TRUFF Mild Hot Sauce is Tangy, Balanced and Umami-Forward

Truffle-infused sauce brand TRUFF is known for its Habanero Hot Sauce and Jalapeño Lime Hot Sauce, and the all-new TRUFF Mild Hot Sauce caters to those looking for a well-balanced, umami-forward experience with "just a whisper of heat." Some people can never get the heat high enough, endlessly chasing that next level of burn, while others prefer flavors that don't send their tongue into a frenzy or bring tears to their eyes. This first-of-its-kind mild hot sauce from the brand is made with a blend of Anaheim peppers, vinegar, garlic, fragrant spices and the brand's signature black truffle.

When it comes to enjoying Mild Hot Sauce, TRUFF recommends pairing it with everything from fried eggs and chicken tenders to burgers, fries and beyond, since its bold, tangy essence works so well with a wide variety of food without overwhelming the senses.
