AJs Puree or a sauce. Will work for a ferment also. I would add a little bit of fresh things and maybe a slice of cabbage to get fermentation started. https://thehotpepper.com/threads/making-some-puree-today-will-post-pics-of-the-process-its-easy.32602/ I have used frozen chiles for tonnes...

Welcome to THP from the Methow valley...the dry side of the state. ;)

This thread has some suggestions. https://thehotpepper.com/threads/yellow-sauces-keeping-the-color.72236/ Other online comments seem to repeat these suggestions. I have a pear-garlic sauce that turns a very unappealing gray after about 6 months. I have pretty much dropped it from production...

A refrigerated sauce in plastic bottles being sold across the country- Totally wrong label missing all sorts of info- Wondering if the sauce was made in a restaurant, not a processing facility, since the guy is a chef- 😕

so... how many units was your largest production run of spices to date? Should be simple enough to do some math, figure out what your production can be. If you have to limit order size... (Gasp! NOOOOOOoooo!) just tell the customer you can supply 60% of their order by XXX date and the rest...

Welcome to THP! There are detailed instruction in the Making Hot Sauce 101 thread. Put the heated sauce into room temp bottles (previously cleaned), cap and invert into the cardboard boxes the bottles came in. Leave inverted for (5 minutes?) Then squeeze the box diagonal and flip the whole...

By facility, i zm talking about a community kitchen, community center, fraternal organization, church, fire hall.... But a lot depends on the product and licensing requirements. You know all this, just sayiing for the readers...

:lol: Should of said the horses did this on their own.... Hmmm, what could be next? Peace sign? Andy Warhol LOVE?

We did a batch at a different class with frozen spinach also. To do these, a very good BlendTec or similar mixer is needed. Simmer everything well, blender the snot out of the cooked sauce. Or use a fine food sieve. The pea flavor doesnt come thru if there are chiles, cumin, cilantro, apple...

Pics and stuff here https://thehotpepper.com/threads/making-hot-sauce-classes-2016.59243/ We used tamari, which is a major allergen alert. So if you dont want to deal with that, maybe Braggs amino acid? I havent worked with braggs, just know it is an option. We used Wheat-free Tamari.

That is exactly what i am talking about! They tasted your sauce and want to buy it! Just be smart and dont take money or sell on facebook etc until licensed, insured, tested and approved. Sounds like you have the time and expertise to launch and maintain a website for the sauces. I did not...

Welcome to THP! I have used Square at festivals several years ago, it seemed to work good. There have probably been upgrades since then . When i was selling Pure Evil on Scamazon, it linked to Paypal. FWIW regarding a website and online sales, I have been selling sauces and salsa locally...

Congrats on the awards! It's always nice to get positive feedback like that.

fify~ ;)
