Uncle Thom's Face Melting Hot Sauce
Recipe Description
This is a hot sauce that I concocted in my kitchen. It's deadly. Look out! You can, and should, tailor this concoction to your own taste. Mine is deadly hot. (Think hotter than the "El Yucatan Green Habanero sauce" with more flavor and a bit more "pop.") I used a mix of Jalepeno, Serrano and Habanero peppers to achieve a mixture of fruity flavor with burn you can't believe. You can also make it with a variation on the chunkiness of the sauce.Ingredients
- 4 or 5 Habanero peppers (Orange or Red)File:0218101711-00.jpg|thumb|A cell phone picture of some of the peppers used
- 5 Serrano peppers
- 1 Jalapeno pepper
- 1/4 of a large white onion
- 12 oz of tomato sauce
- 1 clove of garlic
- 1 tablespoon of white vinegar
- 3 tablespoons of brown sugar (or to taste)
- Roast and flay all of the peppers. If you're using any peppers that are 10,000 Scoville Units or hotter, make sure to wear laytex/nylon gloves and wear goggles when preparing them. When I roast peppers, I hold them over a gas burner using tongs.
- Skin and dice your onion and garlic.
- Puree the onion and garlic in a food processor.
- Place the onion, garlic and tomato sauce in a frying pan (do not heat, yet).
- Now comes the part where you'll want to wear your gloves and goggles: if you want to reduce the burn of the peppers you can remove the seeds and membranes. I generally leave them. Dice the peppers, remove the stems and then use the food processor to work them down to whatever size you want each individual piece to be. Pureeing will generally yield a smoother sauces.
- Now, mix the peppers in with the rest of the ingredients and bring it to a boil. (Keep your goggles on, at least, as the fumes from this can, and will, burn your eyes pretty badly)
- Add the brown sugar and vinegar and work all the ingredients together.
- Poor from pan and refrigerate. Only use when you're looking for a good, hearty burn.
