SculleryMade Hot Sauce

“Woe to the cook whose sauce has no sting.”
Geoffrey Chaucer

True in the 1300’s … and as true today as then!

Adding a spoonful of this hot sauce will give your hollandaise a kick, make your Bloody Mary soar, turn a plain ole gravy wild and give your salsa something to sing about! … too much?! Try it and then decide!

I am not a fan of super-hot heat, so by adding ginger to the mix and Burren Balsamic’s Rhubarb and Ginger balsamic vinegar adds a tangy and fiery spiciness without annihilating the tastebuds! If you are a fan of hot hot heat, add a naga viper pepper or an infinity chilli to the mix, but you’re on your own there!

In the recipe, I’ve suggested straining the sauce through a sieve to remove any lumps & tomato seeds. When you do this, you’re left with a rich paste of tomato, ginger and chilli seeds. Mixed with a tablespoonful of Broighter Gold chilli infused oil, this paste makes a great marinade for roasted meats. I’ve used it on Irish Moiled Beef Brisket and from the roast juices made a rich gravy using Kinnegar Brewing’s RyePA … have a go at that too with this recipe I’ve shared before, skipping the dry rub marinade suggested there.

       

Enjoy!!
