With winter rapidly approaching I thought I would share a recipe for something different, that will help warm you up; Red Fresno Pepper Hot Sauce. The recipe is easy and it tastes good. That has earned it a place in the rotation at my house. It is similar in taste and texture to Sriracha.
Be sure to see the notes at the end.
As noted in the body of the recipe, the recipe is by Chef Lee Gregory and I found it on the Plateonline.com website.
Here is picture of the finished product:

The Roosevelt
– Richmond, VA., USA
Yield: 1 qt
Fresno chilies, stemmed and sliced,
2 lb
Salt 3 Tbsp
Sugar 1 Tbsp
Cider Vinegar 2 c
Season peppers with salt and sugar
and cryovac or seal in an airtight jar.
Ferment
for about 7 days.
Puree
peppers with their liquid, add vinegar and strain.
Reserve
refrigerated for up to 1 month.
Notes:
I cut the recipe in half and it worked perfectly.
I cryovaced the peppers. If you do so, use a large bag to allow for expansion by the gasses, caused by fermentation. I will do this next time in a ball jar and either leave the lid on loosely to allow the gasses to escape or will open the lid twice a day to "burp" the peppers.
The fermentation is done at room temperature.
I hope you enjoy.
Until next time
Bon Appetit
