Hot Sauce Fun Fact - Fun Ideas for Hot Sauce
5 Ways You Probably Never Thought to Use Hot Sauce from the Food Network
1) In Caramel Sauce:
Yep, you read that right. A little bit of Sriracha is the perfect addition to any homemade caramel sauce. Simply stir it in at the end, after your sugar has caramelized and you’ve added your cream. Whether you drizzle it over popcorn or use it as a topping for ice cream, this sweet-and-fiery sauce will completely change your mind about what a dessert should be!
2) In Waffle Batter:
When you think “spicy chicken and waffles” you might assume that the hot sauce is added to the maple syrup (which, for the record, would be delicious as well) but, for this recipe, it’s the secret ingredient in the waffle batter. Genius!
3) In Cocktails:
There’s something truly magical about an ice-cold drink that’s laced with just a little bit of spicy heat. Choose a milder green hot sauce for this cocktail and you’ll have the perfect balance since Bobby incorporates some fresh Serrano chile pepper as well.
4) In Deviled Eggs:
It’s not easy to improve on a classic like deviled eggs but you’ll find that the addition of a few dashes of hot sauce will make this version into your new favorite.
5) In Honey Sauce:
If you haven’t hopped on the hot honey bandwagon yet, this is your chance. It is very easy to make your own from just honey, butter, hot sauce and some spices. You’ll find that this sauce is great for more than just fried chicken — make sure you try it with cheese, too.
