Good chipotle sauces are not that easy to get right; they’re either utterly pointless (like the Heinz ‘effort’) or a bit too dark in taste, and backed up by too much heat.
This Smoky Chipotle sauce from The Cambridge Chilli Co. hits the spot perfectly. It’s good and thick, has just enough pep and is subtle enough to be wonderfully versatile. There are no freaky ingredients and red onions that are quite prevalent in the ingredients list don’t over-mark their presence at all.
I like the hilariously optimistic ‘consume within two months’ of opening stated on the label – if these bottles contained a couple of pints (instead of 150ml), this chilli sauce would still only last about a fortnight in this house!
I’ve only tried a few of the sauces on offer by The Cambridge Chilli Sauce Co., but if the rest are as good as this then I really hope I can find more of the range!
