Homemade Sriracha

Thanks to Jaden Hair at Steamy Kitchen for this recipe.  She has a fantastic blog. Check it out.

The pepper plants in the back flower bed have been extremely productive. I have lots of green peppers, but not enough red ones to make sriracha using only red jalepenos.....so I gathered up a variety of cayenne, serrano, cubanelle, jalepeno, and habanero, then bought 4 lbs of red bell peppers, and  made my first batch of homemade sriracha.
 
 
Chop the Peppers
 
 
 
I used two heads of garlic
 
 
And a cup of distilled vinegar
 
 
Processed with 1.5 tablespoons of salt in food processor for 2 minutes
Placed in glass jars, covered w paper towel so it can breathe
I will ferment these for one week in a dark place.
 
 
This will be strained and more vinegar added
The solid part after straining is the sriracha
The liquid will be similar to tabasco.
I will post after its aged and let you know....
