TABASCO

Oct 02 2017 |

The McIlhenny Company has produced its hot sauce, TABASCO, since 1868. Edmund McIlhenny developed the original red pepper sauce recipe to inject some extra flavor into what was often bland food in the Reconstruction South. Since then, that same recipe has been handed down from generation to generation for TABASCO though a longer aging process and a bit more vinegar has been added in contemporary times.
