Excellent recipe man! I had about 35 medium/small reapers and got exactly three 5oz bottles full. Guys at work love this stuff! I’ll be planting more reapers next year…Great job!

My hands are still burning not because of the prep(I used glove in prep) but washing the dishes I did not use gloves. 😁 this is an awesome sauce. I made it from 12 oz and have exactly 4 cups strained thin sauce. I used my outside grill and used N95 mask which helped a lot. Even just doing the dishes inside the home, it still hurts. Tastes amazing and super hot! Thanks for the recipe.

This sounds like the perfect recipe, however, I need to know a way to do this where it will stay good sitting on the table without refrigeration. If I cook it and bottle it hot, will that do it? Or do I need to adjust the ph with vinegar and wreck the flavor?

Ricardo, you can review this page to see cooking times: www.chilipeppermadness.com/recipes/carolina-reaper-hot-sauce/. You can also process all of the ingredients first, then simmer over low heat for 10-15 minutes, then strain for a very similar sauce. I hope this helps. (También puede procesar todos los ingredientes primero, luego hervir a fuego lento durante 10-15 minutos, luego colar para obtener una salsa muy similar.)

You can toast them in a dry pan for a minute or two before rehydrating, which helps loosen them up and release the oils a bit. Definitely builds flavor.

@ChiliPepperMadness 4 жыл бұрын

There is plenty of vinegar to keep the pH low, so it should last for many months or longer, especially in the refrigerator. It's best to test with a pH meter. Shoot for 3.5 or lower for home keeping. Many people like to keep their hot sauce outside of the fridge and have no fear that it will go bad. Others like to keep it refrigerated for safety. I keep mine in the refrigerator.

Also, as it is roasting in the oven, will people in my home smell/ feel the presence of the spice? I am wondering because there are some people in my family who do not eat spicy.

@ChiliPepperMadness 3 жыл бұрын

Michael, as it is already a puree, you can realistically mix it together with other pureed ingredients (onion, carrot, etc) and enough liquid until you achieve your desired consistency. Strain for smoother or keep it thicker. You could even just mix the puree with some water and/or vinegar and a touch of salt (and other seasonings) to make a very simple hot sauce. Let me know how it goes.

@ChiliPepperMadness 3 жыл бұрын

Hot sauces last a LONG time because of the acidity. To make them truly self stable, make sure the pH is 3.5 or lower for home use, and process the bottles in a water bath. Or just refrigerate. Many people don't even bother refrigerating. It's an ongoing debate in the hot sauce community. Enjoy!

@ChiliPepperMadness Жыл бұрын

Vinegar is a strong preservative because of the acidity, so it will have a long shelf life. You can add more acid (vinegar or citrus) to longer keeping. Shelf stable is 4.5 for commercial goods, but it's best to shoot for a pH of 3.5 or lower for home preserving.

@ChiliPepperMadness 4 жыл бұрын

A lot of sauces like this can last a year or longer in the fridge because of the vinegar content. If you get the pH to 3.5 or lower (with enough vinegar and/or citrus), it will last a long time. It can last as long outside of the fridge, though there is debate in the hot sauce community over one should refrigerate or not. I prefer to refrigerate.
