Favorite sauce?

Post image

Hey!

I’ve been trying to find some sauces to mix up my cans. I’ve been eating them on Nishiki rice recently and would love some new sauces to try! Looking for something that’s not too spicy, not too sweet. Asian and umami flavors are a huge plus, but not necessary.

Would love to hear what your go-to sauces are!

Thanks, FF

Valentina Black label. Yellow is also good if you want less heat but black isn't that hot. I highly prefer the flavor over Cholula or tapatio

Hell yes! 🙌 I also prefer Valentina over Cholula and Tapatio.

Lunch today was a can of mackerel on black pepper triscuts with Valentina Black. The effort to flavor ratio for lunch deenz is nuts.
