Instructions
- Heat olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat and sauté the Scotch bonnet peppers, carrot, bell pepper, onion, and garlic for 5-7 minutes until softened.
- Stir in the salt, black pepper, and sugar, then pour in the water and vinegar, bringing the mixture to a gentle simmer.
- Reduce the heat and simmer for 10 minutes to meld the flavors.
- Let the mixture cool slightly, then blend until smooth using a blender or immersion blender. Adjust the consistency by adding more water to thin, or simmering longer to thicken.
- Squeeze in the lime juice and stir to combine.
- Transfer the hot sauce to a sterilized jar or bottle, let it cool completely, and store in the refrigerator for up to 4 weeks.
Notes
- Taste the sauce as you go and add more or less salt and pepper based on your preference.
- For a less spicy hot sauce, make this hot sauce using ⅓ scotch bonnet, ⅓ jalapeno, and ⅓ poblano chilies.
- Store the hot sauce in the refrigerator for up to 4 weeks once it's fully cooled. Or, you can use an ice cube tray or freezer-safe container to freeze the sauce for up to 6 months.
