Eggs. Hot sauce. Ketchup. Soy sauce. Pickles. Kimchi. Mustard. Sriracha. Olives.
Ketchup needs to be refrigerated because it's a cooling fluid for boiling lava hot potatoes.
Hot sauce collector here, heaps of sauces specify they need to be refrigerated after opening.
Tell it to all South of border restaurants. Hot sauce on table, all day, every day.
'They specify' doesn't mean it ever happened before refrigeration.
Pickles, too, were made because there was no refrigeration (not how most are made now, but originally).
That’s mainly cuz they go through bottles very quickly! We have so many sauces at my house, it takes a year+ to go through some of the most spicy bois. Definitely need to fridge ’em. There’s only one kind that can stay out cuz i slam through tons of it every time we pizza. Some mango habanero sauce with a… Yorker cap? Whatever you call the twisty pointy cap.
Wait people leave kimchi out of the fridge?
Putting it in the fridge slows the fermentation process to trap the right flavor. Otherwise it's a bit TOO kimchi-y and not so tasty.
I can see it with eggs, if you don't wash eggs they're shelf stable for a couple weeks because of a natural coating. I was super confused when I went to the UK and all the eggs were on a shelf at the supermarket instead of in a cooler.
Yep. Definitely refrigerate eggs in the U.S.
If it is not salt fermented pickles but rather those pickled in vinegar, it is good to put them in the fridge after opening the glass.
Those are all normal things to refrigerste. Except kimchi possibly as I've never had it in my house.
Soy sauce isn't.
I guess we disagree on that one.
It's only worth refrigerating fancy soy sauces.
