Pure Seven

[AlabamaJack]

I decided to use my last 2 pounds of fresh 7 Pots today for my second attempt at hot sauce. Got 9 coozies total...so there is a little less than 1/4 pound (~100 grams) of 7 Pot peppers in each bottle...I used 156 total pods....

Any comments/suggestions/criticism gladly accepted...

I am calling it Pure Seven because that is what it is.

So, how many bottles do you have left?

I dont think that 9 woozies would have lasted long Mr Pepperfreak!

 

[SanSoo]

That looks really nasty. Do you ship out-of-state? Where's my wallet...

 

[Nova]

Dudes it an old thread!!

 

[The Hot Pepper]

Dudes it an old thread!!

So?

 

[smariotti]

I'm thinking blackened fish.

I'm thinking blackened TONGUE. I mean, if I tried it. I'll bet that's absolutely incendiary stuff.

 

[SanSoo]

Dudes it an old thread!!

Sorry. I knew AJ was harvesting and I saw the new posts and, well, I got sucked into the Vortex!

 

[Nova]

So?

Alright.....

AJ how many bottles of this do you have left??

 

[The Hot Pepper]

He wasn't selling them, this is the discussion area, so it's still relevant

 

[Pepperfreak]

The only reason why I asked how many he had left was because he said it was too hot for him. So, I was assuming that he was using it sparingly.

...yup...you are right...absolute fire...actually too hot for me...

 

[AlabamaJack]

thanks for all the compliments gents...

100 gms pepper
30 ml vinegar
30 ml lime juice
pinch of sea salt

basically the same recipe I use for the puree but I use lime juice and half the vinegar...

I have three bottles left from last year...I sold three ( @ $15 each )to some guys I used to work with and gave a couple away as gifts...I think it is actually hotter this year than it was when I put it up...

Wow! You could win awards for that based just on the way it looks. If red is a warning colour then your sauce says "STAY AWAY SUCKER!" Definitely needs a safety warning

 

[patrick]

So you've scarfed up three bottles in less than a year. You're a heat eating monster AJ no doubt about it. What have you been using this with?

 

[AlabamaJack]

I use it is soups/chile, its best in bloody marys...and to cook with when I want heat...use it in my salsa to kick the heat up too...

It is really good when mixed with food or drink...

Thanks AJ. I'm going to spin up a batch this weekend. This sauce probably tastes best with some age, do you agree? How many 7 pods make 100grams? I have about 50 harvested from just one plant that have the shape of the famous "brain strain". I've seen other strains that look more oblong and pointy on the end.

 

[AlabamaJack]

it takes about 17 pods to make 100...pods weigh between 5-7 gms each...or at least mine do this time of year...

and yes, aging a couple of weeks seems to improve the heat and flavor...

Meter adjustment forthcoming....

 

[CayenneLover]

Would prolly kill me.. but that looks delicious. Great job bro!

 

[chillilover]

Nice job....cool color. I was just wondering how long it will keep? With so many peppers per bottle did you put enough vinegar to get a low ph?

 

[inolan22]

That sauce looks wicked!

Is there some type of guide out there that tells you specific ph needed to can/preserve etc?
