How to Make Fermented Hot Sauce - This Fresh Batch Is AMAZING

in #homesteading7 years ago

Last night while my son was getting his massage therapy I needed something to do that was out of the way and quiet so I processed this batch of Fermented Hot Sauce. The peppers have been fermenting in the pantry for over a month so I figured now was a good time to get it strained and bottled.

This blend of peppers is about half Tabasco Peppers for heat and about half of sweet peppers. Those were a mix of Banana Peppers and Bell Peppers. All the Peppers were grown in the Daddykirbs Garden. There is a bit of garlic in the mix as well.

This part of the process is easy. I simply poured the mash into a strainer, then pushed on the mash until all the juice ran into a container below. In the video at the bottom of this post I added an extra step by adding thickener, but in this batch I decided I didn't want to add the extra ingredients.

Watch this for detailed instructions

Nice, some great instructions! Sharing to twitter!

Those are going to be some spicy chickens!!

I am not sure if I can find tobasco peppers around here. That sauce looks so good.

any hot pepper will work. I used Tabasco this time because it's what I had in the garden.

Those dips are mouth watering though. Eating is boring without those! I love sweet and spicy. Great subject there. Keep it up :)

Sometimes I'll make a dip using hot sauce like this and adding my honey. That is so so so good with chicken :)

I shall have to give that a try. Thanks for the instructions.

You got it! I'm glad you found that useful.

1 being not hot to 10 being not able to taste anything for an hour, how would you rate the heat? Also it does look really good and thanks for the recipe...so how about shipping some up here to me here in central IL??? :- )

I had a couple of chicken and rice tacos tonight with this sauce. The flavor is fantastic. The heat builds with each bite! By the time I was done eating one taco I was panting. I'd give it a 6 out of 10.

For me it is about the flavor, as long as it takes good I don't mind some heat! But I very much dislike hot sauces that are hot just to melt your face! Oh and if you send me some I will do an "official" review post....maybe you can start a new business of selling Hot Sauce!!!

Happy Sunday! The newest Weekly Homesteading Newsletter has just been published and your article has been featured in the issue! Thank you and have a great day!

I had a surplus of hot peppers too last year - will try to make this sauce next year! Thanks for sharing:)
