Can you swap one for the other?

What they have in common

More than half of sriracha's flavor molecules (14 of 23) also occur in brussels sprouts. Among the shared key aromas are 2-isobutyl-3-methoxypyrazine (green bell pepper, earthy) and 1-octen-3-ol (mushroom, earthy). Shared chemistry is a reason to try a pair, not a promise that it works on the plate.
