Time P3DT35m

Yield 24

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 pound red jalapeno peppers, stems cut off
½ pound red serrano peppers, stems cut off
4 cloves garlic, peeled
3 tablespoons light brown sugar
1 tablespoon kosher salt
⅓ cup water
½ cup distilled white vinegar

Steps:

  • Chop jalapeno and serrano peppers, retaining seeds and membranes, and place into a blender with garlic, brown sugar, salt, and water. Blend until smooth, pulsing several times to start.
  • Transfer puree into a large glass container such as a large jar or pitcher. Cover container with plastic wrap and place into a cool dark location for 3 to 5 days, stirring once a day. The mixture will begin to bubble and ferment. Scrape down the sides during each stirring. Rewrap after every stirring and return to a cool, dark place until mixture is bubbly.
  • Pour fermented mixture back into blender with vinegar; blend until smooth. Strain mixture through a fine mesh strainer into a saucepan, pushing as much of the pulp as possible through the strainer into the sauce. Discard remaining pulp, seeds, and skin left in strainer.
  • Place saucepan on a burner and bring sauce to a boil, stirring often, until reduced to your desired thickness, 5 to 10 minutes. Skim foam if desired.
  • Remove saucepan from heat and let sauce cool to room temperature. Sauce will thicken a little when cooled. Transfer sauce to jars or bottles and refrigerate.

This sriracha sauce is amazing! I made it last night and it was the perfect addition to my tacos. It was spicy, but not too spicy, and it had a great flavor. I will definitely be making this again.

This sriracha sauce is amazing! It's so easy to make and it tastes just like the store-bought stuff. I love that I can control the heat level, too. I made a batch with half the amount of chili peppers and it was still plenty spicy for me. This is def
