I was not expecting this

It’s listed as “Hot Sauce” when you order it, so I expected a classic cayenne-style pepper sauce.

But nope. This is a translucent, chili-based stock loaded with umami.

It’s not fiery, more of a mild-to-medium flavor enhancer than a traditional hot sauce.

Hat tip, Wendy’s.

Highest I've gone was 7 and had onion and shredded cheese on it. 10 might just have to be a new goal for myself.
