What do you suggest for Hot Sauce Next Year
Comments (2)What's a "7-Pot?" I've stopped using vinegar in my sauces and salsas and started using lime and Goya Bitter Orange juice. Goes great with habs. Gives a nice fruity overtone....See MoreSauce suggestions
Comments (8)Here is one of the best simple hot sauce recipes I have come across that meets your criteria (courtesy of Emeril). You can adjust the heat by the number and type of peppers you add. Ken Ingredients * 20 tabasco or serrano chiles, stemmed and cut crosswise into 1/8-inch slices, or 12 very ripe red jalapenos (about 10 ounces) * 1 1/2 tablespoons minced garlic * 3/4 cup thinly sliced onions * 3/4 teaspoon salt * 1 teaspoon vegetable oil * 2 cups water * 1 cup distilled white vinegar Directions Combine the peppers, garlic, onions, salt and oil in a non-reactive saucepan over high heat. Saute for 3 minutes. Add the water and continue to cook, stirring occasionally, for about 20 minutes, or until peppers are very soft and almost all of the liquid has evaporated. (Note: this should be done in a very well-ventilated area!) Remove from the heat and allow to steep until mixture comes to room temperature. In a food processor, puree the mixture for 15 seconds, or until smooth. With the food processor running, add the vinegar through the feed tube in a steady stream. Taste and season with more salt, if necessary. (This will depend on the heat level of the peppers you use as well as the brand of vinegar used.) Strain the mixture through a fine mesh sieve and then transfer to a sterilized pint jar or bottle and secure with an airtight lid. Refrigerate. Let age at least 2 weeks before using. Can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 6 months....See Moregrowing tomatoes to make sauce....need suggestions
Comments (9)You should visit the GW Harvest forum for their input. You can make sauce out of any tomato, but generally a DET type will crop all its fruits in a short period of time, It's convenient because they give you a large crop all at once. Beyond that, you might choose meatier types of tomatoes that have less seeds and gel. There a LOT to choose from. On LI, we're a zone 7 climate, and because we're coastal our gardens are effected by humidity, particularly in August when it seems like the onshore breezes seem to wane in the evenings--mildew and airborne pathogens take hold of the garden. A DET with a shorter DTM, if timed right, will do its bulk of cropping by early August, and with that you're going to escape the bulk of problems that typically set into the gardens by the third or fourth week of August.

Comments (15)Oh, Deedles, yes, it needs to come out. I think that was all happening during one of your big decision times so it could have slipped by you, and understandably so! Instead of locking the sheets together to make the continuous pattern, they were installed in straight lines and the gaps were filled in with loose tiles. See below. But I have been lucky, and if my biggest kitchen remodel problem is an extra $600 or so in tile (he is ripping out and fixing the wall) and paying a new installer then I really can't be that upset. My GC is nice and does good work, but some of the finishing pretty stuff is not his strong point. If I had picked plain subways like I had initially thought, probably no problems at all. Thanks, andreak1000! When I scroll past the before pics I almost can't believe it's the same kitchen, even though the layout changes were limited to mostly a few inches here and there, and moving the fridge. Haven't tried the oven method yet, though I understand it's great. We so rarely eat red meat, let alone fried or comfort food, that I can't justify loosing that great crusty sear and grease to be healthier or easier. They are definitely grandmas meatballs, but I'm glad I was a little off on the sauce with the diced tomatoes. I probably would have been sobbing into my pasta if it tasted like hers, it's only been a little over a year and we were pretty close for most of my life. Less so the last number of years while she lived in FL, but being the oldest grandchild I had many expiriences and memories that the younger ones just didnt have, especially with my grandfather who passed away when I was 12. It's going to be a while before I make this again, I haven't cried so much in many months. Wasn't expecting that, though I knew I'd think of grandma....See More
