    Aji Lemon Drop/Yellow Mango/Pineapple Sauce

    This is the sauce I had to do the least amount of tweaking to make it work. A bit of ACV, palm sugar and water, and its a go. The only other ingredients were a shallot and some garlic and a splash of Meyer lemon juice. I let it go for about a month. I could have let it go way longer, but meh...

    Chocolate Carolina Reaper Sauce

    Fermented a ton of Reapers and Elephant Garlic with some sourwood honey in a 2.5% brine. Silicon self-burping lid. Pumped the excess oxygen out, and let it go for a month and a half. I really should let it go longer, but it seemed like it had bubbled its last bubble, so what the Hell? Put the...

    First Sauce of the Fall

    About two months ago I started a 2.5% ferment with layers of Reaper, Chocolate Doughah, and Fatalii peppers with chunks of dragon fruit and elephant garlic and shallots. It stopped bubbling a few days ago, so I decided to see how it was going to be. No nasties. I use the air locks with a pump...

    fermenting Second Ferment

    Okay. The first ferment turned out pretty well. I only let it go a few days. So, I started a second one. This one is a bit more extreme. Filled a mason jar with the following: Carolina Reapers (10 or so) Chocolate Moruga Scorpions (again, 10 or so) Chocolate Bhutlahs (10?) Chocolate Habs (15)...

    fermenting First Ferment

    So... got some silicon waterless lids. Seem nice enough. Chopped up a bunch of Jonahs Yellow Brain Strain, Fataliis, Datils and Chocolate Bhutlah peppers, a few teaspoons of salt and a little over a cup of water. This is after a few days. Water is cloudy on the bottom. https://ibb.co/hFHdvz...

    fermenting Second Ferment

    Reapers, Chocolate Habs, Fatalii and Ghost peppers. Put about a tablespoon for about two cups. Tasted it. Yep... salty. I did a rougher chop this time around as my blender, measuring cups and what not are in moving boxes. It's now sitting in a cabinet. I will resist the urge to open this one...

    fermenting First Ferment

    Okay. I had a bunch of frozen peppers from last season and a few early-turners from this season. I added 1tbsp of salt per cup of water and threw a little extra because I'm a bit scared of botulism or other nasties. After a week nothing. I tasted it and it was super-duper salty. I strained...

    Reaper Madness, Take 1

    First... pics. Finally. These are a few of the peppers I'm using. Again, Reapers and Scorpions with some Ghost, Red Habs, Bullet Habs (love these!), and pequin peppers. I didn't ferment because the fermenting apparatus is still in the mail. So, I built a pepper gastrique. After that, I...

    Second Sauce of the Summer

    Pics coming soon. The second summer sauce is a desert sauce. I used fresh blueberries, Moruga Scorpions and wild Chiltepin peppers (what a bizarre looking plant!). Got the blueberries going in a simple syrup. While reducing, I started another simple syrup infused with the peppers. After...

    First sauce of the summer

    Greetings. Just found this place. Figured I'd post after I made something worthy of reporting. There's a wealth of information here, so I'm stoked I found this place. So... first sauce of the season. A Strawberry-Reaper-Moruga hot sauce. Threw in a few White Bullet Habs as well as some...
