Homemade Hot Sauce

TIME: 15 mins LEVEL: easy CALORIES: 59 YIELD: 1 jar

Making your own homemade hot sauce can´t be easier. 15 minutes, 1 pot and a handful of ingredients. This sauce also lasts for weeks in the fridge and freezes well.

There are so many great ways to use hot sauce – as a marinade for chicken, as a burger sauce, or even as a salad dressing. We also love mixing it in with a bit of mayo or mixing it into ground meat to make spicy hamburger patties or meatballs.

If you like your hot sauce on the tamer side, you can use less chillies or choose ones that are milder in heat. Red thai, cayenne or jalapeno would also work well, just adjust the quantity accordingly depending on your preferred spiciness.
