Sambal Bajag

Recipe By: Judy Howle
Serving Size: 1
Preparation Time: 0:00
Categories: Hot Sauce

Amount Measure Ingredient Preparation Method
3 tablespoons oil
1/4 cup onion minced
2 tablespoons garlic minced
2 tablespoons Pequin peppers or extremely hot pepper crushed
1/3 cup fresh tomato finely minced
1 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons sugar
2 teaspoons molasses

In a small frying pan or a wok, heat the oil and stirfry the onions and garlic. After a minute or so, add the hot pepper flakes. Reduce heat and stir constantly so peppers don't burn. As soon as the flakes darken a little, add rest of ingredients, and cook and stir until most of the moisture evaporates and, as they say, "the oil returns"--about 15-20 minutes. The final product should be so well cooked you can't really detect the tomatoes. Recipe can be doubled or tripled. Keeps refrigerated for months.

Yemenite Zhug (Yemenite Hot Sauce)

Recipe By: Joan Nathan - Jewish Cooking in America
Serving Size: 1
Preparation Time: 0:00
Categories: Hot Sauce

Amount Measure Ingredient Preparation Method
1 pound serrano chile peppers
5 whole head of garlic peeled
1 bunch fresh cilantro well rinsed
1/4 teaspoon dried red pepper flakes or to taste
1/2 teaspoon powdered cumin
salt to taste
olive oil to cover

Blend in food processor. Makes + or - about a pint. Stores well in refrigerator.

Now, some variations. Use habs, seeds and all. Serranos taste wonderful but habs taste better and pack more kick. I use seeds and all, just cut off the stems.

Add some olive oil while blending. Your mileage may vary.

For "dried hot red pepper flakes" I use my other killer app, habs and Chipotles, 1 to 1, ground fine.

Does 5 whole heads of garlic seem a bit much? Resist the temptation to scrimp. Inconceivable that a C-H would be a garlic wimp.

You can't beat this combination of flavors. Add it to anything you can think of. Let your imagination run wild. I use it a lot for salad dressing bases. For me, a dab of zhug, then olive oil and lemon juice, is all a salad needs.

Uncle Steve's HOT Oil

Recipe By: Steve Nearman ~ usHOTstuff.com
Serving Size: 1
Preparation Time: 0:45
Categories: Hot & Spicy Uncle Steve's Hot Sauce

Amount Measure Ingredient Preparation Method
2.5 cups peanut oil
.5 cup walnut oil - added flavor
1 cup sesame oil
6 cloves garlic quartered
2 tablespoons smoked-dried Habanero powder
or 4 tbs. crushed Chipolte
4 tablespoons rosemary leaves crushed

Place oils in a small sauce pan over low-medium heat.

Add remaining ingredients, simmer and stir occasionally for 15-20 minutes. Do not over heat oil! If finished product is very dark, you over heated the oil. Cook until the garlic has stopped fizzing/bubbling (this indicates that the moisture has been cooked off).

For extra flavor and beauty add a large sprig of dried rosemary into an old clear wine that has been cleaned in boiling water. (This acts as a reminder to help identify what is in the bottle)

Filter oil (while still hot, it flows faster) through a milk or coffee filter into the hot, clean bottle. We use a filter lined sieve set on a funnel. If the process is taking what seams as forever, replace the filter with a new one. Try not to pour any sediment into the filter until the end (it will clog the fine filter). Let sediment sit in filter and drip out over night.

Can be used immediately, but better after a few weeks.

—————
Notes: This oil is a little different than store bought hot oil. It has a lot of flavor! Store bought is used to add heat with out disturbing the flavor of the dish to much.

Serving Ideas: Drizzle over any potato or rice dish to add flavor & heat.

Beware Hot Sauce

Recipe By: ?
Serving Size: 1
Preparation Time: 0:00
Categories: Hot & Spicy Hot Sauce

Amount Measure Ingredient Preparation Method

Habaneros (or Scotch Bonnets or any other hot chile I guess). Cover Habs with enough vinegar to cover (redundant?) and boil until the chiles turn to mush.

Drain chiles, but reserve vinegar which now has a life of its own. Puree chiles and add back enough vinegar to make it the sauce consistancy you prefer.

Add spices: ground cumin, ground coriander, ground black pepper and
garlic. That's it!

He (the cook) didn't give me portions on the spices 'cause he was making five gallons at a time, which didn't translate to my home kitchen.

XXXXX-Hot Carribbean-Style Hot Sauce

Recipe By: Steve Nearman ~ usHOTstuff.com
Serving Size: 1
Preparation Time: 0:00
Categories: Hot & Spicy Hot Sauce Sauces And Preserves

Amount Measure Ingredient Preparation Method
10 whole Naga Jolokia Peppers (fresh ok too)
5 whole Chipotle Peppers (fresh Jalapenos ok too)
2 whole papayas
3 tablespoons onion chopped
1/4 cup vinegar (+)
1 teaspoon ground allspice
2 tablespoons salt
1 tablespoon sugar
1 pinch cinnamon (can omit if desired)
1 pinch garlic
1/4 cup mustard (-)

Hydrate the dried Naga Jolokia and Chipotle peppers, remove stems. Retain approximately 1/4 cup of the liquid.

Chop all solids. Throw into blender with liquid ingredients. "Liquify" for a good, long time ... goal here is to do away with all chunks of anything.

Once mixture is very smooth, cook over very low heat for 30-60 minutes. Stir often. During this time, taste (as much as you are able to), and add add'l amounts of desired ingredients until you acheive the taste you desire. Goal is to come up with a sauce that is sweet at first taste, then leaves a healthy amount of pain as the taste fades away.

Remove from heat, cool 30-60 minutes before use.

Sause taste better after a few days of the spices blending.

—————
Notes: Like many cooks, I created this with no precise measurements ... it was a total experiment & actually turned out very well (though very painful). Please feel free to alter/experiment.
