Heated Discussions Intro

May 29, 2017 1 Comment

My name is Alexis and I’m a hot sauce/spicy food enthusiast who’s been happily ordering a constant supply of products from Chilly Chiles for many years now. I’m passionate about trying every new hot sauce I encounter and also love to cook and discover new dishes, preferably with heat! I’ve been a heat seeker for quite some time, so I can say that I’ve had my fair share of spicy! I’m also quite present in the hot sauce community, both on-and off-line, through my Instagram account @hotsaucebae and on Facebook, where I engage with a number of different hot sauce makers from Canada and the U.S.

During this past Christmas season I worked at the Chilly Chiles Bayshore Shopping Centre location and it was an amazing opportunity to get to know and work with all the staff! I thoroughly enjoyed assisting customers by suggesting products to suit their level of heat enjoyment. All three of our store locations have a wealth of sample bottles for people to try from! One of my goals in this blog is to encourage you to not only discover our online offerings, but also to come see us in person to taste for yourself that we’ve got some of the best hot sauces, marinades, BBQ sauces, and spicy snacks out there!

As the name suggests, this blog will be a platform for “heated discussions” for all things heat and spice! Here I’ll be sharing lots of interesting facts about hot sauces and my culinary experiences with all of the great products available at Chilly Chiles. Some other things you can expect to find here are: information on featured products from both Canada and around the world, hot sauce reviews, a discussion of the health benefits of hot sauces and spicy foods in general, suggestions for different dishes using the hot sauces that we carry, including recipes that are super quick to prepare yet deliver on bold and instant heat, and much more!

I hope you enjoy browsing through our site and checking out all our great products!

Until next time, keep it spicy!

Bee Sting Mango Passion Hot Sauce

February 19, 2020

When you think of a bee sting, you probably think of excruciating pain and the need for medical attention. Well get that thought out of your mind for this sauce as it will definitely not sting you much at all! It will, however, provide you with some fresh tropical flavours.

CaJohns Hydra Hot Sauce

February 11, 2020

CaJohns Hydra Hot Sauce is definitely a force to be reckoned with! Made with 7-Pot Primo chilies, it’s got a fresh heat that you’d expect to get from this brand. Hydra is in fact a very pepper-forward sauce, meaning that much of the flavour comes from the main pepper itself.

Heartbreaking Dawns Cauterizer

February 04, 2020

The flavour profile of Cauterizer is fruity, tangy, sweet, and savoury. Trinidad Scorpion peppers bring a solid, blazing heat and fruity flavour, with the cider vinegar preserving the sauce while adding some sour notes. Apricot preserves, blueberries, and honey...

Great taste everyone can enjoy

It's a delicious sauce, not super hot so anyone can enjoy it. Its my default sauce if I have people over. It's well worth the price.

Also I strongly recommend this store, this was my 9th order form them, delivery is quick, service is awesome.

Very fast shipping; great hot sauce

Like the review title says, the hot sauce I ordered arrived very quickly and I'm really pleased with the product. I'm new to the hot sauce thing, and this was recommended by a friend. 1542 has great flavour and a nice amount of heat. So far, I've enjoyed it with eggs, cheese sandwiches, and vegetarian black bean quesadillas, and it complements those nicely. I'll definitely order from Chilly Chiles again. Glad to support an Ottawa business since I grew up there.

Great quality

Pineapple Habanero was a definite first place in flavour/aroma. Not spicy personally, but a good flavoured kick that would go well with fajitas or stir fry ! The Aardvark is pretty good too, best paired with potatoes or anything you’d put ketchup on! The ginger I have yet to really dabble with as it’s pretty runny and overall very strong tasting.

Awesome sauce

Speedy shipping and awesome products, very pleased!

Great flavour. Really REALLY spicy

Great ramens. Easy recipe; 5 minutes in boiling water, drain, add back to the pot, add the sauce, mix and add the other packet on top. Mouth starts burning immediately and will last a long time, great flavour though.
