Serrano Pepper Hot Sauce. 9.28.2021

 Here is the fermented hot sauce I made from the Serrano peppers.  It came out pretty good.  Nice and hot but not hot enough to strip the paint from a 1963 Buick LeSabre.

Peppers after fermenting.

Then I processed them along with 1 tsp sugar and 1/3 cup of the brine. The sugar will ferment with time to help preserve the hot sauce.

This made about 2/3 of a pint of sauce. I did the same with the Korean peppers. That sauce did not come out as hot.

Also the Korean peppers were a bit wrinkly from sittin out a week before fermenting. The freshly fermented Serranos gave a much smoother texture.
