Hot sauce tasting notes

A fusion sauce that manages to combine Sichuan pepper with citrus, tahini, ginger, and even bananas! The recipe may seem surprising on paper, but when we tasted it, every ingredient had its role to play.

The orange is energized by the Fatali pepper, the Sichuan pepper adds its floral citrus note, the tahini brings a nutty note while the ginger adds its refreshing kick. The banana, for its part, accentuates the originality of this recipe.

Scoville heat level of the sauce as seen on Hot Ones

Seen on the show Hot Ones in season 29, it is rated at 81,000 on the Scoville scale — enough to warm things up without setting your taste buds on fire (unless you can't handle heat, in which case it's best to avoid it).

This Leopard sauce has been devoured by quite a few celebrities you certainly know. The heat of this recipe has warmed a few mouths!

How to use the Leopard Sichuan Tangerine sauce?

Great on Asian dishes, whether Cantonese rice or stir-fried noodles. It also excels on recipes from other origins, such as Shawarma, ravioli (yes, really), roasted vegetables, beef Wellington, or your chili con quarn.

We recommend tasting this sauce first — the pairings will come to mind immediately!

The brand
