Hubby’s Habanero-Jalapeno-Serrano Hot Sauce
We still have Habanero, Jalapeno, and Serrano peppers from when the Hubs made his 3-Hot Pepper Salsa so he decided to make Hot Sauce next. The flavors are good, It’s hot and spicy without scorching your mouth. Oh you’ll feel it but it doesn’t stick to the point of death, HAH! The only thing I don’t like about it is it’s kinda thick and it would probably much better to spoon the sauce out of a mason jar. The thick consistency makes it difficult to pour on food like fried chicken. So if you make this, transfer the finished product in a jar or anything with a bigger opening.
