we managed to get our hands on some fresh cayenne peppers at the west allis farmer's market. which means bryan will be whipping up a batch of hot sauce. we had gotten some through our csa last year, and tried out our own hot sauce. it's not a difficult process, and the results are fantastic.
the sauce, for those of you unfamiliar, is similar to tabasco sauce. however, making your own allows you to adjust the hot to vinegar ratio - not to mention the obvious benefits of being way more delicious (and natural). the resulting flavor brings out the depth of the pepper. we make it spicy but not too spicy. in general, we prefer our chiles to taste like chiles and not nothing - just searing heat.
splash some on mac and cheese, douse your chicken wings, spice up an autumn soup... once you've had the good stuff, it's hard to keep it off your food. :)
