How to Make Belizean Style Habanero Sauce Hot Sauce

  1. Wash and roughly chop all vegetables. Remove habanero stems and seeds for less heat (or leave them in for extreme heat!).
  2. Combine all ingredients in a blender and blend until completely smooth.
  3. Pour the mixture into a saucepan and bring to a simmer over medium heat.
  4. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce has thickened slightly. The longer you simmer, the more intense the flavor will be.
  5. Remove from heat and let the sauce cool completely.
  6. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. You can add more vinegar for tanginess, or more sugar for sweetness.
  7. Once cooled, strain the sauce through a fine-mesh sieve or cheesecloth to remove any seeds or solids (optional).
  8. Pour the sauce into sterilized bottles or jars. Store in the refrigerator for up to 2 months.
