OK, obviously within reason. You’re not going to dump this over a bowl of tapioca pudding, but hey, to each their own. With a chili sauce like this, it can be used as a straight sauce or as a starter for something else. It’s a good idea to make a large batch of it so you can have it on hand throughout the next week or 2, tossing it into recipes as needed, or saving a TON of time during the week because now you don’t have to make a sauce! Seriously, I am going to bake a 3-pound pork tenderloin later this week and it will be great. Talk about simple. And I’ll still have a lot left. I have made versions of this sauce with fresh peppers, frozen chili peppers, and also with peppers I had lightly pickled to preserve them in salt and vinegar, and the results are all similar. As an all-purpose sauce, it brings a LOT to the table. Feel free to vary up the seasonings to your personal preference. The secret about sauce, truly, is “taste, adjust, taste, adjust!”. Add the remaining ingredients and stir. Bring to a quick boil, then reduce heat to a simmer. Cook for 30 minutes. Transfer to a food processor and process until you have a nice pureed sauce, or try a stick blender. Transfer to bottles or jars for keeping. Use this as a sauce, a hot sauce, a sauce base, etc.
Patty’s Perspective
It’s very convenient to have these types of sauces on hand during our super busy weeks. Mike is right, it helps us get a quick but delicious dinner on the table in a snap, and helps with quick late-night snacks.
