Hot Pepper Vinegar
Equipment
- A small bottle, preferably with a shaker top (I reused one from a commercial hot sauce); the opening needs to be large enough to insert the peppers into the bottle.
Ingredients
- Fresh Tabasco peppers - choose ones that are pale green to pale yellow
- White wine vinegar
Instructions
- Harvest enough peppers to fill the bottle.
- Carefully remove the cap with stem from each pepper. I gently pried one side loose, and they came off when I eased the other side loose.
- Rinse the peppers and drain in a strainer.
- Remove the shaker top from the bottle and set aside. Insert peppers one at a time into the bottle. Periodically shake and tap the bottle to settle the peppers.
- When the bottle is full, use a small funnel to pour in the vinegar. Replace the shaker top and cap. Let sit for 2-3 weeks or longer before using.
- Splash on greens or other vegetables as desired.
