Got some more peppers and am going to make another batch of hot sauce this weekend.

It turned out a little "grainy" last time. Some of you were test subjects so know what I'm talking about.

I did a standard carrot, tomatoe, vinegar, onion and pepper than blended an boiled.

Was wondering if anyone had any good recipes they used?

I'm going to roast some peppers on the egg and dehydrate the others. I plan on straining it this time.

    Do you mean hot sauce like Tabasco or Frank's or like a Mexican salsa hot sauce type thing?

    I still use the family secret recipe my mammy and her mammy used.  It's rather complicated, so you might want to print this out and refer to it while making the Willson Secret Hot Sauce.

    1:  Put a bunch of chile pequins in a bottle of regular white vinegar.
    2. Cork the bottle
    3.  Let age.


    It's fantastic on mustard greens.  mmmmmmmm !

    I think the carrots may have given it that texture. If you want a tabasco-like consistency then doing what you did last time and straining it should give you a thin hot sauce.

    If you want a little thicker but not too thick (like El Yucatero or similar) maybe boiling it a little more will be enough?

    The bhut jolokia hot sauce was damn good though, and much enjoyed!

    Well I'm wanting Tabasco consistency. What if I made it and strained it and used the paste for something too.

    Strain it and use the paste on chicken breasts or beef. Had a veal heart appetizer recently that was grilled with a chili paste and it was superb.
