- 2 cups distilled white vinegar
- 3 cloves of garlic peeled
- 6 fresh Habanero chilies seeds and stems discarded, roughly chopped
- 5 Lemon Drop chilies or any other small hot pepper variety seeds and stems removed, roughly chopped
- 8 Jalapeño chilies seeds and stems discarded, chopped roughly
- ¼ teaspoon dried oregano
- ¼ teaspoon ground cumin
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- ½ teaspoon mustard powder
- Salt and freshly cracked black pepper to taste
- 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice adds a tangy depth
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika introduces a smoky richness
Start by prepping the peppers. Remove the seeds and stems from the Habanero and Jalapeño peppers. I find it’s safer to wear gloves here. Trust me, those oils can linger, and you don’t want to accidentally rub your eyes later.
In a blender or food processor, combine the chopped peppers, peeled garlic, and white vinegar. Blend until smooth. The smell should be both pungent and tantalizing – a sure sign you’re onto something great!
Add in the oregano, cumin, onion powder, mustard powder, lime juice, and smoked paprika to the blended mixture. Blend again until all ingredients are well incorporated.
Taste your sauce. Adjust the seasoning with salt and black pepper. This is where personal preference comes in. If you crave more heat, toss in a jalapeño and blend again!
Pour your freshly made sauce into an airtight container. If you want to use it immediately, go ahead and dive in!
- Use Fresh Ingredients: Whenever you can, opt for fresh peppers. They increase the sauce’s flavor profile significantly.
- Heat Level Control: If you’re cautious about spice, start with fewer Habaneros and add them gradually according to your preference.
- Let It Rest: For the ultimate flavor, let the sauce sit in the fridge for a few hours or overnight. The ingredients meld beautifully, resulting in a deeper taste.
- Pairing Is Key: This sauce isn’t just for wings. Use it as a marinade for grilled shrimp, a spicy dip, or a flavor booster in soups.
- Experiment with Textures: If you desire a thicker sauce, you could add a bit of cornstarch mixed with water and heat it in a pan until it thickens.
