Decided to make a couple of sauces before the football games today.  Experimented with some fruit in both sauces, which is a new wrinkle for me.  The red sauce is mostly Cayenne peppers with mango and 2 reapers for some extra heat.  The yellow is a mix of Lemon Drop, Yellow Bhuts and pineapple.  We will see how they taste after they rest for a few weeks.

Hit me up with the yellow sauce.I cant seem to keep the deep yellow color.
 
 
Thanks Randy.  First time making a yellow sauce for me.  The color held pretty well and hopefully will taste ok after it sits for a few weeks.   
 
9 oz Lemon Drop peppers (a Burpee variety I picked up at a local garden center)
1 oz Yellow Bhuts
1/4 oz fresh ginger
1 onion
1 tbspn olive oil
2 cups water
2 cups pineapple
1 cup combination of juice from 2 lemons and the rest vinegar
 
I sauté the peppers, onion and ginger in the olive oil for 5 minutes on high heat.  Then add the water, cook for about 30 minutes on high heat or until most of the water is evaporated.  Then i let it cool.  After it has cooled enough it goes into the blender on a low setting,  As it is mixing in the blender the lemon juice/vinegar combo is added and continue to blend until everything is incorporated.  Then it goes through the food mill to remove the seeds and skins of the peppers.  This sauce has to go in the fridge, to make it shelf stable i would just cook it again after the food mill and than hot fill the woozies.
This filled 2 12 oz woozies for me.   
 
I make this pretty dank fruit hot sauce with papaya, citrus juice, garlic and habaneros, definitely worth a try if you like papaya. I'm not big on store bought papaya because it smells like butthole, but the papayas I grow lack that pungent odor. With that being said, I've used more pungent over-ripened papaya and it still tasted great
 
tecten: Nice colour sauces!
 
 
The last year I made a pineaple sauce with ginger, very similar to your recipe, but without olive and was liked me much. i did use jamaicans, lemon drops and trinidad scorpions, if I remember correctly
 
I think that I make again these sauce.
 
I have not been updating this as I have been making sauces.  Here is an update on the sauces I have made so far this year.
