  • 1 tablespoon salt (kosher or sea salt recommended)
  • 1 cup white vinegar

Instructions

5 steps

  1. Prepare the Peppers

    Wash the fresh red chili peppers, removing the stems. If you prefer a milder sauce, you can remove some seeds.

    In a blender, combine the chili peppers, garlic, sugar, salt, and vinegar.

    Blend until smooth, adjusting consistency with water if necessary.
  3. Cook the Mixture

    Pour the blended mixture into a saucepan and bring to a simmer over medium heat.
