Superhot Concentrate

I had to figure a way to preserve my superhot harvest over the past two weeks and I decided to simply add a little vinegar and salt to the blended peppers and pressure can them...

I ended up with 14 8 ounce jars of concentrate. The fresh taste of the pods remains and I can use this various ways including making hot sauce with them...

A pic of the jars...2 Dorset Naga, 2 Trinidad Scorpion, 3 Yellow Trinidad Scorpion, and 7 7 Pots...

This will get me thru the winter I am sure...thank you Billyboy for the recipe...

100 grams pepper
60ml vinegar
pinch of salt
1 Tbsp sugar

Man looks great AJ! I bet even a dip on the end of a toothpick in the 7 Pot concentrate will be more than most can handle. My hot sauces made with that pepper even at a 5% concentration is way too hot. Your going to have to use that stuff sparingly. Ouch.

the stuff is pretty stout I will say...dipped a spoon in the 7 pot, shook it off, stirred a bloody mary with it and it is delicious...

Tonight I will be making Red Savina Paste....probably will get about 18 half pint jars of it...then tomorrow night, I will be making Chocolate Habanero paste....I have to do something with peppers every day to keep up and that is not counting the dehydrator running 24/7...

Thanks a lot, I have no idea why I didn't look online for them! I found an online store over here that sells pretty similiar jars for a decent price. I'll order a bunch today.

Thanks again, AJ!

Hmm.. looks yummy!!!

A question for you AJ: when I made concentrate yesterday I found that all the vineagr settled at the bottom of the jar after cooling off, so the concentrate is floating on the vinegar, so to say. Looking at your pics this didn't seem to happen to you, did it? Your concentrate looks far more homogenic. I am wondering if I made a mistake, but I stuck to your recipe, blended it all thoroughly and pressure canned it for 15 mins....

I can't wait to see what your choc hab concentrate will look like!!!
