📝 Preparation Steps
1
Remove the stems from the jalapeños and slice each in half lengthwise. Use a spoon to remove the seeds for less heat if desired.
2
Add the jalapeños to a blender along with the garlic, salt, 2 tablespoons vinegar and water.
3
Blend on high until totally smooth. This may take several minutes depending on your blender. Taste and add more salt and/or vinegar if desired.
4
Transfer hot sauce to a jar and refrigerate for up to 3 months.
5
If desired, you can ferment the hot sauce by leaving the jar out at room temperature, covered, for about a day. This will give it a deeper, more interesting flavor. Refrigerate after fermenting.
6
You can also cook the hot sauce for a milder, more mellow flavor. Pour the mixture into a sauce pan and cook, stirring constantly, over medium heat until the color changes to a deeper, duller green; about ⏱️ 2 minutes. Remove from heat and allow to cool before transferring to a jar.
7
All three methods produce excellent results. Experiment with them until you find what flavor works best for you!
