Whether you're preparing an appetizer, side dish, main course or dessert Fischer & Wieser Razzpotle Roasted Raspberry Chipotle Sauce, 20-Ounce Bottles (Pack of 6) is a wonderful item to have on hand.

I originally ordered this without realizing that it did contain seeds. Unfortunately I am the type that buys seedless jams, so I was definitely worried that I wouldn't like it. Upon receiving my order, it looked as though it was a very minimal amount so I decided to give it a try. Wanting to use recipes that have been tested with this sauce I headed to the Fischer & Wieser website. There I found three different ones that looked good and would allow me to taste the range of possibilities for this particular sauce.

My first choice was raspberry creamed chicken for dinner and it was delicious! The flavor was very nice and I think the cream toned down some of the chipotle's heat which my son wouldn't have normally liked. Then for dessert we decided to go easy and drizzle some onto vanilla ice cream. Simple, but tasty when combined together. The other recipe I will try soon is the raspberry chipotle cheese ball. It's a take on the sauce poured over cream cheese that everyone has mentioned, but this mixes both together and then you roll it in nuts. I'm taking it to a super bowl party and hope that it'll be an instant hit. *Edit 2/2/09 - Okay it was a hit! Everyone asked me what was in the cheese ball and they were all surprised when I said it was just cream cheese and the Razzpotle sauce. I used a soup bowl lined with saran wrap for the mold and then after it was chilled to firm up, I covered it with toasted chopped pecans - So easy!

Overall this is a very versatile sauce that I will continue stocking in my pantry. At first the price seemed a bit high, but when I thought about the price of fresh raspberries I changed my mind. The only thing keeping me from giving this sauce 5 stars would be those seeds! Although they didn't bother me enough to keep me from eating it, it was enough to say there is room for improvement in my opinion.

I was a bit skeptical about the raspberry and chipotle peppers combination, but this sauce definitely exceeded my expectations!      I tried it as a dip - took a pack of cream cheese, poured the sauce over it, mashed a little bit, and ate with Triscuits - and it was absolutely delicious! It would be great with any type of meat, I personally tried it on chicken. The first time around I marinated the chicken in the sauce and then threw it on the grill. The second time I just made …

This is a perfect combination of sweet and spicy. It has some kick, but not enough heat to make it unpleasant and the raspberry adds the perfect hint of sweetness.    The bottle contains a recipe for the use of the sauce on a pork loin. I tried that with the family and it was a hit. It wasn't too spicy for my 6 year old, he really liked it. I also poured some over a block of cream cheese and served it with crackers at a Super Bowl party, everyone (adults and children) really …

This is a strange but quite good concoction. It reminds me of a very spicy ketchup I used to eat back in Poland, there they go crazy with sauces and all sorts of condiments, and this brought back the memories, for some reason this mimics the ketchup but not with tomato undertones, the raspberry is rich and jewel like in taste, it really burst in the mouth with a lot of spice behind, the smoke flavor gives it nice woody depth but it's not overpowering, not like smoking a pipe or anything.     I …

I have really been enjoying giving this unique sauce a run for its money in a lot of different ways. The smoky-sweet spiciness is very versatile and never seems to overpower the flavor of the food it is paired with. The first couple of times I used it, I used it as a basting sauce for broiled chicken breast and pork chops. Yum! I especially like it slightly blackened and crispy. Actually, I used it on pork chops three times because is was so good. I put a tablespoon or so in some broth with veggies …

I'm not usually a fan of raspberry flavoring in cooking, but this chipotle sauce won me over quickly. So far, it's been a hit with chicken and pork, with a few more ideas to pursue.    It's not subtle, you'll be treated to a wealth of flavors that coexist amazingly well. All I did was brown some chicken breasts and then finish them with the sauce. The only person at the table that wasn't asking for more was the one that prefers her food a little on the bland side anyway (she …

We've roasted pork with this sauce, and used it for stir-fry, and seared chicken, and rubbed beef before grilling it, serving more sauce on the side. We'll move on next to salad dressings, and I can't swear I'm not going to bake with it.    Rather than being a sweet sauce, Razzpotle has a mellow, complex flavor that goes well with all kinds of meats. You won't need further seasonings to punch it up, and a little goes a long way.    I appreciate the fact that …

This is a great sauce if you would like to try something new with just some "kick." While it is hard to please all taste buds, the only thing I can tell is: If you are a traditionalist and only eat straight-forward foods, you may not like it. However, if you are one that always dares to try something new, then this is for you! If you are a fan of sweet-n-sour or sweet-n-spicy flavors, then this is the sauce for you. It is hot, but not too hot and just enough sweetness to satisfy your taste buds.

The sweetness of raspberry with a spicy "bite" to wake up your taste buds. It does not have an overbearing spicy "burn your taste buds" taste to it, just enough to add some zing.    So many different uses for it. Believe it or not, I use it as a dipping sauce for french fries, used it as a condiment on a hamburger and my favorite - as chicken wing sauce. All I do is deep fry the wings until crispy. Remove wings and drain out excess oil, place in a container that has a tight lid. …

I tried this sauce several ways. On a turkey sandwich, on crackers, with cream cheese.    Out of the bottle, it seems great. It smells terrific. On foods, however, it just didn't work for me. It is like a very thin raspberry jam with a hint of smokey heat that is completely overwhelmed by the sweetness of the sauce. For those of you who like sweet dressings, like poppyseed and catalina, this may go over well. I found it to be cloying and runny.    On the plus …

Since several people expressed concern about the seeds in the sauce, I thought I'd try it as a salad dressing, where I figured the seeds would be less bothersome. I was pleasantly surprised by the taste of the dressing, the chipotle gave an interesting twist on the raspberry flavor. I don't think this is a dressing that I would want to have every night, but it is a great break from the usual and adds a fun twist to an everyday meal. I'm looking forward to trying this as a marinade, I think it will …
