Sriracha is a popular hot sauce made from chili peppers, garlic, sugar, and vinegar. It was created in the early 1980s by a woman named David Tran, a Chinese immigrant who was living in Los Angeles. Tran was seeking to create a hot sauce that would be both flavorful and spicy, which he achieved with his unique blend of ingredients.
Since then, sriracha has become a beloved condiment, used on everything from pizza to burgers. Its unique flavor has made it a staple in many households and restaurants around the world.
