Sriracha (/siːˈrɑːtʃə/ see-RAH-chə or /sɪˈrɑːtʃə/ si-RAH-chə; Thai: ศรีราชา, pronounced [sǐːrāːtɕʰāː] ⓘ) is a type of hot sauce or chili sauce made from a paste of chili peppers, distilled vinegar, pickled garlic, sugar, and salt. It was first produced in 1932 by a native of Si Racha, a town and district of Thailand, though it may have been based on older Cantonese recipes.
