Sriracha fans take note: you really have to try this snack nut
Are you just as crazy about sriracha? For us, it really is the sauce for every moment, over every dish, for every occasion. Our all-time favorite sauce. And now there are snack nuts made with it – hooray! – too. Super crunchy and deliciously spicy!
Sriracha = life
We can’t go a day without this sauce of sauces – made with chili peppers, vinegar, salt and sugar – which goes with and over absolutely everything. From Venezuelan arepas to a slice of bread with peanut butter or a tuna salad sandwich; the Thai hot pepper sauce is simply delicious and takes every dish or snack to the next level. Even a snack (peanuts!) itself!
Crunchy nuts
So we were pleasantly surprised when we came across Sriracha Peanut Crunch at Jumbo. In other words: peanuts coated with sriracha. And they’re from the new snack brand Mi-tsu-ba, which adds some extra spice to the Dutch snacking scene with its Asian (rice) snacks. The snacks, ten in total, are inspired by different places and flavors from Asia; from Bangkok all the way to Kyoto. Besides Sriracha Peanut Crunch, there are also Red Curry Crispies and Wasabi Crunchy Peas, for example. All palm oil-free and without the flavor enhancer MSG (also known as ve-tsin).
So, how does it taste?
Spicy! But that’s also why you pull this bag from the shelf, right? Because you like a little heat. And this certainly delivers. The delicious sriracha flavor is also well represented. It’s very crunchy, too. The only minor downside: the garlic flavor lingers for a long time, unlike the sriracha flavor. But wash it down with a cold beer and you won’t hear us complaining.
A bag of Mi-tsu-ba Sriracha Pinda Crunch (125g) costs €1.89 (Jumbo).
