Balado is a type of hot and spicy mixture found in the Minang cuisine of West Sumatra, Indonesia but found everywhere. It is a sauce made by stir frying ground red hot chili pepper with other spices including garlic, shallot, tomato and key lime juice in coconut or palm oil. [wiki]

@divegeester saidThought I'd take a gander. Knew I shouldn't have. ðŸ˜
In this forum there are those who like goose sauce but don’t like other people using the same sauce for their own gander.

When I was playing in my Irish band one gig at a bar found me being plied by one audience member with Irish coffee.
For one thing, I hate coffee....
And putting in whiskey made them even worse.
I had 6 of the damn things on my little table that night, not consumed🙂

@sonhouse saidFunny thing, that. Irish coffee is the only thing that makes coffee moderately drinkable for me. How tastes differ.

Mind, eatable is another matter. I love moccha pastries. I just don't want them in liquid form. For some reason, that makes all the difference to me. Can't fathom why, myself.
(Also, don't ask about tomato juice making vodka drinkable, or v.v. Neither is true. Horrible stuff.)

@trev33 saidWhen made right you can't eat pepper sauce like soup - there'll be whole peppercorns in it.
Pepper sauce, when made right could eat it like a soup.
Mine varies. Depends on what it goes over. Cheese sauce is great on cauliflower but not on beef, chocolate mole is the other way 'round (cauliflower gets lost in it). White asparagus needs melted butter and nothing more, panna cotta asks for a fruit reduction. With meat and fish I usually prefer a sauce made from the stirrings of the frying pan, or one which the meat was stewed in itself.
That said, Thai sweet chili sauce goes well with quite a lot of things.

@trev33 saidI eat hot peppers or pepper sauce in at least 2 out of 3 meals every day. Scorpion peppers and habeneros are my favourite. Been doing that since I was about 8 yrs old. Parents tried to stop me, and it was only in my 30s scientists found evidence that it was a very good practice.
