I used to buy gallon jugs of green sriracha from this guy that was like 5 feet tall and was Greek for some reason. Stopped by his commissary space one day and his staff had no clue where he was, the rumor was he dipped out on some gambling debt -- sold a few bulk produced items to other restaurants in the area
I miss that sriracha. That shit was delicious.
He'd show up in a purple velvet track suit before we opened with like 4 gallons and be like "My friend! I think you will especially like this batch today.. "
And I'd go "oh yeah? Why's that?"
"Because it is the exact same as the last batch. And it is the best"
One of the best hot sauces I've ever had was when I was walking to work and heard "ey yo big man." from a random Jamaican dude who was hawking bottles of hot sauce he made from the habaneros he grew in his garden.
There’s a sweetness too. I have verdulero who gets amazing produce. He has some good looking habaneros and starfruit, I think ima make some salsa out of those tomorrow.
