Creating Your own HotSauce is simple and so delicious
if you have a garden full of peppers this recipe can be used for any type of peppers. No garden no problem just buy a few pounds of peppers from your favorite food market.
Ingredients:
One pound of peppers more or less
enough white vinegar to cover the peppers
2 Tablespoons fresh ginger root
5 small garlic cloves
I place the peppers, ginger, and garlic in the crockpot and set to high cooking for around 3 hours then I turn off the crockpot and remove lid and let peppers cool.
After the peppers are cool put the entire mixture of peppers, vinegar, ginger, and garlic in a food processor and blend until smooth
Put mixture in either a food mill or a strainer to strain out seeds and possible stems.
if the sauce is too thick add additional white vinegar until the perfect consistency is reached
the hot sauce is ready and can be kept if fridge for up to 6 months
I like to add a little sweetness to my hotsauce which helps to mellow out the heat.
after the hot sauce is blended and strained I add 1/4 cup of honey
and
1/4 cup of dark rum or bourbon
(of course this is optional and no alcohol is necessary) this just gives a little something special and provides an additional depth of flavor.
Please note that hot sauce may separate as it sits in the bottle but a little shake will solve that.
