    List of Ingredients




    12 habanero peppers
    2 Cups water, brought to boil
    2 carrots, chopped
    1 lg. onion, chopped
    6 cloves of garlic, chopped
    ½ Tbsp. canning/kosher salt
    ¼ Tbsp. of finely ground fresh black pepper
    1 lime, juiced
    8 Tbsp red wine vinegar

    Recipe



    NOTE: ALWAYS wear surgical-type gloves when making this!!!

    First, place the habaneros in boiling water and blanch for about 30 seconds. Remove and place into a bowl of ice water. Drain and rub off the skins (discard those). Cut the habanero peppers in half and scrape away the seeds. Set aside. Add the chopped onions and carrots to the boiling water and cook until the carrots are tender. Drain vegetables.

    Into your blender, combine the juice from the lime and all other ingredients. Puree until smooth. Pour into a pint jar and store in fridge. I have saved many pepper sauce jars that have narrow mouths, instead of plastic inserts (like Tabasco uses), and I refill these with this recipe. Actually, this is a great way to use up lots of the peppers at once. – I make multiple batches throughout the summer and can into pint jars. Then I open the jars and funnel into bottles (then chill them!) just before giving out as gifts during the holidays.

    PS: The recipe doubles and triples most easily.
