One thing I&#8217;ve had a lot of remaining in the garden was habaneros. I was originally thinking about doing some salsa with them, but my tomatoes did not do very well this year and I&#8217;m out of them. Therefore, I decided to switch to trying them out as a hot sauce, which is probably a much better option in hindsight. Plus, I had a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.rickbayless.com\/recipe\/habanero-hot-sauce\/\">recipe<\/a> bookmarked that I&#8217;ve been wanting to try out. Here are the ingredients the recipe calls for:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"recipe-ingredients\">\n<li><span class=\"recipe-ingredient-quantity-unit\"><span class=\"recipe-ingredient-quantity\" data-original=\"5\">5<\/span> <span class=\"recipe-ingredient-notes\">garlic cloves, unpeeled<\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<li><span class=\"recipe-ingredient-quantity-unit\"><span class=\"recipe-ingredient-quantity\" data-original=\"1\/2\">1\/2\u00a0<\/span><span class=\"recipe-ingredient-unit\">cup<\/span><\/span> <span class=\"recipe-ingredient-notes\">peeled, roughly chopped carrot (you&#8217;ll need 1 medium carrot)<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span class=\"recipe-ingredient-quantity-unit\"><span class=\"recipe-ingredient-quantity\" data-original=\"1\/2\">1\/2\u00a0<\/span><span class=\"recipe-ingredient-unit\">cup<\/span><\/span> <span class=\"recipe-ingredient-notes\">roughly chopped white onion (you&#8217;ll need about half of a small onion)<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span class=\"recipe-ingredient-quantity-unit\"><span class=\"recipe-ingredient-quantity\" data-original=\"12\">12\u00a0<\/span><span class=\"recipe-ingredient-unit\">medium (about 5 ounces)\u00a0<\/span><\/span><span class=\"recipe-ingredient-name\">orange habanero chiles,<\/span> <span class=\"recipe-ingredient-notes\">stemmed<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span class=\"recipe-ingredient-quantity-unit\"><span class=\"recipe-ingredient-quantity\" data-original=\"1\">1\u00a0<\/span><span class=\"recipe-ingredient-unit\">cup<\/span><\/span> <span class=\"recipe-ingredient-notes\">apple cider vinegar<\/span><\/li>\n<li>1 cup water<\/li>\n<li><span class=\"recipe-ingredient-quantity-unit\"><span class=\"recipe-ingredient-quantity\" data-original=\"About 2\">About 2\u00a0<\/span><span class=\"recipe-ingredient-unit\">teaspoons<\/span><\/span> <span class=\"recipe-ingredient-notes\">Salt<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span class=\"recipe-ingredient-quantity-unit\"><span class=\"recipe-ingredient-quantity\" data-original=\"1\/4\">1\/4\u00a0<\/span><span class=\"recipe-ingredient-unit\">teaspoon<\/span><\/span> <span class=\"recipe-ingredient-notes\">Sugar<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>I had about 20 orange and red habaneros and I just decided to use all of them. Also, I didn&#8217;t have any garlic cloves to roast, so I just used minced, jarred garlic. Next, I just used a whole medium onion. Lastly, due to not paying attention, I added way more sugar than the recipe calls for, but it ended up tasting just fine!<\/p>\n<p>Basically boil the carrots, \u00a0onions, habaneros, apple cider vinegar, and water until the carrots are tender. Then, mix all of the ingredients into a blender and puree them. Finally, jar the habanero hot sauce up for later use. Though the boiling habaneros had me sniffling and coughing periodically, I was pleasantly surprised by the results in the end. The results are very tasty and the heat was tolerable for someone who likes hot things. The extra sugar I&#8217;m sure helped mellow the hot sauce out a bit, but don&#8217;t get me wrong, it is still hot!<\/p>\n\n\t\t<style type=\"text\/css\">\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 {\n\t\t\t\tmargin: auto;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 .gallery-item {\n\t\t\t\tfloat: left;\n\t\t\t\tmargin-top: 10px;\n\t\t\t\ttext-align: center;\n\t\t\t\twidth: 33%;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 img {\n\t\t\t\tborder: 2px solid #cfcfcf;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 .gallery-caption {\n\t\t\t\tmargin-left: 0;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t\/* see gallery_shortcode() in wp-includes\/media.php *\/\n\t\t<\/style>\n\t\t<div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-273 gallery-columns-3 gallery-size-thumbnail'><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='http:\/\/kevinmichaelcoy.com\/blog\/2017\/10\/15\/habanero-hot-sauce-mmmmm\/img_8947\/'><img width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"http:\/\/kevinmichaelcoy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/IMG_8947-e1508031300880-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"Hot, but tasty habanero hot sauce\" loading=\"lazy\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-1-274\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt>\n\t\t\t\t<dd class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-1-274'>\n\t\t\t\tHot, but tasty habanero hot sauce \n\t\t\t\t<\/dd><\/dl><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='http:\/\/kevinmichaelcoy.com\/blog\/2017\/10\/15\/habanero-hot-sauce-mmmmm\/img_8948\/'><img width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"http:\/\/kevinmichaelcoy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/IMG_8948-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"20 Habaneros from the Garden boiling with the onions, carrots, apple cider vinegar, and water\" loading=\"lazy\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-1-275\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt>\n\t\t\t\t<dd class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-1-275'>\n\t\t\t\t20 Habaneros from the Garden boiling with the onions, carrots, apple cider vinegar, and water\n\t\t\t\t<\/dd><\/dl>\n\t\t\t<br style='clear: both' \/>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n<!--[if lt IE 9]><script>document.createElement('video');<\/script><![endif]-->\n\t<div class=\"wp-playlist wp-video-playlist wp-playlist-light\">\n\t\t<video controls=\"controls\" preload=\"none\" width=\"878\"\n\t\t height=\"1561\"\t><\/video>\n\t<div class=\"wp-playlist-next\"><\/div>\n\t<div class=\"wp-playlist-prev\"><\/div>\n\t<noscript>\n\t<ol>\n\t\t<li><a href='http:\/\/kevinmichaelcoy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/blending-hot-sauce-480.mov'>Blending Habanero Hot Sauce<\/a><\/li>\t<\/ol>\n\t<\/noscript>\n\t<script type=\"application\/json\" class=\"wp-playlist-script\">{\"type\":\"video\",\"tracklist\":true,\"tracknumbers\":true,\"images\":true,\"artists\":true,\"tracks\":[{\"src\":\"http:\\\/\\\/kevinmichaelcoy.com\\\/blog\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2017\\\/10\\\/blending-hot-sauce-480.mov\",\"type\":\"video\\\/quicktime\",\"title\":\"Blending Habanero Hot Sauce\",\"caption\":\"Blending Habanero Hot Sauce\",\"description\":\"Blending Habanero Hot Sauce\",\"meta\":{\"length_formatted\":\"0:04\"},\"dimensions\":{\"original\":{\"width\":360,\"height\":640},\"resized\":{\"width\":878,\"height\":1561}},\"image\":{\"src\":\"http:\\\/\\\/kevinmichaelcoy.com\\\/blog\\\/wp-includes\\\/images\\\/media\\\/video.png\",\"width\":48,\"height\":64},\"thumb\":{\"src\":\"http:\\\/\\\/kevinmichaelcoy.com\\\/blog\\\/wp-includes\\\/images\\\/media\\\/video.png\",\"width\":48,\"height\":64}}]}<\/script>\n<\/div>\n\t\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We are into fall now and for me at least, the production from the garden is winding down.
