Habanero Hot Sauce
A swedish spin on mulled wine. A staple in the Stenquist holidays.
Ingredients
- 6 garlic cloves, unpeeled
- 1/2cup peeled, roughly chopped carrot (you’ll need 1 medium carrot)
- 1/2cup roughly chopped white onion (you’ll need about half of a small onion)
- 12medium (about 5 ounces)orange habanero chiles, stemmed
- 1cup apple cider vinegar
- About 2teaspoons Salt
- 1/4teaspoon Sugar
Instructions
-
Roast the garlic in a skillet over medium heat, turning regularly until soft and blackened in spots, 10 to 15 minutes. Cool and peel.
-
In a small saucepan, combine the carrot, onion and habanero chiles with the vinegar and 1 cup water. Partially cover and simmer over medium-low heat until the carrots are thoroughly tender, about 10 minutes. Pour into a blender jar, add the roasted garlic, salt and sugar. Blend until smooth. Thin with a little additional water if you think your hot sauce is too thick. Taste and season with additional salt if you think necessary.
-
Pour into jars or bottles and store in the refrigerator until you’re ready to add some dazzle to a dish.
Notes
I’ve added Grapefruit and Lime juice to give it a nice citrus kick.
