Ingredients

  • 10 ounces cayenne chili peppers
  • 5-6 cloves garlic

Directions

  1. 1

    Chop up the cayenne peppers along with garlic cloves and add them to a pot with the vinegar and 1 teaspoon salt.

  2. 2

    Bring the mix to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and simmer everything for 20 minutes.

    Cool the mixture slightly, then transfer it to a food processor or blender. Process it until the sauce is nice and smooth. Adjust to taste with more salt if desired

  4. 4

    Strain the sauce through a fine sieve if you'd like a smoother sauce, or pour it into bottles as-is for a thicker sauce.
