Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Spicy Homemade Hot Sauce.
Step 1
To create a delicious homemade hot sauce, start by grabbing a small saucepan and combining 1 cup of water with white vinegar, dried pequin peppers, dried arbol peppers, minced garlic, ground paprika, onion flakes, and a pinch of salt.
Step 2
Place the saucepan over medium heat and warm the mixture until it reaches a cozy 180°F (82°C).
Step 3
Keep it at this temperature for about 10 minutes; this is where the magic happens as the flavors blend beautifully together.
Step 4
Once the time is up, take the saucepan off the heat and let it cool for around 15 minutes in the blender until it reaches room temperature.
Step 5
While that’s cooling, take a small bowl and mix 2 tablespoons of cold water with xanthan gum until it’s well combined and smooth.
Step 6
Now, add this xanthan gum mixture to your cooled pepper blend in the blender and give it a whirl for about 30 seconds until everything is silky and smooth.
Step 7
Finally, pour your vibrant hot sauce into a bottle and store it in the refrigerator.
Step 8
It’ll stay fresh and flavorful for up to 9 months, ready to spice up your meals whenever you need a kick! Enjoy your homemade creation and the satisfaction of knowing exactly what’s in your sauce!.
