Shark brand. This is our favorite sriracha sauce because it's one of the original classics that's been sold for years in Thailand. Try it in our recipe for Panko Shrimpcakes with Chile-Lime Sauce. Also see a street vendor in Thailand using sri racha to make Pad Thai. Shark brand is made in the Sriracha region of Thailand. It's the real thing--what the Thai people eat--and it's all natural without preservatives or artificial colors. Shark brand has a good mix of chile heat, and sugar/garlic/vinegar overtones to make it tangy and a bit sweet.
As of February 2010 we now have medium flavor, in addition to "Strong" which is what we've offered for years.
Packed in a nice glass bottle. Shark is far superior to the plastic bottle stuff which includes preservatives and has an unnatural heavy pepper taste.
Medium flavor has the taste of Thai chiles but low heat. Strong offers bold chile heat, somewhat like tabasco, but tangy and a bit sweet too. Use plenty of it. The large glass bottle is a generous amount. All Natural. Ingredients: chile, water, sugar, garlic, salt, vinegar. Product of Thailand.

ABC brand. Made in Indonesia. We have offered premium quality ABC Brand Kecap Manis for a few years, and now we're pleased offer Extra Hot sauce. This is called "sambal" sauce, and it's remarkably similar to Thai sriracha sauce so we've grouped this with our sriracha sauces. ABC Brand is one of the oldest, most reliable and consistent high quality sauce producers exporting from Indonesia. This sauce has a strong, mature, delightful chile heat and it's a bit thicker than ketchup. Try it and it may become your favorite sriracha sauce. Packed in a glass bottle. Ingredients: chile, sugar, water, salt, garlic, starch, acetic acid, sodium benzoate. Product of Indonesia.

Huy Fong brand. Made in the United States, this is the brand which has become popular and served all over the country. This sauce is very strong and heavy to chile flavor, a bit like eating a high-heat raw chile pepper. Despite the popularity of this brand, it's not what a Thai person might think is sriracha sauce. The variety of chile used gives the flavor a very deep, hot pepper taste. The flavor is overwhelming in our opinion and might take away the flavor of any accompanying food. If you want very high heat then this is the choice for you. Packed in a plastic squeeze bottle. Ingredients: chile, sugar, garlic, salt, distilled vinegar, potassium sorbate and sodium bisulfite as preservatives, and xanthan gum.
