I'm Making Pepper Sauce

You mean chow chow?

I understand the basics. Was wondering more about additional spices people have thrown in that work.

he's referring to chow chow being a semi sweet relish with chunks, etc, to spoon over peas and stuff.
I'm assuming when u say pepper sauce, you mean vinegar based? I add salt, white pepper, cayenne and garlic,, or, just pour some Tonys, or slap yer momma.

I'm proud of you

Hmm I would wait until you have hot peppers to do a hot sauce. I pick mine and will play around with mixtures of different peppers and vinegar in the food processor. Food processor really breaks it down to a usable liquid.

I grew a bunch of Tabasco peppers and just have them sitting in bottles of white vinegar in the fridge. Vinegar is pretty hot and can be used whenever you need vinegar and want some heat. I also use the liquid in brines.

That hot vinegar can then be added to the next batch of hot sauce with new peppers in the food processor.

I'll be back in town on the 20th. My mom has been tending to my pepper plants while I'm gone though. Hopefully my mom has a green thumb because the plants were looking great before I left(have around 7 I think). If they're looking good and producing, come over and grab some to make some sauce.

I will! Thanks, Jones.

I had a few that were dried in the bread box Thursday. So Boo threw them in.

Where do you come from?
