In this episode, we make our own homemade sriracha. It's easy, you can customize it to your own taste, and this way, even when there's a sriracha shortage you're covered.
Ingredients:
1 lb red fresno or jalapeno peppers
A few habaneros (optional if you like extra heat)
1/4 cup water
6 cloves garlic
2 Tbs brown sugar
1 1/2 Tbs white sugar
1 Tbs salt
1/3 cup white vinegar
Recipe:
Cut the tops off of your peppers (you can also remove most of the seeds if you want to reduce the heat of your sauce)
Blend all your ingredients, except the vinegar, in a blender
Pour into a mason jar
Let ferment in a cabinet for 3 to 7ish days
Make sure to remove the top of your jar once a day to "burp" your sauce and stir
Once your sauce is fermented to your liking, add the vinegar and blend again
Pour mixture through a strainer to remove the seeds and anything that didn't blend smooth, you should have a smooth red sauce at this point
Pour sauce into a sauce pot and on medium heat, bring to a simmer and let simmer for 7 - 10 minutes to thicken, stirring occasionally
Let cool, and pout into the jar or bottle of your choice
Enjoy!
