Chef's Note
- This is a great base recipe for a variety of hot sauces. Use the same ratio of any chili peppers to adjust heat level. Experiment with different vinegars or try adding more (or less) honey!
- Homemade sauces with fresh ingredients like this one are a healthy way to add a punch of flavor to dishes without adding extra fat and salt.
