I'd like to see if anyone has some homemade habanero sauce recipes--not for myself (obviously) but for my best friend. He always says he wants flames licking his lips. Personally, I could do without the after effects, but spice is always nice.

snowy - that is sad. i feel for your tastebuds.
as for homemade recipes...
i picked a handfull of teeny tiny peppers out of my wild garden. i have no idea what kind they were. i had planted jalapenos there before, but these were not big and green, they were tiny and red... so anyway,
take your handful of peppers,
put them in the cuisinart or blender
with a garlic clove or 3 for flavor,
add enough vinegar to achieve sauce consistency
blend until uniformly liquid.
store in a jar or bottle in the fridge
and watch out!!
i let mine sit for at least a day before using.
if you want a milder sauce,
remove seeds and "ribs" from the pepper before blending.
*and as for my favorite hot sauce... cholula. it doesn't use habaneros. pequins i think. it's not too hot, it just yummy.
