Default Hot sauces...

What I would really like is a mild hot sauce. That's because I love
the flavour of Louisiana hot sauce, and I like to use as much as
possible. However, I find when I do that that it's just too hot. I'd
like to see a Louisiana hot sauce that is half as hot, but with the
good ole' flavour that we find in hot sauces today.
And btw, I've never had Tobasco sauce. It is much more expensive than
Frank's here...

You might like the cheap stuff they sell at Aldi. Seriously. If it's a
little too hot for you, you're only out about a dollar.

Been there... interesting tour.

The OP might try Tabasco's Green Sauce. A lot milder than the original
red and lots of flavor. I like it on scrambled eggs.

It's called Avery Island, but it's not an island.
It's a tall hill that stands up from a flat landscape.

You could try diluting a sauce you like
with pureed roasted sweet red peppers.

I think the green Tabasco is horrible stuff.
None of the subtle complexity of the red stuff,
just a little pepper, heat, and green food coloring.

It's supposed to be jalapeno, but is done poorly. Stick with the
original. Ooh... the habanero is pretty good. Not blistering heat
and discernable habanero flavor. A good habanero introductory sauce.
The chipotle is like all chipotles. Tastes like someone crapped in an
ashtray and bottled it.

I like the green Tabasco. Very mild but good flavor!

Use less. That is how they make Buffalo Wings mild medium and hot.....
by adding more sauce.

Tabasco sauce is much hotter, and is much more concentrated and a little
goes a long way. Hot for hot, it may not be more expensive.

I like Trappy's.

============

So do I. They stopped carrying "Trappey's Original Recipe Louisiana Hot
Sauce" it in the stores around here, so I ordered a dozen bottles off the
net. Great taste IMO, and not so hot at all.

I prefer cholula to tabasco. Franks from Carolina I like. It's easy to make
a version. Vinegar and hot spices, Maybe a little water.
