I started up this little hot sauce biz about a year ago. Time to get started again. With this one, had a nice little crop of Carolina Reapers. It’s not too crazy hot...if you’re a pepper head like me.

Steps

1

Roughly chop the peppers, onion, and garlic and place in processor or blender and blend until finely diced
2

Add remaining ingredients and liquefy.
3

Place in sauce pan and bring to a light boil. Reduce to a low simmer for 20-25 mins covered
4

Return to blender and liquify further until there are no chunks or seeds visible
5

Pour through a fine strainer into a jar or measuring cup so just the liquid remains. (I would not use cheesecloth because you will get a very watery liquid instead of a sauce.)
6

Distribute into hot sauce bottles or mason jars as you prefer. For best results, let refrigerate for at least 2-3 days before use.
7

You can use the remaining pulp/paste as well in other dishes. For instance, I make my own dill pickles and I use some to make a spicier version.

I LOVE to cook and create. I tend to be heavy on spice and the savory dishes and I love making hot sauces and salsas which are now part of our new quick-service Mexican kitchen and taco truck business. Marinading and smoking meats is also one of my favorite hobbies as well.
