Ingredients

Instructions

Sauce Thickness Recommendations
For a chunky sauce, use a mini food processor or mince by hand.
For a fluid sauce, use a blender.
Pepper Sauce
Using gloves, cut the peppers and remove the seeds or keep them if you want your sauce EXTRA HOT!
Add the peppers, garlic, thyme, salt, and sugar to the processor and pulse or the blender and purée until you reach your desired texture.
Add the vinegar and lime juice while you process or blend to help emulsify the sauce.
Place the sauce into a sterilized glass jar or bottle store in a cool place or the fridge, and it will last for 4-6 months. Only use plastic or wooden spoons to remove from the jar to avoid spoiling.

Why so much liquid? The flavour is nice but the sauce turned out watery for me. I feel like half the liquid ingredients would have made this a better sauce. I will try it that way next time. Overall good flavour though :)

We're glad you enjoyed the flavor James, thanks for trying out our recipe. For the texture feel free to reduce the amount of liquid in the recipe to meet your needs, the less liquid the spicier it will be. Also note that if the ingredients are blended in a blender for a long time, it tends to be more liquid or watery. Try adding the ingredients to a food processor or blender and lightly pulsing the ingredients, this will help make a thicker, chunkier texture for the sauce. Let us know how it works out and thank you for your comment.

Actually, the flavours were. It just “good” they were fantastic. I am going to try with half the liquid and see how it goes once I finish this. I can’t stop eating it.
