Easy Hot Sauce
Servings: 4 people
Calories: 43kcal
Ingredients
- 20 Fresno Chilies
- 5 large garlic cloves , smashed
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 ½ cups Marukan Genuine Brewed Rice Vinegar
Instructions
- Wearing gloves, slice off the tops of the chilies.
- For a hotter hot sauce, slice the chilies into 1-inch pieces, leaving the seeds in. For milder hot sauce, slice chilies in half lengthwise, scrap out the seeds, and cut into 1–2 inch pieces. You can also do a combination of seeds and no seeds.

- Pour mixture into high-speed blender and blend, starting on low and gradually increasing the speed to high, until completely smooth, about 2 minutes, scraping down the sides of the jar as needed.
- Pour mixture though a funnel into hot sauce bottles or pour into small mason jars. Let cool completely. Cover bottles or jars. Store covered, in the refrigerator.
