I like a dash with my "student" tuna pasta: http://yacf.co.uk/forum/index.php?topic=808.msg1153914#msg1153914

(I was never a student, I just cook like one).

Mr Naga is great but Tabasco is in a league of its own for quality and subtlety of flavour.  I did a VIP tour of the factory in Louisiana a while ago and was amazed by the reverence with which the manufacturing process is treated.  The stuff is fermented and matured in oak wine barrels for three years for heaven's sake.  The chillis used are so specific and evolved that they have been given their own biological genus. 

It's wonderful stuff.

I'm more of an Encona fan.  It's clean, pure heat in a bottle.  I was once fed a chilli con carne, apparently for some sort of bet, made entirely of mince, kidney beans and Encona.  It hurt a lot when eating it and it hurt even more the next day when it made a break for the sea.

I don't see the point of adding so much chilli that the palate of the food is destroyed. I want flavour, not bragging rights.
