Dawson’s Hot Sauce always continues to amaze me with its unique hot sauces. Sichuan Ghost Pepper Sauce is no exception.
This hot sauce packs a double punch of spice with ghost peppers and Sichuan peppercorns. Both combined create an ultimate spicy pepper sauce with a long-lasting burn.
If you’re looking for a unique, super hot sauce, Dawson’s Sichuan Ghost Pepper Sauce is for you.
Ontario Red Crimson Hot Sauce by Rootham’s Gourmet is a Sriracha-style sauce made with locally grown ingredients. This hot sauce is great for those who prefer the mild side of the spicy life. There is not too much heat but plenty of flavour.
With a consistency similar to ketchup, Red Crimson is great for both coating and dipping. I especially enjoyed this one with some carrots and celery.
Starless is a smoky mole sauce made by Hurt Berry Farm. It is dark, chocolatey, and just a little sweet.
Mole pairs well with chicken, Mexican food, scrambled eggs, rumour has it, even ice cream!
This hot sauce is made with a complex list of ingredients including 3 types of mushrooms which give it a rich and earthy flavour.
Smoky Chipotle by Supernova Hot Sauces is a smoky and tangy thin hot sauce that pairs well with many North American staples. It is not very hot but does a good job of adding a pleasant zip to your meal.
You can find it in most big-name grocery stores across the country. If you’re looking for something cheap and easy, this might be the hot sauce for you.
Sunny by Tasty Heat’s hot sauce is a Habanero and Ghost pepper-based hot sauce made in Winnipeg, Manitoba. It has a sweet, fiery scent and a sharp spicy heat. The warm spice blend used in this hot sauce somewhat limits its application. Nevertheless, this is a great spicy hot sauce that is sure to set your tongue on fire.
Peppers and Pickles from The Hot Sauce Co is great for peak summertime grilling. Every burger needs a bit of relish and for those of you who like it spicy, this is the perfect condiment for the occasion.
This hot sauce is tangy, chunky, crunchy, and even has a bit of heat to it. I’ve been enjoying this on sandwiches, sausages, hamburgers, and wraps. If you like relish but wish it was a little spicier, this is the perfect hot sauce for you.
I found a bottle of Habanero sauce by Ruthless Hot Sauce at a Farmboy in Kingston, Ontario. It was the only one on the shelf made in Canada so I picked one up to try.
This is an onion and carrot-based hot sauce that tastes quite a bit like mulligatawny soup.
It is not very spicy and has a somewhat bland, watery taste. While it doesn’t taste bad, it is definitely not on my list of favourite hot sauces.
Front St Heat claims to be Canada’s premium hot sauce, but is it true? Maybe if you’re only comparing grocery store hot sauces. While Front St Heat and Fire are both pretty decent sauces, I don’t think they can compete with many of the amazing hot sauce makers in Canada.
Don’t get me wrong, Front St Heat and Fire both taste pretty darn good. They just fall into a different category for me. Front St Heat is more of a spicy pizza sauce or a dipper. Front St Fire is closer to a BBQ sauce or a great marinade.
Melinda’s Hot Sauce as been a common element in my spicy journey through life. When I was younger, Melinda’s was the first hot sauce at the grocery store that wasn’t Frank’s or Tabasco. Naturally, I was really excited when I found out they made a Scorpion Pepper Sauce.
It has that classic Melinda’s flavour but with the sharp sting of the scorpion pepper. You definitely won’t be disappointed if you love incredibly hot sauces that don’t make you keel over and convulse.
I first heard about Local Talent Hot Sauce from a post on a Facebook Group. Something about the image from the post (below) really made me want to try their sauces. I looked them up and found out they were from Toronto so I placed an order as fast as I could.
I ordered one of each of their sauces and when the box came I immediately tried the Scotch Bonnet sauce. All I can say is wow! This hot sauce has everything I could ever ask for in a hot sauce, great flavour, and fantastic heat level. I finished almost half of the bottle on my first tasting so I had to rush this article.
