is there a hot sauce bible?

[fire in the hole!]

i have this book, the bbq bible, that details a bunch of different types of bbq sauce, talking about the origins of different types of sauce, has a few basic recipes for each style etc.. im looking for the same info but for hot sauces-
it would be nice to have one source that says louisiana hot sauce is fermented with this and sometimes that...sriracha is this, chipotle is this etc.. just wanting to learn about different sauce types, common ingredients used and what determines how its processed. im hungry for info lol

I've owned that one for 15 years, it has some great recipes in it.

Got mine a couple of days ago too... Looks like it has some good recipes in there! I'm definitely going to try a couple when I get enough ripe tabascos. I have hundreds on the plant, but only get a couple ripe at a time. Freeze and wait... sigh

This site is the pepper bible! I think that makes us the pepper apostles.

I am going to get a copy myself.

its really informative, though slightly dated (i believe it was published in the mid 90s) but definitely full of good information- it was a great buy

Does anyone know the authors, Dave and Chuck?

 

[charlesquik]

Yes it kind of dated... a WHOLE  bunch of new peppers since then.

Just substitute the newer peppers for the older ones in the book, it works great!
