ecoli Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 I planted serrano peppers this year and they're just starting to be ready for harvest. Anybody have any good hot sauce recipes? I've been wanting to make my own for a while. (Also growing my own tomatoes and garlic)! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iNow Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 Sounds like good salsa fixin's if you ask me. Food processor, chopped tomatoes, garlic, and peppers (maybe some onion, salt, pepper, and cilantro if you like that) whiz it up... get some chips. You could make pickled peppers (like for nachos), or even just cut 'em up and add them to some vinegar and let them sit for a bit. I don't have any recipes myself, I tend to cook and mix ingredients that "seem" right... A little of this/A little of that. When some people say "hot sauce" they mean salsa. Did you actually mean pepper sauce? Either way, have fun with it. I used to pick my peppers right off the plant and bite into them. Some have serious kick, but it's a nice adrenaline rush.

ecoli Posted August 6, 2008 Author Share Posted August 6, 2008 I actually did mean pepper sauce, but salsa is also a great idea. Thanks, iNow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iNow Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 Right on. I don't have any recipes of my own (I really hope someone will chime in with a few they've tried), but you can also check out a site like the below, review the ingredients list, and then experiment from there. Don't forget the frozen margaritas. Cheers. http://www.hotsauceblog.com/hotsaucearchives/review-green-bandit-basil-serrano-hot-sauce/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bascule Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 First I start with sriracha, then I add... more sriracha... My coworker made some awesome habanero peach sauce she called "peach napalm"... that stuff was the bomb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iNow Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 I love sriracha. I put it on/in everything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iNow Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 I was just making myself some dinner, and was using Sriracha when I remembered this thread. Did you ever make your hot sauce or salsa, ecoli? If so, how'd it turn out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm wondering how I can manage with store bought until next fall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
