How to Make Jalapeno Hot Sauce Medium Hot

  1. Halve the jalapenos and remove the seeds and membranes for a less intense heat (optional).
  2. Blanch the jalapenos in boiling water for 30 seconds to soften them. Immediately transfer to an ice bath to stop the cooking process.
  3. Juice one lime. Combine the blanched jalapenos, lime juice, and remaining ingredients in a blender.
  4. Blend on high speed until completely smooth. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
  5. Transfer the hot sauce to a clean, wide-mouth jar. Store in the refrigerator for at least 24 hours to allow the flavors to meld. Enjoy!
