How Tabasco Fills Up To 700,000 Hot Sauce Bottles A Day | Big Business | Insider Business

The McIlhenny Company has made Tabasco sauce using the same recipe since 1868: red peppers, vinegar, and salt. Since the hot sauce is aged in bourbon barrels, it takes five years to fill just one bottle. And most of this process still happens where it all began: Avery Island, Louisiana. Six generations of McIlhennys have lived on the island. But with disappearing marshes and more intense storms along the coast, the family is fighting to protect their, and the hot sauce's, home.

    Tabasco brand could be a whole study into Quality Control. You can get it ANYWHERE, from the largest super stores down to bodegas and even gas stations where I live. And somehow it ALWAYS tastes exactly the same. It's one thing if you think about say toothpaste, where everything is made with chemicals in sterilized environments, but Tabasco is using old school techniques and out sourcing their mash internationally, but somehow they deliver the same product to millions of people every single day.

    As a kid tabasco was not my favorite, but as a chef, tabasco is by far my favorite and I'll tell you why. Tabasco's taste is nothing but peppers, people say it's too much vinegar, but vinegar cooks out, salt does not. Tabasco has so little salt in it, that you can add it without screwing up the overall flavor of the dish.

    2:58 White oak is very commonly used for barrels due to the presence of tyloses in the pores. These are growths of parenchyma cells which move into the vessels and help slow down/block water from moving through. This also helps with rot resistance and longevity of the wood. Basically it has clogged pores.

    Ever since I discovered the secret of putting tabasco in my noodles I've been a complete tabasco fan. Have bought and tasted every flavor and I just can't get enough of them. Habanero specifically is my personal favorite since it pares extremely well with sweet & sour chili sauce both put together in the noodles. Creates an amazing combination of sweet vinegary saltiness that I can't get enough of. Scorpion sauce is also amazing as a way to add even more heat if necessary without compromising too much on the flavor and I found it to also pair really well with chicken curry salad. The fruitiness of the scorpion sauce definitely adds to the mild curry taste alongside seriously amping up the heat if desired.

    Not only do they have factory tours but they have what they call the "Acadiana Culinary Experience" where you can taste that Mash if you want too. Book your ticket well in advance however because they do tend to sell out. On a side note, it will require a rental car to get out to what is essentially a remote area in southern Louisiana and the roads can be absolutely terrible. Think washboard dirt road with tons of pot holes quality except its paved and the pot holes might or might not have been patched.

    The only way the Mississippi Delta can survive, is if _every single state_ along the river *removes* their levees. Every single one. All of them. They all have to go, even the ones around the cities. You _must_ let the water spread out into the flood plains the way it used to. Not only will this cut back on the severity of the floods, it will also lessen the effects of drought, and most importantly of all, it will _slow down the river._ Right now, the river dumps all of the silt it carries far out into the Gulf of Mexico, where it rains down into the abyss at around 1700 feet. Not only is it not doing any good down there, it's doing damage! But if you slow the river down, it will dump the silt in the delta, where it belongs. It will also mean losing depth for transportation of goods, and so more money will need to be spent on dredging and erosion control, but at least it will reverse the loss of all of New Orleans.
