Sir Racha hot sauce has added a new twist to its range, introducing a mildly punchy sauce that the company says is the first of its kind to be made in Australia.

The original hot sauce is made from sun-ripened Australian jalapenos fermented with onion and garlic to distinguish natural sugars. It is then blended with vinegar to give it a “sour-y tang”. The sauce offers 2.6 calories, zero grams of fat and only 23mg of sodium per serve.

Eric Robinson, hot sauce development officer at Sir Racha, said that there is nothing better than a sauce you can use liberally on everything. “It’s sweet, salty, sour and has that little bit of punch. With no added sugar, it really is a pantry staple.”

Sir Racha is a healthy, all-natural product that supports Australian farmers & families.
