Instructions

  1. Add ingredient to large pot. Bring to boil.
  2. Reduce heat and simmer for 30 minutes to one hour.
  3. Add peppers to blender, in batches, if necessary. Blend for a few minutes.
  4. If you want a smooth sauce, strain out solids. If you choose not to strain it, it will age hotter because the seeds are still there.
  5. Sterilize bottles. Fill bottles with hot sauce.
  6. Add limiter lids and then caps.

Notes

  • See article for important tips and tricks to make your ferment successful.
  • Store hot sauce in refrigerator.
  • Finished hot sauce will last at least 1 year and probably longer, under refrigeration.
  • Measure pH if you would like to the sauce to last. pH should measure about 3.5. 
  • If hot sauce spoils, it will be very evident from the smell. It will smell terribly sour.
