Bottled-Style Mango Habanero Hot Sauce
Ingredients
2 ripe mangos, peeled and chopped
2-3 fresh orange habanero peppers (stemmed and seeded for less heat, or leave seeds for maximum heat)
½ cup white vinegar
¼ cup water
2 cloves garlic, smashed
¼ cup chopped white onion
1 tbsp honey
1 tsp kosher salt
Instructions
- Simmer Aromatics: In a medium saucepan, combine the chopped mango, habaneros, garlic, white onion, vinegar, and water. Bring to a gentle boil over medium-high heat.
- Cook Down: Reduce heat and let simmer for 10-15 minutes until the mango and onions are completely soft.
- Blend: Transfer the entire mixture to a blender. Add the honey and kosher salt. Blend on high speed for 2 full minutes until the sauce is incredibly smooth and emulsified.
- Strain (Optional): For a commercial-style texture, press the sauce through a fine-mesh strainer to remove any remaining pulp.
- Bottle and Store: Pour the hot sauce into a sterilized glass bottle or jar. Let cool to room temperature, then seal and refrigerate. The flavor deepens after 24 hours.
