Ingredients
1. Fresh Hot Peppers
The star ingredient of Vietnamese hot pepper sauce is, of course, the hot peppers. You can use any type of hot pepper you prefer, but traditionally, Vietnamese hot pepper sauce is made with Thai chilies. These small peppers pack a lot of heat, so if you prefer a milder sauce, you can use a combination of Thai chilies and jalapeños. For a spicier sauce, try using habanero peppers. Make sure to wear gloves when handling hot peppers to avoid getting the spicy oils on your skin.
2. Garlic
Garlic adds a pungent and savory flavor to the hot pepper sauce. Use fresh garlic cloves for the best flavor.
3. Sugar
Sugar helps to balance out the spiciness of the hot peppers and adds a touch of sweetness to the sauce. Palm sugar is commonly used in traditional Vietnamese cooking, but you can also use regular granulated sugar.
4. Salt
Salt is a crucial ingredient in any sauce as it enhances the overall flavor. Use sea salt or kosher salt for the best results.
5. Vinegar
Vinegar adds acidity and tanginess to the sauce. Rice vinegar is the most commonly used type of vinegar in Vietnamese hot pepper sauce, but you can also use white vinegar or apple cider vinegar.
Instructions
1. Prepare the peppers
Wash the hot peppers and remove the stems. If you prefer a milder sauce, you can also remove the seeds.
2. Blend the ingredients
In a blender or food processor, combine the hot peppers, garlic, sugar, salt, and vinegar. Blend until you have a smooth and thick sauce.
3. Cook the sauce
Pour the blended sauce into a saucepan and cook over medium heat for 5-10 minutes, stirring occasionally. This will help develop the flavors and thicken the sauce.
4. Cool and store
Let the sauce cool completely before transferring it to a clean jar or bottle. Store in the refrigerator for up to a month.
Customize your sauce
You can add other ingredients to your hot pepper sauce to make it truly your own. Some popular additions include lemongrass, ginger, and fish sauce. You can also adjust the heat level by using more or fewer hot peppers.
Now that you have your own homemade Vietnamese hot pepper sauce, you can enjoy it on all your favorite dishes or give it as a unique and delicious gift to friends and family.
