Method
- Start by thoroughly washing the jalapenos and garlic to remove any dirt or bacteria.
- Chop the jalapenos into small pieces.
- In a blender, combine the chopped jalapenos, minced garlic, salt, and water. Blend until smooth to create a thick paste.
- Pour the blended mixture into a clean glass jar, leaving about an inch of headspace at the top.
- Seal the jar loosely with the lid or cover it with cheesecloth.
- Place the jar in a cool, dark place for 5 to 7 days, checking daily for bubbles.
- After a week, taste the sauce to check for desired tanginess.
- Once fermented, blend the sauce again for a smooth consistency and transfer it to a clean bottle for storage.
Notes
This sauce is versatile and can be used to enhance a variety of dishes such as tacos, stews, and marinades.
