The pepper harvest is in and the first batches of the 2024 hot sauce is ready.

This year we are making two hot sauces. The first is a Red ‘Manzana’ Pepper. Grown in Oakland by our head camera tech Grant. The pepper is named for its apple shape and black seeds.
We choose it for the upfront sweet, tangy, paprika flavor and black pepper finish.

The second sauce is made with Red Paper Lantern Habaneros. Definitely a hotter pepper less bite than the traditional orange Habanero.
These peppers were grown in the Berkeley Hills. This sauce has a red dot on the bottle .

Both sauces used a classic 50% apple cider vinegar cook, with onions and carrots and garlic for sweetness.

Enjoy.
