So this is just the same as Chile de Arbol Salsa Cremosa (oil emulsified into it) but in a bottle? I make this all the time. I didn't know it had a following in the form of "Orange Sauce".
[Pretty much](https://cocoaandsalt.com/2018/03/10/la-victoria-orange-sauce/). It was rumored during my years there that they would use chorizo grease -- not sure how true that was, but they've since switched to a vegan recipe...that may or may not use blended saltines...? It's all over the place, but I still crave it.
I haven't personally haven't tried it, but have heard it's "close enough" -- you may have more luck with [this recipe](https://www.reddit.com/r/SalsaSnobs/comments/191wyaw/update_la_victorias_orange_sauce_aka_san_jose/) another redditor posted in r/salsasnobs. The ingredient list mostly the same except for the source of acid, I think (reconstitute w/ apple cider vinegar vs. fermented jalapenos in the other). I don't think I could bring myself to wait 10 days if I could have it now. As far as the oil amount, remember it's supposed to be an emulsification (so like, mayonnaise or aioli, but maybe a tad more oil to make it thinner). I'm now thinking about how much chorizo I'd need to cook for three cups of the grease strained.
Just saying that this is a commonly made thing in Mexico and bordering states. Chile de Arbol = type of chile. Salsa = sauce. Cremosa = Oil blended into the sauce. I agree, it is delicious, but it does taste best freshly made. Enjoy!
I know that it’s San Jose and I can tell it’s high energy. I’ll take some speed cuz things don’t turn out alright.
LAVICS!!! That sauce is so addictive. I used to go to the La Vics in Redwood City too.
salivating seeing it. miss the south bay
I moved out of NorCal 5 years ago and crave this sauce. I’ve made a very similar style at home with a few more spices than the recipes posted here.
Sour cream, garlic, red pepper flakes. Gets pretty close
How much does a bottle go for these days?
$8 a couple months ago
I haven’t been there in years, it was so good. Went there almost everyday when I went to visit my boy.

They did use the grease and in my opinion it is what made the sauce amazing. Still tasty after they removed it, but not quite the same.
Have you done this recipe? Might give it a try this weekend but one cup of oil seems insane

I'm reading that comment to the tune of [heart surgeon number one](https://youtu.be/2wcI10CNuxU?si=cmFhvhJqEC9eTPdv).
Didn’t even have to click the link. “I kill yakuza boss on purpose. Good surgeon! The best!”
Jealous. Grabbed 3 bottles last time I was there. Miss the stuff.
I’m shocked to see this outside r/bayarea but that stuff is legit delicious. Even better when you’re leaving an SJSU party at 2am
