs to name but a few.
I have tried recreating sriracha sauce before,however I think I finally struck the right balance of the sugar vinegar and spices.I personally love my sriracha with subtle bit more heat to it.
This recipe makes for a smooth sweet and delicious sauce.
However you can always customize the sauce to suit your own palate,taste your sauces and make changes,some prefer it more vinegary some like it sweet you are your own boss when it comes to this.
