This sauce by Simpatica / Laurelhurst Market here in Portland is really earning its keep on spicy. It's very intense, hot ghost chili flavor in an apple cider vinegar base, but it's very flavorful. I like ghost chili better than habanero because the heat is most spread around and it seems to spread it out over a longer period of time instead of the just insanely intense feel of habaneros, but that could just be how they've mixed this, I don't know. Really good.

Try pouring hot sauce on bland foods that you would normally eat, like salad or cereal

To make your own hot sauce, you must first create the Universe. Then it's a heavy focus on creating vinegar and peppers, I think God did that on day 3.

i figured it would be a better idea to take some peppers/salt and mash them up with a mortar and pestle while slowly adding vinegar then adding some other spices to it and letting it age a bit in some kind of container. Though my only real idea behind it is how they make tabasco sauce.

that sounds like a fun project! probably best done with adequate ventilation, I'd imagine.

A cursory google shows that it's pretty easy, you just have to saute the peppers/veggies first, then blend, then age. You could probably add some wood spirals to the aging vessel too. I want to try this some time, that looks like a fun project.

I'm going to talk to my friends who homebrew if they would like some spicy wood spirals for a beer they would make. This sounds like a fun project I'm likely going to forget about.

Nah you gotta render the peppers at heat

e: yeah and add seasoning and w.e like bay leaves as it cooks down then vinegar and w.e then bottle

someone taught me some other way of organically preserving salsa verde / hot sauce but I don't remember it now I'm a failure

a quick PSA to any poor college-yobbers who are looking for a cool gift to make mom super happy :)



spicy olive oil bottles are an easy, cost-effective way of putting a lot of thought into a gift for someone special! you can stick to simple blends like just sticking in some basil/oregano, or go crazy with all sorts of hot-peppers and other assortments.

Fantastic to cook with, as a topping on pizza or anything else you might need! keep it in mind! :coolspot:

yeah you can use them as some pretty nifty kitchen decorations, and they'll only get more flavorful with time so there's no rush to use it all quickly.

edit: I forgot to mention that you should let it steep for at least two weeks before using! :)
If you use monosaturated oils, those perish pretty quickly so be careful!

Edit edit: I also just read somewhere that you should take out garlic cloves within a few days, leaving them in can lead to botulism. Very unbyob.

The botulinum toxin causes intense paralysis up to an including the heart, and is by far the most lethal toxin known to man, synthetic or natural, with a lethal dose of 1.3-2.1ng/kg in the average person.

The bacteria that produces it is in nearly every food, and thrives in anaerobic environments, at temperatures from 32 to 120 fahrenheit or so. So surrounded by oil at room temperature is bad.

You could put it in your fridge tho and probably be okay.

At 2.1 nanograms/kilogram lethal rate, 1 kilogram of botulinum toxin could kill every human being on the planet (0.9114).

I feel so bad about this I will personally taste test any oil infusion you guys make before giving it to your loved ones. I'll even post a not-so condescending review as I potentially lay quarantined on my deathbed, forced to type using a plastic apparatus with my teeth.
