Homemade Hot Sauce
I had two mangoes left over from making mango chutney. I’m currently a little (just a little) obsessed with canning. I decided to see what else I could make with mangoes. I spent some time googling and started eying hot sauce recipes. I eventually found this one. I’ve looked in multiple stores over the last few days in my quest for habarenos to no avail. Instead we bought a mix of hot peppers – thai chillies, scotch bonnets, long hot red peppers, and so on. And, I doubled the recipe as I had two mangoes left.
I ended up with 5 bottles and a total of 1.25L of hot sauce. In our quick taste test, this hot sauce is sweet at first with a definite kick a few seconds down the road. I guess you could say it sneaks up on you. The true test will come when our friend Josh gives it a go…

i do believe a final photo shoot of all your canning progress is going to be required soon!
I agree with angela!
and I wish I could have hot sauce. I used to looooove the sweet/hot combo…
I’m allergic to peppers though:(
you should make loaf of bread with some onions and peppers in it… something very rich and savory… then make it french toast(i use soft tofu for mine when it’s vegan) and put a little of that hot sauce on it… mmm with a side of those curried adzuki beans you mentioned a while back and a dollop of sour cream. that would be yummy.
maybe that’s too weird?
