It's a southern thing... I searched to see if there was another thread on this. There was one titled Pepper Sauce but after reading it I saw that person was making Hot Sauce. Hot Sauce and Pepper Sauce are 2 entirely different things, just ask a southerner.
I made some pepper sauce today, a simple recipe I got from a friend. I like it on the hot side but my friend makes his with Ghost Peppers. Jeez... all you have to do is wave the bottle over your turnip greens. That stuff is waaay to hot for me.
From the garden I used the last of the cayennes, one small serrano pepper sliced in half, two small jalapenos, also sliced in half. I added a tbsp of peppercorns and 3 small crushed pieces of garlic. I used 2/3rd apple cider vinegar and 1/3 white wine vinegar.
It's definitely hot. if I need to cool it off I'll change the vinegar a couple of times.
Any other southerners want to share their pepper sauce recipe?
