Oh, I'm going to need a field report from this one! How is it?

5 oz / 150ml hot sauce bottle with a black top on on a red and black background. Label has a chain hanging vertically, with the last link broken. Below the broken link is a mango. The sauce is named "Mango Unchained".  The background repeats the chain motif that's on the label.

I might have a problem. Or I might be a bad person. People say I only make #hotsauce for the names.

They may be right.

Nice mango flavour with a good punch.

2 month #ferment
390g Hand picked #hotpeppers from Canada Linc Farms
265g Mango
75g Ripe (yellow) Lime
3.5% brine
Brown sugar to taste

An assortment of 12 hot sauce bottles in various colours (brown, yellow ,peach, orange, reds), some with small numbered batch labels.

One sample from about 1/2 of this year's #hotsauce batches, 2 month #ferment. Unfortunately lost batch 132 to contamination. Nice range of flavours & heat. Fruity to savoury, medium-low to scorching. Most #chilis from Canada Linc Farms. Some from our garden.

Those are beauties! And you're right in another post, their smell is deceptively inviting. ๐Ÿ˜†

Great combo. It's going to be a big hit for those who can stand the heat!

Nothing quite captures the spirit of Christmas like incredibly tasty bio warfare.

We seem to be working the same garden. Looking good. Just a few more weeks. A few more...

Ah, nuts. Gotta harvest them now.

#chilipeppers and #hotsauce will never abandon you.

Stay strong.

Someone's doing their best to make me jealous of their fantastic harvest!

I think it worked.

Today I learned that when you #ferment cacao beans with #chili peppers, then roast the beans, they are absolutely delicious. Chocolaty, spicy. Amazing.

The pulverized beans will be added to a #hotsauce made with chocolate #habanero and black lime. Name may be Hot Cocoa or Holy Mole.

Nice Haul! Wish I had the space and climate to get something even nearly approaching this!

Truth.

But wash no less than three times. Even then, be careful where and who you touch!

Yes, that would absolutely require masking. Maybe double masking.

Those who taste your sauce will praise the travails in making it.

Haven't sampled them yet, but apparently they're on the same level as a serrano pepper depending on the individual pepper (10K-23K Scoville).

I admire, but cannot understand, the restraint.

With over 20 batches in various stages of #fermentation I'm running out of room, and vessels. And I still have some from my garden that need picking and saucing.

I don't have a problem. I can stop any time.

But why would I want to? ๐Ÿ˜ˆ
