Xxx Habanero Hot Sauce


hot sauce

12 habanero peppers
5 dried jalapeno peppers
2 papayas
3 tablespoon chopped onions
1/4 cup cider vinegar
2 tablespoon fresh lime juice
1 tablespoon salt
1 tablespoon sugar
1 pinch cinnamon
1 teaspoon chopped garlic
1/4 teaspoon colman's dry mustard

Hydrate the dried jalapenos, retain 1/4 cup of the liquid. Chop all the solids and throw into a blender with the liquid ingredients. Blend until smooth. For a milder sauce, remove seeds and veins of peppers. Once mixture is smooth, cook over very low heat for 30 - 60 minutes. Stir often. During this time, taste and add additional ingredients until you get the flavor you want. This sauce should be sweet at first and then leaves a healthy amount of pain as the sweetness fades. Cool and strain to remove seeds, pulp, etc. Store in a tightly sealed bottle in the refrigerator. Flavor and heat will improve with age.
