Getting your hot sauces right is always a bit of a tricky one in the burrito business. Too hot and you risk scaring off those with a serious sensitivity to chilli (i.e. half of England). Too mild on the other hand, and you're left with accusations of boringness. So clearly we have a mild, medium and hot range of salsas, but, crucially - for those with extreme tastes - we also now have Fuego.
Made with chilli extract with a +1,000,000 Scoville Heat Unit rating (roughly the same ball park as Federal-Grade pepperspray) you'll only need a tiny pin prick to add a flavoursome heat to a burrito (or any other dish for that matter). Fuego will be on sale in all Ponchos from this Wednesday, though Alex and Zen have already been keen enough to order 4 bottles for drop off at their offices.
They jokingly said they're going to try and make "Fuego+" using some chilli crystal they bought off the internet. At least we think they were joking...
