Hot sauce is easy to make...right?

LOL!!!!

Okay, so I to aleviate the anticipatory symptoms of getting seeds I decided to head to our local market and grab some ingredients to attempt my first hot sauce. I looked at several standard recipies online for guidance and came up with this the other day;


1/4 Cup Vinegar
2 Tablespoons brown sugar
2/5 Cup Mustard
1/2 Chopped Onion
1 Tsp. graded Ginger
2 serano peppers/8 reg. Hab's
1/2 cup water
2 Tbs. Salt
3 Tbs. fine graded Garlic
1 Tomato diced
2 tbs mexican spices (actual name on the bag)

I tried it a couple times before cooling and actually was pretty good....until the beer goggles were yanked from my head the following morning.
At least I did not waste my first round of peppers on it right?

I believe the mustard I read online was of a different type, probably seeds or something lol .
I think I'm going to leave it in the break room at work or something, though maybe not in fear of someone finding out I made it

My dogs are the same way. I've thoroughly coated bites of food in my red habanero sauce, Melinda's Naga Jolokia sauce, and HBD's Trinidad Scorpion sauce, and they still eat it. They just sniff it, lick it, then back away over and over again for a few minutes and then eat it. Then they lick their lips and snort a few times and stare at me like WTF?! It doesn't seem to bother them very much though.

LOL AB...Thats too funny....I can visualize your dogs going through a sniffing ritual before their stomach overrules the nose. My cats go through a similar routine....it just takes longer for them to decide what to do (must be a feline thing I guess)
It has kinda made me wonder if they have the, all to familiar, "morning after burn" like we do...if so, they keep coming back for more just like their masters.

my dog wont come near me or will back away once she see's a hot sauce bottle, she can even smell the hotness & if I point the plate towards the dog (she's like 10 feet away) she'll run.
I guess it didnt help her issue either that I poured hot sauce in her mouth to break her of bad habits of chewing BTW that stop very quickly! LOL

too bad they wipe with their tongue

the burn that keeps on giving
