Vinegar Based Hot Sauce Recipes

HABANERO HOT SAUCE RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425˚F (220˚C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Place the habanero peppers and garlic on the baking sheet. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon of olive oil and toss with tongs to coat. NOTE: Do not touch the peppers with your bare hands.
• Roast for 10 minutes, until the edges of the peppers are brown.
• Add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil to a large pot over high heat. Add the carrot, onion, and salt. Cook for 4 minutes, until the vegetables are tender and glossy.
• Add the water, lime juice, white vinegar, and the roasted peppers and stir. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer for 10 minutes.
• Remove the pot from the heat and let cool.
• Pour the vegetable mixture into a blender and puree until smooth.
• Using a funnel, pour the sauce into a bottle or jar and store in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
• Enjoy!

HOMEMADE RED HOT SAUCE

Steps:

• Combine the peppers, garlic, onions, salt and oil in a non-reactive saucepan over high heat. Saute for 3 minutes. Add the water and continue to cook, stirring occasionally, for about 20 minutes, or until peppers are very soft and almost all of the liquid has evaporated. (Note: this should be done in a very well-ventilated area!) Remove from the heat and allow to steep until mixture comes to room temperature. In a food processor, puree the mixture for 15 seconds, or until smooth. With the food processor running, add the vinegar through the feed tube in a steady stream.
• Taste and season with more salt, if necessary. (This will depend on the heat level of the peppers you use as well as the brand of vinegar used.) Strain the mixture through a fine mesh sieve and then transfer to a sterilized pint jar or bottle and secure with an airtight lid. Refrigerate. Let age at least 2 weeks before using. Can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 6 months.
