John E Miller Posted January 14, 2021 Share Posted January 14, 2021 Anyone on this forum into making hot sauce, or is there already a thread about this someone can point me to? Growing chillies too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malter White Posted January 14, 2021 Share Posted January 14, 2021 I'm not a sauce maker but if I was a betting man I'd put a dollar on @Green Blob would be a sauce maker. He might be able to share some ideas. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Classic Brewing Co Posted January 14, 2021 Share Posted January 14, 2021 HABANERO CHILLI NECTRANE JAM I make lots of hot sauces but here's one you can use with Cheese Plates/Cold Meats etc. It cab be as hot or mild/sweet as you like. Ingredients 6-7 ripe nectarines, chopped but not peeled (about 4 1/2 cups chopped) 2 habanero peppers, de-stemmed and rough chopped, seeds and all 1 cup sugar 1 box powdered low or no sugar pectin (1.75 ounce) Instructions Put all the chopped nectarines and the chopped habanero peppers in a heavy pot or large saucepan. Add the sugar and 1/3 cup water. Stir to combine and heat on medium high heat until the mixture boils. Turn down the heat a bit and boil gently for about 10 minutes, stirring often, until the fruit has softened. Use an immersion blender to partially puree the mixture. Be careful, as it is super hot. I like to leave the jam with a few chunks still left in it for a nice texture. Put the jam back over medium heat and add the pectin. Stir well and bring back to a boil. Boil one minute longer. Fill clean jars with the hot jam. If you are going to freeze the jam, leave 1/2 inch free at the top to allow for expansion as it freezes. Cover and let the jams sit until they are at room temperature. Store in the refrigerator for up to 3 weeks or in the freezer for up to a year.

John E Miller Posted January 24, 2021 Author Share Posted January 24, 2021 Fermented birdseye sauce. I love this stuff. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Classic Brewing Co Posted January 24, 2021 Share Posted January 24, 2021 Hi John, Nice looking plant, good colour on the sauce. I cannot get enough of Chilli no matter which way. This is HOT Chilli sauce made from home grown Habanero & Carolina Reaper. It will give you blisters. Is has limited uses due to it's heat however as you know used correctly its a great addition to anything. In case you are wondering my nickname is Commodore. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John E Miller Posted January 25, 2021 Author Share Posted January 25, 2021 Nice! I've liked spicy stuff since I was a kid, but only recently getting really excited about it. The more you eat it the more heat tolerant you become I reckon. Do you grow those chillies? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Classic Brewing Co Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 Hi John, Yes I grow all sorts & I have a dehydrator & I dry them along with tomatoes & of course Beef Jerky. I have quite a few photos & recipes of all. Cheers Phil 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John E Miller Posted January 25, 2021 Author Share Posted January 25, 2021 Cool. I am only growing birdseye at the moment, but am keen to try some different ones. Have you ever used chili in beer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Classic Brewing Co Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 I made a Mexican Cerveza last year & ground up some Cayenne Chillis about 7gm, after dry hopping I chucked it in a muslin bag & hoped for the best. Weeks later at first tasting I thought I had just wasted 23l of beer, but after a couple of mouthfuls & numb tongue & lips, you sorta got used to it, only a few mates thought it was OK but not sure I would do it again without more research. A lot of people muck about with coffee & honey etc, but I am not a fan, probably like most of us we are after the bitterness & hop kicks. I will stick with putting chilli in my Con carne & beef jerky for now. Although I do lots of curries & stirfrys so always got chilli on hand.

ben 10 Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 As an aside I was trained in the use of Oleoresin Capsicum spray recently. This involved a drect exposure followed by an obstacle course of sorts. Punches, kicks, batons, handcuffing then a radio. Absolutely BRUTAL stuff. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Classic Brewing Co Posted January 31, 2021 Share Posted January 31, 2021 Hey John, You have to be a chilli lover to make it that hot, but I have cut down the amount & also substituted the flakes for my own grown dried chilli's crushed but still Most of your mates won't touch it so that's a good thing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
