I added 1 dried habanero to the mix and didn’t change anything else. It was awesome! Next time I am going to add more habaneros and double the batch because it didn’t last long in my house.
I also didn’t strain it.

Just needs to be alittle hotter for me.
Other than that it is a good starter,and I add more chiles for a more hotter sauce.

This is a “keeper” of a recipe! I did tweek it by adding more garlic and had a string of homegrown, dried peppers to use. This is easy and one can very the experience by the type and quantity of peppers used. By the way,
I elect NOT to strain it! Love the texture too! *****
