Chilli sauce reviews

Sauce making time. At last! First harvest of Ghost peppers and Praprika's as they are the ones starting to be ready for harvest.

Mango Ghost sauce.

Only thing not pictured here used was a teaspoon of brown sugar. After taste testing I didn't add the white pepper at all. Mango and ghost fruitiness played off well against each other with the acid of lime without pepper. Probably dial back the garlic a little bit on next batch.

Ingredients: Used only 3 various age and size ghosts as this is one to share with the wife. She still bites.

When making a chilli sauce using fresh reapers from the garden. Use gloves when chopping them up and don’t go to the gents after to catch a p**s. Dipping it in a glass of milk does not help to stop the burn.. :crying:
Ha finally I can justify peeing sitting down

A few, maybe more than a few, years ago I was selling sauces for a living.

I was making a batch and was removing the seeds by hand without gloves.

I ended up in anaphylaxis in the emergency room.
 
Made a few bottles a week or two ago:

100% reaper mash (6 months aged), vinegar and some salt, zero mash removal.

Also prepped a few bottles with mash removed. Tastes better than any commercial stuff and way better and hotter than johnny hexburg.

My loot from the chilli festival last weekend. Didn't get much sauce as I have a ton of chilli's on the ferment and the fridge is already packed.

Had to get this medium sweat Bombay style sauce from Happy Hatter, but the chilli mead is amazing! Honey mead with scotch bonnet and habernero infusion.

Not sauce related but obligatory chilli eating competition shot with happy hatter doing the MC duties before the bands took over. Definitely recommend the festival.

Plenty of reaper vodka shot's and Moruga scorpion infused ale's were consumed throughout the day. Perhaps the best event/festival's I have been to thus far. Band selection was great after the chilli eating competition.

Looks awesome!!!
 
Thanks for reminding me. Got one of these from a friend a few weeks back. After the first +-10 minutes of feeling like a furnace, I thought it was over. Then it felt like I had a boiling pot in my belly for the next 12 hours. I would not recommend, but I'll probably do something similar somewhere in the future.
