Alrighty - it's R&D time here for me - made a trip to a huge international market - Jungle Jim's to see what was what. El Yucateca is one of my go-to's for a sauce that I don't make. This one is pretty good and a decent heat though I wouldn't call it hot, but it is spicy. It was a wonderful addition to a batch of Carnitas (pic8.co) I made a bit ago (I'll make a different post), and was pretty good with fried chicken. I would wager this would be a killer sauce on enchiladas, as well. Maybe 200k-250k SHU (edit: it's a builder so as you go, I would say it could be closer to 350k)

Ingredients:

Water; Habanero Peppers; Tomato Paste; Sugar Cane; Salt; Natural Ghost Pepper Extract; Spices and Coloring (Paprika); Acetic Acid (pH conrtol); Lemon Juice; Xantham Gum; Gellan Gum (stabilizer); Natural Flavoring (carmelized onion); and Soduium Benzoate (preservative).

There are a few things in here that I do not add (extract, acetic acid, xantham, gellan, or benzoate), but then again, I only stick with making gourmet small-batch - no production bullshit to consider).

Now, on to the other featured bottle - a newer release from Da Bomb:

I don't have a write-up for this one. I threw this bottle out after my first go with it. Da Bomb is just bitter - all of it. Don't bother with any of it unless you're going to use it as addition to another sauce.

haven't tried it - another Yucateca I keep around is their Picante Negra
