Instructions

Add all of the ingredients accept for the water to a pot and bring to a quick boil. If you need a bit more moisture, add a couple tablespoons of water.
Reduce the heat and simmer for about 20 minutes, until the peppers soften up nicely.
Cool it slightly, then process it in a food process or blender until very smooth.
Add in water a bit at a time until it reaches your preferred consistency.

Notes

Makes about 1 cup of unstrained hot sauce. It’s a pretty thick sauce overall, so thin as desired. You can also use more vinegar to thin it if you prefer.
Heat Factor: Hot. Not as hot as a ghost pepper hot sauce, but you'll definitely get some good heat from the datil peppers.
