heat New sauce...Hawaiian Heat Sweet Sauce

M

Mr-Comfy

I am only a hack when it comes to making sauces as i only do it for family's in the holiday season and for a few mates who love a bite at a BBQ.
I have been told to go sell my sauces at the local small markets but up till this year all has been half hearted as i only grew the basic chilli's, "birds eye and jalapeno and such".
This year i have branched out big time with habbs of all colors and now the exotics and super hots like ghostys and brain strain and direct from Neil at the hippy seed co i have the butch t and a couple others.
I just decided to Branch out from my normal smoky BBQ hot sauces and try some exotic Sweet but warm sauce...
It is made with Pineapple as the main ingredient but i have added grapefruit as a pH lower and a smaller amount of vinegar.
Straight off the cooker and even my son says that it is nice and sweet almost like sweet and sour..:O)
Not a huge amount of heat as it is just a trial as i want the family to try it but i know i can add for more...
It has a very silky feel to it and a great taste with no lumps... It has the normal filler of carrot and onion and a bit of garlic but other wise it is fairly natural except for some turmeric to enhance the orange/ yellow habby colour.
All in all i am impressed with my first batch of sweet sauce and hope to have it at the markets this summer.
I am also thinking of some bragging rights dry pods for the man who wants to be all man a a bbq for a laugh with samples of the super hots and small trials of the Sauces to try.

Looks excellent. I have a friend who's parents are from HI and grow Hawaiian peppers - sweet, sweet-hot and hot. They're all small, red chilis which they dried - all 3 varieties were amazing in flavor.

I made a few batches of sauce with them - I considered pineapple, but after trying the peppers I thought they had enough flavor to carry a sauce on their own as the featured ingredient.

The sweets were incredible - the dried pods tasted almost like sun dried tomatoes. the hots had some good kick. I used about 50-50 sweet and hot in one recipe, and then used all of the sweet-hots in the other. The result was some of the tastiest sauce I've made.

I'm going to try to source the hot & sweet Hawaiian peppers for a LDHS Hawaiian - but that's down the road.

I wish more people were working with these peppers - they're really something special flavor-wise in my opinion. Kind of a pain to work with since they're small (lots of de-capping, etc, like Thai chilis) but it's worth it!

fresh they look like this (with my thanks to www.fruitlovers.com) http://www.fruitlovers.com/Gallery1/HawaiianChilli.jpg
