Anyone who reads FoxValleyFoodie.com for any length of time quickly sees that I’m not afraid to spice up a dish. However, hot sauce isn’t added just for heat, it is an invaluable flavor component as well. El Yucateco® as long been one of my favorite hot sauces, and I have written about them frequently (Spicy Honey Glazed Turkey, & Jamaican Black Bean Soup are two of my favorite examples).
I use El Yucateco® frequently in recipes because their sauce isn’t simply “hot”, rather it is exceptionally crafted to be rich and flavorful. It can really add a lot of depth to your dishes.
El Yucateco® Black Label Reserve is my favorite variety in their lineup. It boasts a rich smoky flavor that is the key ingredient to this Smoky and Creamy Taco Pasta Salad. Its unique flavor adds an earthy smoke flavor without the sweetness found in a chipotle sauce. It brings the perfect amount of heat without adding an overpowering smoke taste.
It is perfect for adding flavor to your favorite meals at home like this taco pasta salad recipe, or if you are like me, pack it on the go to amp up the flavor at your next music festival!
Right now, to celebrate the beginning of summer music season, El Yucateco® has a great coupon offer for you! Print this $1.00 off coupon to try their hot sauce for yourself!
I found El Yucateco® Black Label Reserve and Red Habanero Hot Sauce at Walmart in the Hispanic Food section. Be sure to pick some up next time you are there!
