re: Sriracha uses and popularity.

I've been using Sriracha for years on just about everything. If I want to add a kick, I add Sriracha. Never thought of the mixing with mayo idea, but I did almost use it in my bloody mary this weekend.
I think I discovered this one at a food truck about a year or so ago. I love it for when I don't want to use Sriracha

Use it on just about anything, especially pizza, soups, and in sauces

Probably because of the internet and food message boards. I'd never used it until I started reading food message boards.
It's great in ramen!

I don't know about other people but I use it because it doesn't carry as much vinegar taste as other hot sauces. I use a lot of it.
Sometimes I squirt some on rice if the gravy is too bland. Also use it in a lot of different marinades.

agreed on the vinegar issue. it adds flavor, instead of changing flavor in my opinion. the heavy vinegar taste in some really does change the dish where as this just kicks it up.

It blew my mind to find out that the same company that makes Sriacha makes Sambal Oelek. Is that common knowledge or am I just an idiot?
Here's a great profile of the guy who introduced the sauce to the U.S.

It's really good for chasing tequila shots. Or so I hear.

Goes great in tomato based sauces actually. Love it in my spaghetti.
Also, the spicy mayo you find at sushi restaurants is just mayo, sriracha and masago. Simple but delicious.

I keep a bottle of it just as it comes from the store and then I take another of it and mix it half and half with mayo
I do the same. It's great with fresh yellowfin tuna, sandwiches, fried seafood, etc.

Yeah for real. Feel like I stepped back into 2005.
and yes the reason it's exploded in popularity is 1) the Vietnamese/pho boom, and 2) because its delicious

Funny how people bash ketchup as a condiment but siracha is held in such high regard
Anyway, I take a half empty squeeze bottle of mayo. Fill a quarter of it with siracha. A few teaspoons of honey. They I'll roast a cloves of garlic in a bit olive oil and s&p. Once it's done I'll mash them up really good and add to the bottle. Shake it up really good and let it sit overnight. Great on burgers amongst other things

I'm just taking notice due to a recent surge in popularity, as I have never seen it mentioned on this board before. I have seen it highlighted most frequently on cooking shows and a new potato chip flavor based on the sauces popularity. So for the indignant asses who are so judgmental because I'm not privy to the historical widespread popularity of the sauce,
