As we all know many of us home brewers are into making our own foodstuffs, cheese, jerky, raising chickens, gardening etc. Are there any of you out there that are into making your own hot sauce?
I got a real nice food processor/blender base for Christmas and I had about 1lb of cayenne peppers I had harvested and dried from my garden laying around so I decided to try making a hot sauce.
Took about ~1/4lb of peppers, destemmed and loosely crushed them into the bowl
Crushed and added an entire bulb of garlic
Threw in a tablespoon of kosher salt
Added about 2 cups of distilled white vinegar and let the processor rip!
Not too complicated for a first hot sauce attempt, and its pretty tasty. It could use some time to age, but I tried some with my eggs for breakfast and it had a great kick and garlic flavor that I like. A new obsession, here I come.
What about you guys? Recipes, hints, tips, experiences? Post em here
