Do you value flavor more than heat? Then you’ll love Ghost Scream Ghost Truffle Hot Sauce. Ghost Truffle Hot Sauce is full of savory spices and fresh ingredients, including black truffles! This gourmet and specialty hot can be considered a black truffle hot sauce since one of the main ingredients is black truffles which are part of the umami category of taste. The black truffle, or "umami" taste, can be thought of as an earthy, bold, and bright flavor.
So, what are black truffles? Well, they’re a special fungus like mushrooms that grow between Hazelnut trees in France. While we just use a bit for their flavor, truffles are typically considered part of a special savory taste category called umami. They are common in certain types of gourmet cooking, which is why they’re often deemed a delicacy and other parts of the world.
And, of course, we add our signature fresh Ghost Peppers for a boost of heat, too. If you’re looking for an estimate on the heat scale, we would give it a six or seven out of ten; not spicy enough to cause panic, but still super flavorful.
