How the Tabasco Factory Makes 700000 Bottles of Hot Sauce a Day — Dan Does
I think there are very few dishes that aren’t enhanced by the addition of hot sauce. Whether it’s fried eggs hot chicken tacos or Bloody Marys I’ll pull out a bottle of hot sauce to add a punch of heat and balance out my meals.
I undoubtedly go through the bottles pretty quickly which means I haven’t given much thought to how long hot sauce keeps let alone how to store it. As a kid we kept all of our hot sauce in the door of our refrigerator a tradition I’ve continued as an adult. But recently a friend’s pantry housed it along with other nonperishable condiments which got me wondering: What’s the best way to store hot sauce?
I sought answers by chatting with the experts at Tabasco one of the most iconic hot sauce brands to hear their expertise.
