Jalapeno and Habanero Wildcatter

 

Ingredients:

  • 1 1/2 lbs. jalapeno peppers, stemmed
  • 8 habanero peppers, stemmed
  • 2 heads garlic, chopped
  • 1 c. white vinegar
  • 1 tbsp salt (to taste)

Directions (or at least what I did):

Everything in to the food processor and pulse pulse pulse. Try to get a little closer to liquid this time. In to a medium saucepan on hot until boil, and then simmer for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. (Maybe have a beer.) Take off of the heat and hit it with the immersion blender until it’s very, very liquid. Strain in to a squeezy bottle and (at least attempt to) enjoy.

This turned out… poorly. The texture is in every way all wrong. I think I aerated it with the immersion blender. It looks and feels like baby food. Also, zero heat out of more peppers than I’ve put in anything before. Maybe it was simmering it for 20 minutes instead of 10. Hard to say.

Better luck next time, I guess?
