On Feb. 12 at 10:30 a.m, the author of the new Sriracaha Cookbook will speak at the Mark Taper Auditorium in the Los Angeles Central Library. The Culinary Historians of Southern California present Randy Clemens, who will explore the history of Sriracha hot sauce, from its humble beginnings
as a spicy Thai condiment to the massive fame of its American “rooster
sauce” counterpart.
Randy will sign copies of his hot-off-the-presses
book during the reception. Hot–get it?
More after the jump!
