Inferno Sauce

Warning: This will probably be the hottest hot sauce you have ever tasted. A little goes a long way.

Ingredients

  • 40 Scotch Bonnet chillies, stemmed
  • 6 tablespoons olive oil
  • 20 garlic cloves, peeled and coarsely chopped
  • 3 teaspoon molasses
  • 50ml honey dissolved in 100ml warm water
  • 2 teaspoon turmeric
  • Juice of 6 fresh limes
  • 200ml tomato pasata
  • 250ml distilled white vinegar
  • 2 tablespoon salt, or to taste
  • 6 tablespoons Dijon-style mustard

Method

  1. Combine all the ingredients in a blender and puree until smooth. Correct the seasoning, adding more salt or molasses to taste.
  2. Transfer the sauce to a clean bottle. You can use it right away, but the flavor will improve if you let it age for a few days.
  3. Inferno Hot Sauce will keep almost indefinitely, refrigerated or at room temperature. Just give it a good shake before using.

Makes about 1.5 litres
