Ingredients (use vegan versions):
- 10 teaspoons water
- 10 teaspoons white vinegar
- 4 teaspoons hot pepper powders of choice (cayenne, chipotle, smoked pepper, etc.)
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
Directions:
This is called Teaspoon Hot Sauce for obvious
reasons. Measure everything in teaspoon
measurements. It is really easy to make
your own hot sauce, just use an empty
bottle from previously store-bought hot sauce
to put your own in.
*For milder sauce, use 3 teaspoons of hot pepper
powder.
**For Hot sauce, use 4 teaspoons of cayenne
pepper, or 3 teaspoon of cayenne and 1 teaspoon
chipotle powder. Just work with it. If you
have a favorite smoked pepper powder, use
that.
***For extra hot sauce, use 5 teaspoon of
whatever you want---but be forewarned---it
gets hotter the longer it sits. Many days
later you may have a fire on your hands in
the shape of a bottle of hot sauce.
As for the garlic, salt, and vinegar, you can
use more or less, to taste. I found the
measurements above to be just about
perfect. If you want your sauce thicker, use
less water/vinegar.
You can also add lime juice, or peach, or
whatever kind of fruit flavor you want--by
the teaspoon, of course, until you have the right
mix.
Serves: Fits easily into a 6 ounce. bottle
Preparation time: 15 minutes
