Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Peppers

    Wash the fresh habanero and jalapeño peppers thoroughly. Remove the stems, and if you prefer a milder sauce, you can remove some of the seeds.

  2. 2

    Chop Vegetables

    Peel and chop the garlic, carrot, and onion into small pieces to help them blend easily.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Sauté Vegetables

    In a medium pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped garlic, carrot, and onion. Sauté for about 5 minutes until the onion becomes translucent.

  2. 4

    Blend Ingredients

    In a blender, combine the sautéed vegetables, fresh habanero and jalapeño peppers, white vinegar, lime juice, salt, sugar, and black pepper. Blend until smooth.

Bottling

  1. 5

    Transfer to Bottle

    Carefully pour the blended mixture into a clean bottle using a funnel. Seal the bottle tightly.

  2. 6

    Let it Rest

    Allow the sauce to sit at room temperature for at least 24 hours to let the flavors meld together. Store in the refrigerator after the initial resting period.
