Sriracha Peas


I always thought that sriracha was the brand name of what's commonly know as rooster sauce (Does sriracha trip off your tongue?)  Nope, it's a generic name for a Thai hot (and slightly sweet) chili-based condiment used for dipping; however, I put sriracha on popcorn, on scrambled eggs, on devilled eggs, on goat cheese, on grilled cheese, and on and on.  Now, Hapi Snacks brings us, direct from Thailand, a major breakthrough: sriracha-coated peas.  I generally like stuff with more stuff, and this is a satisfying example.  They may need a pinch more salt, but I say that about most things.  Unless I say it needs more sriracha.

Delicious! I had to do a double take when I saw these sitting next to the Wasabi peas. YES!
