Instructions

Wash the peppers and trim off the stem.
Put all the ingredients in a medium pot and bring to a boil.
Simmer on low for 25 minutes.
Once cooled enough to handle safely, pour everything into a blender and blend into a smooth, saucy consistency.
Pour back into the pot and simmer another 15 minutes.
Store in a glass jar in the refrigerator. Lasts at least 6 months.

Notes

The ingredients on Frank’s say “aged cayenne peppers” so I just left mine on the counter for ten days. By the way, I know that’s not the same. That was a joke. I looked at a few recipes to learn how to make the sauce.
