Tips:

  • Use ripe peppers: The riper the peppers, the sweeter and more flavorful your hot sauce will be.
  • Roast your peppers: Roasting peppers brings out their natural sweetness and smokiness.
  • Remove the seeds and ribs: The seeds and ribs of peppers are where most of the heat is located. If you want a milder hot sauce, remove them before blending.
  • Use a variety of peppers: Different peppers have different flavors, so using a variety will create a more complex hot sauce.
  • Add other ingredients for flavor: You can add other ingredients to your hot sauce to give it more flavor, such as garlic, onion, ginger, or herbs.
  • Simmer your hot sauce: Simmering your hot sauce helps to meld the flavors and thicken the sauce.
  • Bottle your hot sauce: Once your hot sauce has cooled, bottle it in clean glass jars or bottles.
  • Store your hot sauce in a cool, dark place: Hot sauce can be stored in a cool, dark place for up to a year.
