Speaking of fermented hot sauce, do you have some recommendations? I've been trying to find a way to recreate Frank's buffalo sauce but pretty much every recipe found online uses Frank's buffalo sauce itself as an ingredient :-). I suspect the secret is some long-running fermentation process sorcery.
- tptacek 3y agoI just dump a bunch of peppers into a kimchi bucket, ferment, then boil it out with vinegar and stuff. There's not much science to mine. :)
- 7thpower 3y agoGonna need a recipe, friend. Gotta try it. I’ve made fermented hot sauce before and it was okay, but I think I overcomplicated it.
- tptacek 3y agoSerious Eats has you covered here. I use whole peppers, not a mash, and I do it in a small plastic kimchi bucket with an airlock. I simmer (reduce a little bit) because I'm a chicken, and because it's an opportunity to adjust the seasoning. https://www.seriouseats.com/fermented-hot-sauce-how-to https://www.seriouseats.com/fermented-hot-sauce-how-to
- BoiledCabbage 3y agoAre you trying to make Frank's Buffalo Sauce or Frank's Hot Sauce? Because the original Buffalo Sauce used hot sauce as an ingredient. While it's not known what original hot sauce was used when it was created, the staple hot sauce for buffalo wings has been Frank's for many decades. Buffalo sauce is essentially Frank's Hot Sauce, butter and depending some garlic powder. People can add a bit more too it, but the sauce really was hot sauce, butter and some powder. Now if you're asking how to make Frank's Hot Sauce - yah that's a whole different thing. Which I have no idea of.
