How to Make Mom's Exceptionally Hot Tabasco Sauce
- Fill a clean 1-pint glass canning jar halfway with white vinegar.
- Daily, harvest bright orange Tabasco peppers from your garden.
- Protect your hands! Wear latex gloves while handling the peppers.
- Gently hold each pepper by the stem with one hand.
- Squeeze the juice of the pepper into the jar, then add the pepper itself.
- Repeat steps 2-5 until the jar is completely full.
- Strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into clean bottles with small spouts.
- (Optional) To ensure safety, you can further sterilize the bottles and lids before filling them. However, since you're using a vinegar solution and sterile jars, this step isn't strictly necessary.
- Store in a cool, dark place. Allow the sauce to stand for at least a week to develop its full flavor. Use with caution!
