My husband loves hot sauce, and after the smashing success I had with your Whiskey Hot Sauce, I’m excited to try this one!

Does anyone have a guess as to how long this can be stored in the fridge for?

About a month back I was stuck with a huge amount of habanero and I went about making hot sauce! It was quiet similar but used carrots instead of onions. But I’m thinking roasted onions would take this to whole new level.

Husband says this one is up next for the new recipe of the week. I anticipate adding it to Ree’s resturant style salsa, since I have to spice that up for the iron stomach men in my house – especially my seventeen year old son who has made the wall of fame at the local BBQ place for eating a ghost pepper.

One thing to note is that the heat subsides if you let it sit for a day or two… but it will still be very spicy. Just not as intense as the first day!

I made this yesterday and, though we like spicy foods, this was too hot for my husband and I. I followed the recipe and used eight habaneros and I think next time I’ll try it with 4 and work my way up. I blended in about a half a large can of diced tomatoes to lessen the heat and that made it so we could eat it with chips like a salsa, and you could still taste the vinegar and sugar, but I still had to just glaze the end of the chip with it and it was plenty spicy. It’s very flavorful and I liked it a lot, but I just couldn’t take the heat of eight habaneros.

I always wanted to try habaneros but have been afraid of the heat. Your step-by-step has given me the courage and inspiration I need to give it a try. Do you eat it like a dip as seen in the picture? Does that mean it isn’t super duper hot? Thanks

This sauce looks great. But what forced me to comment is that tiny pitcher you have for the oil! I absolutely love it! What a hoot.

Homemade hot sauces are the BEST! Put them in mason jars and give in gifts or bring to parties! You will always be invited back
