Habanero Hot Sauce Recipe

Awesome dude!

What is the shelf life like?

maybe a bit of a stupid question but if i plan on adding something like a mango or kiwi, would i simmer that with everything else or throw it in right before blending it?

I'm going to make this soon. I hope to replicate the "Sontava" brand. It was our favorite, but they no longer make it.

This sounds amazing

Another great video Mike!... I'm a chef by trade and I'm going to try that when I grow the orange habanero this year and I'm also considering Fresno's and I'm going to make sauce with both of them. I like the sweet potato thing with the habanero. That sounds very interesting. I think I'm going to experiment and when I find the right recipe I'm looking for I will share it with you! Thanks again!

Love all your recipes! I like to add a quarter tsp of garam masala it gives it a nice middle eastern flavor.

Hi. What about roasting or maybe smoking the chilli and veg? That work?

I am going to make this one....thank you

I add sour orange juice. It goes really well with habanero peppers.

Great stuff

my version includes a couple of Fresno's, pineapple and a chunk of apple! I also don't strain mine because I like the consistency better.

Once it is done, does it have to kept in the refrigerator or can I put it on the pantry? Great videos and thank you.

I noticed you didn't use any "powdered" seasonings (besided pepper), such as garlic powder - any reason why? Will it make the texture of the sauce "grainy"?

What is the size of your vinegar cup?

So pumped to make this in a couple weeks when my peppers are ready! Thanks for the recipe!

New to the hot sauce game, I'm harvesting my habaneros tomorrow and going to definitely try this recipe and a few others. How.long will this hit sauce keep when refrigerated?

Added the juice of two limes from the trees outside my villa in Saudi, awesome!

Should ingredients reach the boiling temperature and then lowering the temperature or it is not necessarily? I have about 40 habaneros from one plant and i decided to make my hot sauce for the first time 🤟

But I will try it. Especially with the carrots never thought about it. Thank you for THÁT tip.

Habaneros are so good. Nice heat, sweet flavor. I am ready bro lets gooooo!

Used Orange instead of red but it was good

Carrot is a major ingredient in a famous Belize hot sauce Marrie Sharp, a little credit would be appropriate.

add some pineapple or blueberry, gives it a fruity flavor.

I made your hot sauce, but added mangoes after The other ingredients cooked and then blended it. But it’s been over six months now and the sauce is not as hot as it was when I first made it, I do keep it in the refrigerator. Is there a reason why it lost some of its heat?

How do you feel about freezing peppers for later use? Does that change the end flavor at all? Thanks! Your sauce looks amazing!

Brotherman mentioned mango and he went right to the islands in his mind 🤙🤙

I want to upscale this recipe times six. I'm thinking that 6 cups of vinegar is too much. Any thoughts?

Sir thanks for your recipes.
I am Lebanese and we tend to use a lot of olive oil whenever we can.
Can we add olive oil here?

Hey mate - loved the video. What to do if the sauce turns out too thin and needs thickening?
Many thanks from Australia 🇦🇺 👍

Doh 🤦‍♂️ Should have watched this one first. Thanks for sharing 👍

This is a great recipe! I took a chance and made a large batch to give for Christmas gifts, using the hot fill and flip method. Still getting compliments and requests for more. Thanks a lot Mike! Looking forward to trying more of your vast library of recipes!

Loved this. But you should Try and make us A Ghost Pepper sauce

Made this today with plain ol' yellow habaneros. Couldn't find my paprika so I substituted a pinch of pasilla powder, went to put the pasilla back and found the paprika hiding behind it :). And yes, I added it too.

It came out wonderfully, gonna try the Red Savina base next but one of them is gonna be my new base for sure. Def want to try swapping carrots for sweet potato and experiment with cutting the vinegar with lime and/or lemon juice. Oh, and about a million pepper variations :).

P.S. Would definitely love to see you go commercial with one of your sauces. Or ten :). I'll be all over that pre-order link.

Thank you very much for this recipe. I made it and it came out amazingly delicious❤

I cook my own hot sauces, too. I've got Habaneros growing in my garden right now, and when I have enough, I am going to try this recipe.

I am a major spicehead myself. I love it; I will be making this soon! I will need it to make your chicken recipe. Excellent work!!! 👍👍

Did you simmer this on medium low?

awesome! my first garden habaneros ripened so looking forward to making this!

Thank you for another fantastic tutorial!! I looked on your channel for a green habanero hot sauce, but didn't see one. It's a long story, but anyhoot, we have 5 medium green habanero's. Have you ever made a hot sauce with the green ones? Any suggestions? It will be a small batch unless I use some of my frozen scotch bonnet and/or green Thai chilies. So far my notes are:
- green habanero 5
- carrot 1/4
- AVC (apple cider vinegar) 1/4
- onion 1/4
- orange bell pepper 1/2
- salt 1/4 - 1/2 tsp
- cane sugar 1/4 tsp
- Ngò Gai in Vietnamese; Chadon Beni in Trinada; or another name is Culantro/Sawtooth Herb 4-5 leaves

I add pineapple gives it a sweet taste

Made this last weekend and everybody at my office agrees its the best hot sauce any of us have ever had. Coming from Buffalo, NY... that's a big deal. Excited to make another batch! Thanks for the videos!

What's a good substitute for sweet paprika?

Maybe this will be useful for somebody)
THINGS YOU’LL NEED( IM METRIC UNITS)
100 grams chopped habanero peppers seeds/innards included
28 grams chopped carrot
28 grams chopped garlic
14 grams chopped shallot
240 milliliters distilled white vinegar
1/4 teaspoon sweet paprika
1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
1/4 teaspoon sea salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Couldn't convert teaspoons to gramms because every spice has different density.

I'm waiting for my habaneros to ripen up.......the fall clock is ticking here in NJ! Can't wait to give this one a try!

Is this only for fresh use? Not shelf stable?

Gonna try this out! My habanero plant made a LOT of peppers this year. So mine will have extra habaneros in it!

I’m gonna make this in a few days. I want to add peach, would you keep the carrot if you add a fruit? I’m thinking yes, but curious

Made my first hot sauce, i burn it a little. But to my surprise it gave a light brown rich color. And the heat was very distinctive with tasty flavor. Good back of the throat tingle. A little sweat on the head😅 but over powerful heat. You can taste the food. The response from Co workers. Consistently flow was favorable, i was told. Good first time go and positive feedback. ❤ from Chicago big reg.

Do you like a LITTLE garlic or LOTS OF garlic in your hot sauce?
