Hot Hot Hot

From barbecue to curry, this is the place to find heat: dipping sauces, salsas, marinades, curry pastes, relishes and rubs. Each is introduced with a little history and serving suggestions and is rated on a heat scale. The book's introduction defines the various types of sauces and chapters are organized geographically and inclusive of the world. The last chapter features dishes using the sauces. Appendices include mail order sources from throughout the U.S. and the world and the web. This is an everything you ever wanted to know -- and more -- book.

History, recipes and details of all hot sauces around !

If, like me, you get through dozens of bottles of hot sauce a week, you might be interested in this tome. As well as listing virtually every hot sauce on the planet (this takes up half the book !), it gives recipes of how to make your own copies of well known sauces (from Tabasco style hot sauce to Jamaican super hot). It also gives useful recipes for barbeque style sauces (I can recommend the smokey chipotle sauce recipe, it's GREAT on ribs), and gives suppliers details and a few URLs for those who can't locate the ingredients they need.All in all, a great book, but would have benefitted from a few more pics and a dash more colour.
