Good Eats>Huy Fong - Sriracha Hot Chili Sauce
icehog3 10:42 PM 02-03-2012
I looked on Google at a few sites, and they seem to agree that it does not need refrigeration because of the preservatives.

Note: while refrigeration isn't required, keeping your bottle in the fridge will help retain color and flavor.

You may be right but I refrigerate it anyway.

In Minnesota? I find that hard to believe :-)

I never refrigerate ketchup. Stays in the pantry. Just an FYI, its safe to leave out. At least, Hunt's and Heinz are okay. I can't speak for all of the ones of which I haven't read the labels.

Yup. It's a preservative filled world. I still refrigerate this as well, though.

Sounds like a different place, than the MN I grew up in, back in the 60s-70s :-)
I have the Lee Kum Kee brand of Sriracha, and like it a lot.
Also Frank's, that sh*t's good on everything :-)

I used to. The GF for some reason doesn't like cold ketchup, so in the pantry it stays. She uses it on way more stuff than I do, so no biggie. I do refrigerate sriracha though.

Me too, but it's because I prefer my ketchup cold.

I don't know anyone that puts in the fridge. I guess you could, but never heard it being done.

I usually put in on my rice or noodles. Pretty much any Asian dish.

Is the Lee Kum Kee brand any different than Huy Fong as far as flavor is concerned?

Just had some turkey and sweet pepper breakfast burritos. Busted the Sriracha on them as usual. Mmmmmm.
I get it in the big bottle. I leave it in the spice cupboard. I go through it fast enough I have never really noticed a degradation of flavor or oxidation.
Then again, I have the palate of a goat.
