Taste Lab - Ridiculously Hot Sauce (150ml)

For Those Who Laugh in the Face of Sensible Heat Levels.

If you’re the kind of person who reads “extremely hot” as a personal challenge, this bottle was made for you. Ridiculously Hot Pepper Sauce is a full‑throttle flavour bomb built on New Zealand–grown super‑hot chillies, a punchy chilli ferment, and a bold blend of garlic, ginger, and Tom Yum spices. It’s fiery, fragrant, and unapologetically intense — the kind of sauce that turns a simple meal into a story you’ll tell later.

🔥 Heat With Purpose — Not Just Pain

Sure, this sauce hits hard. It’s a 10/10 on the heat scale for a reason. But what makes it special is the balance:

• A deep, savoury chilli ferment
• Bright aromatics from garlic and ginger
• A zingy Tom Yum twist
• A clean, lingering burn that refuses to be ignored

This isn’t a “one‑drop and regret” gimmick sauce. It’s crafted to be seriously hot and seriously tasty.

🌶️ Flavour That Fights Back

The first thing you’ll notice is the aroma — rich, tangy, and full of chilli character. Then comes the flavour: layers of umami, citrusy lift, and a bold chilli backbone. And finally… the heat.
A rising, roaring, “why did I do this to myself?” heat.
But you’ll come back for more. Everyone does.

🍽️ What to Put It On

If it needs fire, this sauce delivers. Try it with:

• Stir‑fries and noodles
• Grilled meats and BBQ
• Dumplings, wings, and loaded fries
• Ramen, pho, and broths
• Pizza (if you’re brave)
• Marinades, dipping sauces, and anything that needs a wake‑up call

A little goes a long way — unless you’re a maniac, in which case, go nuts.

🌱 Crafted in Aotearoa

Made in small batches using NZ‑grown chillies and a 23% chilli ferment, this sauce is built on real ingredients and real heat. No shortcuts. No extracts. Just honest, handcrafted firepower.
