fermenting Ferment Franks?

[Shandley]

Well, it's December and my Cayenne plant is still producing. I believe this willl be the last harvest I do.

Quick question for those who know... Is Franks Hot Sauce cayenne peppers traditionally fermented? We all know Tabasco is and is for years but what about a simple Franks sauce?

According to wikipedia, it's peppers, garlic and spices in vinegar and aged... just like Tabasco... not lacto-fermented

Hmmm... does that just mean sit around in (insert container here) for (insert amount of time here)?

I'd say so, yup.
