Habanero Hot Sauce Recipe
  1. Heat the olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium-low heat. Add the diced onion and whole garlic cloves. Sauté for about 2 minutes until the onion is translucent and fragrant.

  2. Add the habanero peppers and tomatoes to the pan. Stir to combine and cook for another 5-6 minutes, allowing the peppers and tomatoes to soften slightly.

  3. Pour in the water and vinegar, and add the spices. Let the mixture simmer for an additional 5 minutes, or until the peppers and vegetables are tender.

  4. Remove the pan from the heat and let it cool slightly for about 5 minutes. Transfer the contents to a blender.

  5. Blend on high speed until smooth, about 1-2 minutes. If the sauce is too thick, add a splash of water to reach your desired consistency.

  6. FOR CREAM SAUCE: After blending smooth, then slowly drizzle in ¼ c neutral oil till emulsified into creamy saucy goodness.

  7. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Pour the hot sauce into a clean glass bottle or jar. Let it cool completely before sealing and storing in the refrigerator.
