h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Ingredients are found in most grocery shops

For those of us who are too lazy to make our own (I wonbder who that might be ), are there places one could buy it already made?

I'm not sure saltpitre would make any sort of sauce wow wow.. unless it's like "wow wow does that thing actually work?"

Saltpetre is not an ingredient in wow wow sauce, according the Wikipedia. Here is the Wkipedia recipe:

Wow Wow Sauce: Chop parsley leaves fine; take two or three pickled cucumbers, or walnuts, and divide into small squares, and set them by in readiness; put into a saucepan a piece of butter as big as an egg; when it is melted, stir into it a tablespoonful of fine flour, and half a pint of the broth of the beef; add a tablespoonful of vinegar, one of mushroom ketchup, or port wine, or both, and a tablespoonful of made mustard; simmer together till it is as thick as you wish, put in the parsley and pickles to get warm, and pour it over the beef, or send it up in a sauce-tureen. This is excellent for stewed or boiled beef.

somehow I imagined more wow in wow wow sauce..

Well, cheer up, Batty.

Not everyone was meant to be Julia Child.
Even Julia Child wasn't Julia Child sometimes.

Since wow wow sauce is meant to be put on beef, you won't need it at all when you're not eating beef.

I think it's just the name that did it... made it seem... spicy..

there is always the option of reducing tabasco to approx. 20 percent and cook some chopped piripiri chilies in it

Tabasco is not part of my Four Basic Foods Group.

must find Nanny Ogg's wow wow sauce recipe

For that type or red hot sauce I prefer Louisiana Hot Sauce.. though I like the green sauce and chipotle sauce by Tabasco. I also like La Cholula for a quick salsa.. chopped tomato and onion, coat with La Cholula and lemon.. use like you would pico de gallo

Why not just buy some salsa and save the extra steps?

why not take a cab to the nearest texmex restaurant and save all the steps?

Why not just have a and save the texmex?

If I lived next to the Texmex restaurant, I wouldn't even need a cab. I don't east , though, and they don't eat me .
