i'm a huge fan of this - it turns mediocre homemade food and leftovers into a taste sensation:

i'm not huge fan of really hot hot sauces - i prefer flavor to heat. i've been buying this by the case recently. it's not crazy hot - on par with cholula perhaps - but it packs so much flavor. it's only $2 a bottle at trader joe's:

Nice suggestions! I'm simple. Plain ol' sriracha is wonderful. Especially on Pho.
 
Rather dull as well, but I'm a sucker for quality worcestershire sauce. Goes so well on a variety of things, and also mixes well into many spreads and dips! :D

+1 worchestashoostashire sauce! I'm good with horseradish myself, love getting that kick in the sinuses :D For extra heat I'm satisfied with a dash or two of 100k+ SHU cayenne
 
These are lush

Put two of these cubes in a large mug with hot water and you have yourself a ghetto soup.

Asides from that, you can't beat old fashioned tabasco.

LOL! Yes that would produce a very ghetto, and very salty broth. Well done. <3
 
Persimmon Vinegar-Add fresh Chili Pequin and you're set with a hot and sauce sauce with a hint of dank sweetness!

it is pretty much just garlic, olive oil, vinegar, salt and pepper but it tastes delicious on pretty much anything.
 
I am a fan of Tabasco, and I really love it on eggs and chicken. And garlic butter sauce for fish and crab is amazing, but I don't think that comes packaged.
 
Personally I prefer cholula I have that stuff on everything. Tabasco jus doesn't do it for me, yeah it's hot but not much else. Cholula is made with a selection of chillies and peppers that are close relatives of the peach, making it more sweeter and flavoursome. One of my own "homemade sauces" is; any good soy sauce, cholula or nandos hot sauce, lime juice and spring onions. It's a marinade, dip or a cookin sauce!
 
yep - i find tabasco very one-dimensional.

this stuff is mainly for seafood but you can put it on more or less anything really.

MSG; you can add it to any meal and it'll work. Weirdly it doesn't taste like anything on its own, but when you add it to rice something magical happens.

I like this Franks Red Hot 'Sweet Chili' on a number of things. Its a brake away from the ethnic sheeit merchandisers introduce you to in Florida...

Wickles. Wicked Pickles that make everything taste better. :)
I use the relish as my secret ingredient in things like egg salad or tuna salad....they're divine with jalapeños on beer brats. Nommmmmm
