  • Ahoy! For the hot sauce I make, I’m pulling whatever hot peppers we have growing so it’s mostly jalapeños, chili and habaneros.

    I slice them and stuff them into a half gallon jar. I do a 4% salt brine. I don’t weigh them down. I instead use a vacuum lid for the jar. Specifically https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0B517637R

    After a week to 10 days i empty the brine into a cup. i add back a half cup of brine, add a half cup of vinegar. I use an immersion blender to get the sauce to proper thickness. I pour it into hot sauce bottles.

    That’s it ;)

    I think your can also boil the hot sauce before pouring into bottles but i haven’t and haven’t really had any issue.

    You?
