A few years ago, I discovered that I love making hot sauces. We grow peppers (jalapeno, serrano, habanero, bell peppers) and make gallons of fermented hot sauce each year from just 50 square feet of garden. Agree about not not turning them in to paste, to avoid mold. If you're in the bay area, Serrano are spicy and easy to grow as an annual here (they don't overwinter well).
