2.0 out of 5 stars Not this company's best
The overall taste of this sauce was a disappointment to me. I love many of this company's products so I was a bit surprised that this chili paste didn't taste any better. There are bitter notes to this sauce which I attribute to chile seeds, vinegar and an excessive amount of salt. Buy some dry red pepper flakes and you'll eliminate the bitterness of this sauce but...

5.0 out of 5 stars great condiment, September 5, 2007

IF you are someone who likes hot sauce this is a nice change. I find it especially good on eggs, but can be used on just about anything you would put hot sauce on.

5.0 out of 5 stars I LOVE this sauce!, December 4, 2010
This review is from: Sambal Oelek Chilli Paste 18oz (Misc.)
This sauce is AMAZING stuff. I don't like extraordinarily spicy food, and this is perfect. It gives a nice kick of fire without being overbearing. What I especially love about this sauce is the sweetness. Purely from a flavor standpoint, this sauce is delicious. I love to ladle good-size spoonfuls of this stuff onto my rice and stir-fry dishes. It's addictive!

5.0 out of 5 stars The freshest chili paste, October 1, 2008
This review is from: Sambal Oelek Chilli Paste 18oz (Misc.)
This chilli is so fresh, you can't believe it came from a bottle. I use this to marinade fish, as part of the dipping sauce for dumplings, and add it to just about everything! It adds a kick and freshness to the dish.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Sauce!, January 5, 2008

I LOVE this sauce. It is great on just about everything - I'm a hot sauce freak and cannot use sauces with garlic. This sauce fits the bill - hot and great taste! If you like hot, this is the sauce for you.

5.0 out of 5 stars Si ves esta salsa comprala inmediatamente, August 19, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Sambal Oelek Chilli Paste 18oz (Misc.)
Esta salsa no es facil de conseguir, a menos que tengas mercados asiaticos cerca de tu casa, tiene un balance perfecto de acidez y picante con unos toques dulces que apenas se pueden percatar.
La puedes usar para cocinar, aderezar, sazonar y es muy versatil.
que bueno que Amazon tiene este producto, algunos se pueden parecer, pero yo recomiendo exactamente esta salsa.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not this company's best, December 31, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Sambal Oelek Chilli Paste 18oz (Misc.)
The overall taste of this sauce was a disappointment to me. I love many of this company's products so I was a bit surprised that this chili paste didn't taste any better. There are bitter notes to this sauce which I attribute to chile seeds, vinegar and an excessive amount of salt. Buy some dry red pepper flakes and you'll eliminate the bitterness of this sauce but otherwise replicate it almost perfectly.

I much prefer the Huy Fong's Sriracha Hot Chili Sauce. It is not only hotter but it has a wonderful sweetness to it combined with some pleasant garlic notes.

This is a fine company but not every one of its products hits the mark. This chili paste misses the mark by a wide margin in my view.

The product label lists (in this order) chiles (with seeds), salt and then vinegar. The vinegar and salt add a lot of bitterness. As I said - I like this company's products but not this particular one. Salt and vinegar do NOT complement chiles that well in my view.

Appreciate the fast service for this very useful item for cooking. I only found it in a store in Florida, and could not find it in New York.
