Here’s what they have to say about their new SPICY DYNAMITE Sauce: “Made with a base of vegan mayo, the ingredients to our Spicy Dynamite Sauce read like a list of greatest gastronomic hits: Pickled chili peppers! Sesame oil! Garlic! Horseradish-mustard paste! It all adds up to one superlatively full-flavored profile, with notes of heat, sweet, and umami, and a captivatingly creamy texture. We like it on and with everything , and we mean everything: French fries, chicken nuggets, poke bowls, grilled salmon, roasted broccoli, baked potatoes, burgers, sandwiches, fish tacos, scrambled eggs—seriously, you name it, and this Sauce will work like Dynamite.”

First off, let me just state, this is SERIOUSLY spicy. Let me say that again. This is HOT STUFF.

Absolutely spicy delicious as Bourdain used to say. I really liked it. A vegan mayo with a lot of tasty ingredients that will spice up and add flavor to whatever you put it on. And you can put it on everything. I mean everything.

How spicy is it? Very. I quickly realized how spicy this actually was and that a little went a long way. So use sparingly. I just used a few small dollops of it and got the effect. I even toned it down, mixing it into other things, like yogurt and mayonnaise , ketchup, and liked all these sauce combos I made. TIP: When cold it’s quite thick and a little hard to control squeezing a small amount. So do that carefully lest you get too much coming out of the bottle.

This is a very good sauce with a lot of flavor. Just know that its going to bring the heat.

$2.99 (10 oz bottle)

I would buy it again.
