Makes 1.5 cups strained when I added a touch more water.
Heat Factor: HOT. Devil’s tongue peppers pack a nice punch of heat.
If you can’t find devil’s tongue peppers, use habanero peppers or scotch bonnet peppers instead. Realistically, this hot sauce recipe will work with ANY type of pepper.
pH: I measured this sauce at 4.1 pH. If you’d like to preserve the hot sauce in a water bath, I suggest adding more vinegar or a citrus, like lemon or lime juice, to achieve a pH of 3.5 or lower.
