I find most of the Thai brands to be too sweet. I prefer the Huy Fong as it has less sugar (I tried to compare the nutrition facts but the Huy Fong one is a bit BS).
However I find most Asian products in the UK always seem to have crazy amounts of sugar in them which I'm not a huge fan of.
- jefftk 4y ago> the Huy Fong one is a bit BS If you look at nutrition facts for larger containers it's about 9% sugar by weight. (It starts out higher in sugar, but some of that is consumed during fermentation.)
- Matsta 4y agoNice find! Yep I read about fermentation as well. I'm neither a huge fan of sweet or vinegary hot sauces so I usually find Sriracha or Mexican hot sauces (eg. El Yucateco) as my go to's.
- konfusinomicon 4y agoEl Yucateco kutbil-ik xxx hot sauce is my number one. it's so damn hot, and the flavor is unmatched. the black special reserve one is next level too. at this point my cellular makeup is roughly 20% habanero because of them.
- syedkarim 4y agoHuy Fong makes a garlic chili sauce, which appears to be Sriracha, but without any sugar at all. I think the garlic chili sauce comes off the same line, but gets bottled before the sugar is added.
- devilbunny 4y agoTheir chili garlic sauce is not pureed. Otherwise, yes, it's their sriracha without the sugar. I have a foodservice jar of the stuff. I'll run out by 2030 or so.
