Fermented Cayenne Hot Sauce Recipe: From Garden to Jar
Рет қаралды 15,338
Күн бұрынLet's me show you a fermented Cayenne Hot Sauce recipe to try at home. I have a surplus of peppers every year and absolute love to use them in a variety of recipes. I've made hot sauce with them but never a fermented hot sauce. So, I first harvested some cayenne's and jalapeno's, with some other peppers, from the garden, fermented them with homegrown Italian soft-neck garlic in a brine, blended it up, cooked it and bottled it. Let me show you how!

I really loved this recipe and perfect timing. I have leftover peppers and need to try this out first time. How much vinegar and garlic do you recommend for let’s say a half blender size of peppers? Thank you.
@LouisianaSimpleLiving 2 жыл бұрын
I would recommend starting at no more than 1/2 cup of vinegar and the garlic really depends on how much you like. I ended up putting about 6 or 7 cloves in the hot sauce I made. But , I do really like garlic. I added the garlic to the peppers and fermented both of them. I have only used distilled white vinegar thus far but plan on venturing out a bit with maybe some rice wine or apple cider vinegar next time. Thanks for the comment as it's truly appreciated. I like checking out your channel as well!

Hello, thank you for this recipe. Every year I produce my own Louisiana sauce, but after having mixed fermented peppers with a small amount of brine, I measure the ph. If it's too near from 4, I add more brine and mix again. Sometimes it is necessary to add vinegar, but it is rare. The goal is to reach a ph of 3 or slightly under. Such an acidity inhibits fermentation totally, lactobacillus is not killed but in deep sleep. Shelf stability totally ok, no need to cook. Vive la Louisiane!

At 11:27 you were dicing (onions?) but no explanation on how much and what you did with them. I’m currently using your method for a burrito pepper and a Korean pepper sauce. Just wondering about how that “raw” comes into play. Thanks for sharing and wishing you and yours a blessed New Years from central Florida.

Cayenne is my go-to "mild" hot pepper. Serrano is my go-to for flavor (love it) but it has a bit more kick than cayenne for sure. I "hope" to one day breed a pepper that has the taste of serrano but the heat of cayenne.
@LouisianaSimpleLiving 11 ай бұрын
I absolutely love Cayenne for my fermented hot sauce. I've grown Serrano in the past but didn't use it to make some hot sauce. I will have to do that going forward. Do you ferment the Serrano peppers and make hot sauce?
@NotSoCrazyNinja 11 ай бұрын
@@LouisianaSimpleLiving I'm totally new to making my own hot sauce. I do know that I can't find any serrano pepper based hot sauces anywhere where I live, but cayenne based sauces are easy to find. I caught the pepper growing bug and will end up making my own sauces from my own grown peppers at some point. This year has been bad healthwise so I don't have much expectation for this year, but next year, watch out lol. I can use the off time over winter to play around I'm sure with recipes. My recent health issue killed most of my pepper grow (indoor) but it also showed me that pepper plants are very tough. I thought they were all dead, no watering for like three months. I watered them anyway and most of them started greening back up and put out new leaves. New respect for the plants.

I ferment my hot sauce. It's not too hard of a process as you can see. I've been set back myself a bit with a minor surgery and now my Mom's in Hospice. I know where you are coming form. Hope your health continues to improve and you grow some killer Serrano peppers and maybe even make some hot sauce. Thanks for sharing on the channel and Garden on!!

Hi...i have noticed you are fermenting with seed also, does it enhance the flavor further, also you are not keeping some seed for growing them again >>> Thanks
@LouisianaSimpleLiving Жыл бұрын
The seeds do absolutely provide flavor and heat to the fermented peppers. So, yes, I keep them in the fermentation process on purpose. Plus, it makes the slicing and placing in jars easier. As for the seeds, I already have some pulled and dried for that purpose. This is the 4th pepper harvest I've had from my garden this year! Thanks for watching and the questions!!

@@LouisianaSimpleLiving Fermenting in a vacuum bag is much faster and almost zero chance of your ferment going bad. One thing you need to be cautious about is the bag can explode if you don't keep an eye on it. when the bag is full of CO2 I poke a small hole in the top of the bag with a toothpick or thumb tack. This keeps enough positive pressure to keep air out.

Black gloves are terrible. This is an occasion where gloves are 100% a go but in general using gloves just means you arnt washing your hands. The black gloves specifically give a false sense of cleanliness. Shiny is perceived as sexy and good but really its just dirty.

No, gloves mean I wear contact lens and have to put my fingers in my eyes. In this case, black gloves mean no burn to eyes.
