Hot! Hot! Hot!

September 21st, 2009 at 02:02 pm

I am trying to make some homemade hot sauce. The hot peppers went just plumb crazy this year. So I washed and stemmed them, put them thru the food processor, and cooked them down in the crockpot, with a little salt, vinegar and water. OMG! It's a good thing that the weather is nice, cause I opened all of the windows in the kitchen, and turned on a fan! I am standing as far away as I can reach every time I lift the lid! My Hubby will love it! If I live long enough to can it. I did let it cool overnight, and then food process it again, so it would be nice and smooth. Now its just reheating, and then into 1/2 pint jars. If I survive, I will make another batch, (sucker)! I hate to throw anything away, even hot peppers. So, I won't have to make more for a decade, that's planning ahead, right? As long as it doesn't eat thru the lids, I can't imagine a bug or bacteria brave enough to break into THOSE jars.

    DH has a blender dedicated just to red Savina habaneros! DH also has a way of drying and smoking the peppers to make a powder that can be sprinkled.

    The other night I was making dinner, chopping what I thought were bell peppers from my FIL's garden. All of a sudden I felt like I couldn't breathe. I went out and asked DH if the little yellow things were really hot peppers?? I could not go back into the kitchen that night! I'm a wimp.
