Make Chef John's homemade Sriracha sauce with simple ingredients and drizzle it on everything for a spicy kick!
Ingredients:
  • 1 pound red jalapeno peppers, stems cut off
  • 0.5 pound red serrano peppers, stems cut off
  • 0.33333334326744 cup water
  • 4 cloves garlic, peeled
  • 3 tablespoons light brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon kosher salt
  • 0.5 cup distilled white vinegar
Instructions:
  • Combine the jalapeño and serrano peppers in a blender with water, garlic, brown sugar, and salt. Blend until smooth and well combined.
  • Pour the puree into a spacious glass jar or pitcher. Seal the container with plastic wrap and store in a cool, dark spot for 3 to 5 days. Stir and scrape the sides daily as the mixture ferments and bubbles. Reseal after each stirring and continue fermenting until bubbly.
  • Pour the fermented mixture back into the blender, add vinegar, and blend until silky smooth. Strain the mixture through a fine-mesh strainer into a saucepan, pressing to extract all the flavorful pulp. Discard any seeds, skin, or pulp left in the strainer.
  • Pour the sauce into a small saucepan. Heat over medium heat, stirring frequently, until it reaches your desired thickness, which should take about 5 to 10 minutes.
  • Allow the sauce to cool to room temperature to thicken slightly. Transfer the sauce to jars or bottles and refrigerate.
  • Savor the delicious flavors!
