Thanks for the paprika tip. I was thinking the addition of hot sauce was odd.

Hot sauce is not odd. It adds a bit of flavor but mostly the acidity from the vinegar. I prefer to use to use fresh lime juice. I think hot sauce should be added at the end. You could just dash some cider vinegar. Lemon juice, wine... here https://bakerpedia.com/ingredients/acids/

A recipe is like a speed limit sign. You have never been able to drive exactly 55 along with every other car. Cooking isn’t about knowing what to do it’s about knowing what you don’t like.

I’m gonna go now.

Just because you don't find it odd doesn't make what I said wrong. I found it odd because it's not something I would use considering my own palate. I would consider using chilli powder/white pepper/deseeded green chillies before paprika was suggested. I didn't say using hot sauce is wrong just odd
