Sunny's Red Fire Sauce
- 4 ounces jalapeno peppers, halved
- 4 ounces serrano peppers, halved
- 2 red bell peppers, halved
- 1 small red onion, peeled and quartered
- 1 large tomato, halved
- 2 cloves garlic, smashed
- 1 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
- 1/4 teaspoon sugar
- Kosher salt
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- On a large baking sheet with sides, add the jalapenos, serranos, bell peppers, onions and tomatoes.
- Place the garlic under the cavities of the peppers to shield them from direct heat.
- Roast in the oven for 15 to 20 minutes.
- In a medium pot set over high heat, add the vegetables from the roasting pan, the vinegar, and enough water to just cover the vegetables.
- Bring to a hard boil, and boil until the liquid is reduced by half, 15 to 20 minutes.
- Remove the pepper stems from the pot.
- Pour the remaining vegetables and liquid from the pot to a blender, and blend until smooth.
- Wet a paper towel with water and squeeze out as much water as possible.
- Line the bottom of a fine mesh sieve with the paper towel in one layer.
- Place the sieve over a large bowl.
- Pour in the puree from the blender and let the puree slowly drip into the bowl beneath, about 30 minutes.
- Discard any remaining pulp.
- Add the sugar and stir.
- Taste the hot sauce and add salt, if needed.
- Refrigerate for up to 2 weeks.
