This master hot sauce recipe is the ultimate way to preserve the fiery heat of seasonal chillies. By using a simple fermentation technique, you can transform fresh jalapeños, habaneros, or serranos into a punchy, complex condiment that rivals any shop-bought bottle. The process allows the natural sugars in the peppers to develop a sophisticated savoury profile, balanced perfectly by the sharp tang of distilled white vinegar.
As a versatile vegan staple, this homemade sauce is an excellent way to customise your heat levels to suit your palate. Whether you prefer a mild kick for your morning eggs or a searing heat for Mexican-inspired dishes, this fermented blend is a rewarding project for any home cook. Keep a bottle in the fridge to bring a vibrant, zesty lift to your favourite plant-based meals.

Ingredients for Master Hot Sauce Recipe
450g stemmed fresh chillies (such as jalapeño, serrano, Fresno, or habanero
use one variety or mix and match)
2 tablespoons kosher salt
350ml distilled white vinegar
How to make Master Hot Sauce Recipe
Pulse chillies and kosher salt in a food processor until a coarse purée forms. Transfer to a 1-quart glass jar, loosely screw on lid, and let stand at room temperature for 12 hours to ferment slightly.
Stir in vinegar and loosely screw on lid. Let chilli mixture stand at room temperature for at least 1 day and up to 7 days. (Taste it daily; the longer it sits, the deeper the flavour becomes.)
Purée mixture in a food processor or blender until smooth, about 1 minute. Place a fine-mesh sieve inside a funnel. Strain mixture through sieve into a clean glass bottle. (Hot sauce will become thinner and may separate after you strain it; shake vigorously before each use.) DO AHEAD: Can be made up to 4 months ahead. Keep refrigerated.
