More Info
Heat Level and Flavor Profile for GARLIC JALAPEÑO Hot Sauce
Stoke the Fire grows fresh jalapeño peppers on Track Street farm to craft this classic hot sauce that balances moderate heat with rich garlic flavor. This 3/5 heat rating sauce delivers a smooth burn that builds gradually, making it perfect for both heat newcomers and spice lovers who want flavor without overwhelming fire. The BC-grown jalapeños provide a bright, vegetal heat that pairs beautifully with locally sourced garlic and onions, creating a sauce that tastes both simple and surprisingly complex.
Scoville Rating and Pepper Characteristics
- Medium heat intensity at 3/5 rating, ranging 2,500-8,000 Scoville units

- Flavor starts with garlic and onion, transitions to jalapeño spice, finishes with mild warmth
- Heat level similar to popular jalapeño poppers or mild chipotle peppers
- Local Track Street farm jalapeños offer superior freshness compared to imported peppers
- Perfect balance where heat enhances rather than overpowers the garlic and onion base
Recipe Applications and Cooking Uses
This versatile sauce works as both a cooking ingredient and finishing condiment, enhancing everything from breakfast eggs to dinner proteins. The garlic-forward profile makes it an excellent companion to garlic syrups from our collection, creating layered flavor combinations that elevate any dish without overwhelming the palate.
Serving Suggestions
- Breakfast applications: scrambled eggs, breakfast burritos, hash browns, and avocado toast
- Use as cooking sauce for stir-fries, marinades, and slow-cooked meats
- Start with 1-2 teaspoons for heat-sensitive eaters, up to 1 tablespoon for spice lovers
- Excellent marinade base for chicken, pork, and grilled vegetables
- Perfect finishing sauce for pizza, tacos, sandwiches, and soups
- Combine with garlic syrup for complex sweet-heat glazes
Storage and Shelf Life Guidelines for GARLIC JALAPEÑO
Proper storage preserves the fresh garlic and jalapeño flavors that make this artisan sauce special. Keep refrigerated after opening to maintain the bright, clean taste that sets small batch production apart from mass-market alternatives.
Freshness and Quality
- Store in refrigerator at 35-40°F for optimal flavor preservation
- Maintains peak quality for 12-18 months after opening when properly stored
- Natural separation may occur - simply shake before use
- Refrigeration recommended immediately after first use
- Fresh garlic and onion ingredients retain flavor longer with cold storage
- Small batch production ensures shorter time from farm to bottle
Food Pairing Recommendations
The classic combination of jalapeño, garlic, and onion makes this sauce incredibly food-friendly, complementing both rich and light dishes. Its moderate heat level allows the garlic and pepper flavors to shine through without overwhelming delicate ingredients.
Cuisine Compatibility
This sauce excels with grilled chicken, pork tenderloin, and white fish where its garlic base enhances rather than competes with protein flavors. It pairs beautifully with aged cheddar, cream cheese, and sour cream for cooling contrast. Canadian comfort foods like poutine, grilled cheese, and meat pies benefit from its familiar yet elevated flavor profile. The sauce also complements Mexican, Tex-Mex, and Asian stir-fry dishes. Try it with fresh vegetables, crackers, and cheese for appetizers, or drizzle over roasted root vegetables that grow well in BC's climate.
