A spicy chili sauce made from chili peppers, garlic, vinegar, sugar and salt, named after the Thai coastal town of Si Racha.
The name of Sriracha maker Huy Fong Foods has nothing to do with sauce. In 1979, founder David Tran escapedVietnam aboard a cargo ship named Huey Fong, which took him to Hong Kong. He later named the company after the ship that saved his life.
