How to Make Basic [Hot] Vinegar Sauce

The basic formula for a homemade hot sauce is usually a combination of peppers, white or apple cider vinegar, spices, other fruits and vegetables, and salt. Making your own sauces can be a great way to experiment and create new flavors.

Basic steps:

  • Clean and roughly chop peppers
  • Combine 2 parts vinegar with 1 part water in a pot
  • Add peppers and other desired ingredients to vinegar (we like adding sweet fruits and sugars)
  • Boil for 5-10 minutes
  • Allow to cool
  • Blend until desired smoothness is reached
  • If sauce is too thick, add a few tbsp of water at a time and blend until it is the right viscosity

Recommended Ingredients to use in Hot Sauces:

  • Peppers (Habaneros, jalapeños, bell peppers, and ghost peppers are great)
  • Garlic & onions
  • Tropical fruits (pineapple, mango, peach, apricot)
  • Apple cider (for sweetness)
  • Cumin
  • Turmeric
  • Olive oil (for texture)
  • Any other fruits and vegetables!
